Mike Miller off the market? 

Post#1 » by Shill » Fri Jul 9, 2010 4:52 am

Hours after LeBron James announced he was leaving Cleveland to play with the Miami Heat, Mitchell native Mike Miller also signed with Miami his father, Tom Miller, said.

Mike Miller signed a five-year contract worth around $30 million with the Heat, who also acquired Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosch.

For a complete story, see Friday's edition of The Daily Republic.

Are those clowns all really taking less money? Would have to be right?

Good get for them (bad for everyone else).

Hopefully they'll get Shaq though.

This shouldn't be a surprise. Heat was said to have extended an offer to him earlier. Miller went to Florida, really wants to play for Lebron James, and there you have it. He's taking less than he could have gotten from some other teams, but I'm sure he thinks it's worth it.

If the Heat go small sometimes, and Bosh plays center (against smaller lineups):
Chalmers/ Wade/ Miller/ Lebron/ Bosh

Pretty unstoppable offensively.

In a way this almost seems like cheating. I know it's not, but it just doesn't feel right.

So basically their starting lineup will be:

PG Wade
SG Miller
SF James
PF Bosh
C Shaq

How the **** can you compete against that?

They're actually going to trot out a lineup of

PG: Lebron
SG: Wade
SF: Miller
PF: Bosh
C: Min Salary guy

that would be sick

Not exactly the best newspaper (DWAYNE Wade and Chris BOSCH), so I'd eye it with a bit of skepticism, especially since the big 3 haven't agreed to specific contracts.

This just pisses me off so much. Words cannot express how much I want to explode right now. We are going to be left with absolutely no one to fill the SG role that's relevant.
