Umm....

Eddy Curry IS the low-post threat. And I can guarantee he'll average more than 30 MPG once he's in game shape. And forget about Mo Taylor so soon?

What makes you think MM is on the decline? He has some sorta bad back? Hmmm.....sounds familiar doesnt it... I'll give you a hint. His name is Quentin frikkin Richardson.

Stats dont tell the whole story b/c Miller has had to play with Posey, Battier, etc. along with him at the 3.


And as for rebounding..... Crawford has stepped it up. Marbury WILL/SHOULD be stepping it up. Lee and Ariza and Barnes are solid rebounders for their position. And our frontcourt rebounding will be fine.

Just for the record, Q has only averaged 1 more RPG in his career than MM.

DLee is the best thing to happen to NY in Isiah's 4 year tenure. And that alone, though a positive on the radar, is sad as hell.

yes, yes, Miller is better than Q. So why would Memphis give up Miller for Q, Rose's contract and a #1 pick we can't give them?

For us I don't think this would be a bad trade at all.

But, Bobby Jones is ALWAYS hurt. I mean ALWAYS!!! He has costed Sacremento title shots with his constant injuries. That alone is why I would not do this.

Mike Miller sat on the bench during long stretches of the playoffs while a guy like James Posey logged heavy minutes. Theres a reason for that, and it isn't because Posey is a great player; its because Posey defends and Miller doesn't.

I watched Mike Millers whole rookie season and was super impressed with him, but he should be better by now, he's pretty athletic, can jump and handles the rock well. He just hasn't ever put it all together.

Few in the league have a purer shot than him, he could be as good as Allan Houston, but he isn't and I dont think he is an overall better player or better fit for our team. He'd be great to have off the bench, but at 8 million per, til 08-09 I'd like more than a bench player.

Who in the sam hell is Bobby Jones and I would never do this trade for Miller, Jackson or that Jones character.

It's a lateral move at best.

Aren't most trades "lateral at best"?

It's a subtle move that fine tunes the roster.

That's all it would be expected to do, and that's all we really need.

I knew that I just like making people feel small. Is that wrong?

No. Trading Tim Thomas and Mike Sweetney for Eddy Curry is by no means a lateral move. That is highway robbery. I think we'd have to give up more for Mike Miller, maybe Q and Lee for Mike Miller. I think Miller would be worth it, I think it would be one of those lateral trades that helped get rid of some of our extra bodies and give us a glue guy who passes and shoots the lights out. But he isn't as good as Q in the post or on defense. I'd think about trading for Miller, but like I say, we'd need to give up more.

I would like Mike Miller more than Darius Miles though.

I doubt we'd have to give up THAT much more. Maybe a swap of Lee or Barnes or Ariza for 1 of Memphis' young talents.

But Like you just said... Q is a more versatile and talented player. But he's not as valuable to us b/c he doesn't give us anything we particularly need in the backcourt. Miller does.
