Condolences to Big Z

I talk a lot of shit about trading the big man, but don't get it twisted; the Swagglers have nothing but love for Zydrunas Ilgauskas. What he's had to face recently, the stillbirth of his twins, is something nobody should have to deal with. The fact that it was his first children only compounds this indescribable tragedy. Our thoughts are with Z and his family as they attempt to move past this. Big props to Ilgauskas on returning to the team so quickly. It shows his level of commitment and love for the city of Cleveland. The man is a warrior, and I think I speak for all Clevelanders when I say the city wouldn't be the same without him.

James and Ilgauskas and still barely averaging 95 points per game. That's a tragedy.

Good call Pistonfan. What's the deal with the Cavs this year? By all accounts they should be an improvement on last year, but they're just looking pathetic...
