The Doc and Zen show

Ironic that Doc Rivers and Phil Jackson are both complaining about the salary-cap trade that shipped Zydrunas Ilguaskas from the Cavs to the Wizards. Everybody expects Z to get a buyout and go back to the Cavs after 30 days.

Even Rivers admitted it was great when the Celtics did the same thing with Gary Payton a few years back: “I loved it three years ago when we did it with Gary Payton if you remember, but now I think it sucks."

And how can the Lakers complain when they pulled a trade with a team whose GM at the time was Mr. Laker, Jerry West, and got Pau Gasol for a rack of balls and a case of Gatorade?
