Classy Move by LBJ
Strong Instagram message to Z this afternoon by LBJ.
Amazing that we're still drawing so well in the stands, but tonight is SRO. Cleveland is ready to salute Z and excited about #11 going to the rafters. Everyone here is chilling with the lebron return. I hope like hell we stay as classy CLE.

What's the highlight of Big Z's career? Being a teammate of Lebron for 7 years?

Shame that his foot always gave him problems early in his career. Seems like he was fortunate that he was able to play as long as he did.

LMAO! Just like the Philadelphia 76ers, retiring Allen Iverson's jersey, it's just to keep fans interested, etc. These bottom feeding teams really don't have anything else to hang up on the raptors anytime soon, for a long time.
Anyhow, I understand retiring A.I.'s jersey. However, this is just a pure gimmick, to keep the fans fed, since the team sucks balls.

Z was actually underrated when he was on the court even in the Lebron days when he was past his prime. The narrative always favored "Lebron + scrubs" but Z was one of the most effective centers in the eastern conference and was always at least a borderline allstar when healthy throught his Cleveland tenure.
The health inconsistencies and his lack of "sexiness" in his game always kept this dude underrated by the majority during the Lebron years IMO. When he was on the court he was a pretty effective player on a team that contended consistently for a handful of years.

Miami retired Jordan's number, Orlando retired number 6 for their fans (apart from when Ewing wanted it ) hell, even the Lakers retired the microphone. At least Big Z played for the Cavaliers.
