Chicago gets a playmaking point guard and Philly gets a young player with potential but who is in the Bulls doghouse and get some cap space as well.
More importantly they will pick up some more ping-pong balls as well hopefully resulting in Beasley or DRose.

No.

Andre Miller is a decent point guard. He's also fairly old, not even remotely close enough to make the Bulls a contending team and expensive.

The Bulls need some major changes... mainly getting a guard who gets to the line regularly and clearing time for Thomas, Noah and Gray by firing Ben Wallace from a cannon into the ocean.

They don't need to sap their youth to got non-impact players.

miller is not a no impact player. your looney if u think that. and who he uses his brains, not his athletisism, he is gonna be good for a long time.

Miller's a pg with career averages of 14 points and 7 assists a game.

He's a decent player. He's not an impact player.

And other than Hinrich's cataclysmic slump he's a downgrade at point guard for the Bulls.

It's a bad move that does little to help now and nothing long term.

I think Miller would help stabilize Chicago since Hinrich is having such a crap year. Not sure if I'd put Thomas in a deal if I was Chicago. Philly should want Noah. Chicago would also need to move Hinrich but I think he's a BYC player & he costs too much for the Sixers which would make him hard to move.

[Cliff Levingston]

This deal helps the Bulls win 32 games instead of 29 this year, but also would help us win less in the following years.

Not that Miller is a bad player, but this is awful for the Bulls.

[broker3d]

We do not need another point guard unless Hinrich is being shipped out. Hinrich is playing out of position at the 2 guard spot. Sometimes he plays shooting guard at both ends of the court, sometimes just on D. Either way, he needs to be a point guard on both ends of the court.

To bring in Miller and keep Hinrich makes zero sense. It only makes things more complex, it does not solve anything.
