He got it from the postcard thing at the top.

Why not he can come off the bench, he's better suited for that anyway and the why get another big man when this team is all ready over loaded with them, Stro, Swat, Boone, Curly, Diop that's 5 guys that u can inter change between the 4 and 5 and who else in Thorn going to bring in ? please do not say J.O.

I just can't see Miller, whos averaging 16 points, 6 boards and 3 assist while shooting 43 percent from 3 point range, coming off the bench at this stage of his career. He's already playing 37 minutes in Memphis. If he comes off the bench he won't get that much playing time and he won't like that. Plus, he deserves to play atleast 32 minutes a game.

Slimm, Getting JO has nothing to do with winning now. VC for JO is straight up business. JO has less years on a terriblc contract.
In actuality, Slimm, now without Kidd, would you rather 2nd round lose or a lottery pick. Think about it.
I dont mind playing the young guys for the rest of the season losing all the games so we can get higher pick.
Harris
Lottery Pick SG
RJ
Nenad
JO(healthy 1 yr) Boone
Miller
MWILL
SWILL
Diop
Boki (Maybe)
Dallas 1st Round Pick
Dallas 2nd Round Pick
I dont mind that at all for next year. Hopefully Frank is considered for the Indiana Job.

^I think that's the plan, go on a 1-year semi-rebuilding process then come back the year after, after all the guys have developed chemistry and such.
I don't want JO on this team, I just don't see it as a step forward. I'd prefer to see VC get traded ASAP, pick an SG in the draft, maybe play average-below average ball next year then come back stronger the year after.
This is my ideal line-up:
Harris
Draft pick SG
RJ
Krstic
Boone
SWill
MWill
Diop
Boki
whoever in the next 2 drafts.
