RE:Which big man should the Mavs pursue in the offseason?
Fron Peter Vecsey

At the same time, sources reveal trade discussion involving "Z" have taken place with the Pacers (they have the assets to pull off a multi-player deal) and the Trail Blazers. VP Jim Paxson has interest in Rasheed Wallace, but only if the controversial forward assures him he won't re-sign with Cleveland. Only kidding; it's the other way around. Just wanted to see if you were paying attention.
If "Z" stays put and continues to pass (seven assists) as he did in last Saturday's win over the 76ers, his impact on the Cavs could be bulky.
"Last year he picked up some bad habits because he was trying to score every time he touched it," notes a forward observer. "Understandable on a team that won 17 games without much direction from the head [take that, John Lucas and Keith Smart] coach."
