I think he would be an interesting FA target in the offseason. I remember him being compared to Ray but could be because they look alike. He would be an interesting player for Ray to tutor, he has done a great job helping out Rondo's shooting.

He's averaging 297 pts a game this season. They must have been facing the Nuggets or Sonics.

But I think the C's could do better in the free agent market.

Yeah I just thought he wuld be a cheap option.

I see your point though. He is still young and could become a solid roleplayer with a little teaching by Paul, Ray and Posey.

I really don't want any of these young players on this team, especially C.J. Miles, 5.0ppg? Does he play defense? How would he help this team at all?

I don't know about Miles specifically but I do like the idea of gambling on guys who were drafted out of HS but didn't get a ton of PT. Seems like a good way to get a cheap option.

Thats what I am saying we can afford to let them come along slowly.

I see him as a little less, but overall similar player to a James Jones. Wouldn't be a bad pickup but nothing special really. I do like the fact that he's a lefty though... something we don't currently have on the roster.

Its not that I don't like CJ Miles - I do and think he Jazz might be better off using him as their back up PG - but I believe he's restricted, I don't believe the Jazz want to give up on him, and don't feel we could sign him for all that cheap. I think Gerald Green could make a good gamble since his stock is low and nobody has his rights, but CJ Miles is as much of a signing as he is a gamble.

check out #1 and #3 on the list of top high school seniors (CJ Miles is #6 just behind Andrew Bynum and Andray Blatche).

I wonder if this article was written after Green had the huge McDonalds All American game.

Here's another article from before the 2005 draft I just pulled up,

re: Gerald Green: "I was blown away by watching Green on offense in a HS all-star game. I think it was the McDonald?s game. Green was dominant on offense, whether it was driving or gunning from behind the arc. He was easily the best player on the floor. The problem is shooting was all Green did. There was very little defensive hustle or passing."

In hindsight not all commentary here was the most insightful, but the guy seems to know what he was taking about

Id give him a chance if hes cheap over House

297 points, 78 boards, 53 assists, 32 steals and 8 blocks in under a minute! As Wise Lebron would say "Now them sum numbas!"
