Big Z honored at the Greater Cleveland Sports Awards

[UDcleveland]

I was listening to the Greater Cleveland Sports Awards last night by chance in the car, and they gave Z the lifetime achievement award. His speech was phenomenal. Literally tears. For as much as LeBron is great, I don't think there has or will ever be a Cavalier that is beloved in the way Zydrunas was/is.

Not sure if it was discussed in other threads, but it deserves its own. Fucking love this dude.

I'll see if I can run down the audio, but for now, here's a cool little spot done by the Greater Cleveland Sports Commission, and an interview from the event last night.

Sound quality isn't great, but here's a link to the entire event on Fox 8's facebook page. Z's speech starts at the 1 hour 30 minute mark:

Love me some big Z. I think Lebron does as well, wouldn't surprise me to see him being aware of this.

Loved me some Ilgauskas back when he played.
