Yeah defitnely someone we should be intrested in. Rasho and Juan work and its enitcing for them since Dixon's contract expires and Rasho does next year. Of course Memphis would want some actual talent in return, our 1st rd pick of course and mabye Graham or Moon?

I've never been a big Mike Miller fan.

That is all.

He'd fit in here! Someone who is really talented on offense but can't play d.

His rebounding is decent at least.

perfect SF? all he does is chuck 3's and last time I checked, we need a slashing SF who is able to create their own shot.

Me neither, but he's playing incredibly well this season. He would be a good fit on our team.

Miller would be a good fit here. He's not that defensive 3 or bruising 5, but he's a damn fine player.

He plays solid if unspectacular D and shoots very well along with being an underrated slasher. His rebounding is pretty solid too.

The thing is, if Memphis is really looking to cut costs, why don't they just trade him to Miami for J.Will & Dorell Wright or something. The only way I see that not working is that Riley doesn't want to ruin his draft pick.

No surprise we wouldn't be interested, seems like a BC type of player, but I don't think we have what it takes to get him.

He doesn't really bring anything to the table that we need. I'd go for him if he's cheap, but I wouldn't give up any assets to land him.

I just hope the Magic don't land him though.

uH....he doesn't just chuck 3s and can create his own shot. In fact, he can create shots for other people too.

I think Mike Miller id a good player, however, I dont think this is what we need at all, we have shooters, we need a Maggette, Artest , Slashers that can be solid defenders.

Id Prefer Artest, Maggete and Kirilenko over Miller, hes a good player, just not the type of player we need. Its important that with Bargs as our C, we need a defensive SF, who can put up 15 ppg.

I like him too.. it would be like having a more athletic Kapono at Sf who can rebound!.. we woudl miss Moons defence, but based on matchups it coudl work.

Of course the Raptors organization likes him, all he does is shoot 3 pointers and doesn't play much defense. No thanks, our 3 point shooting isn't the problem last time I checked, we're number one in the league in that category.
