Brandon Rush or some other scorer that is in the 6'7 range that can play D. I'm tired of watching head replace Tmac and getting murder without being able to score at all.

TRADE HEAD AND NUMBER 1 TO MOVE UP OR GET MILLER FROM MEMPHIS

I would go with Lopez or Courtney Lee from Western Kentucky.

"...wait a minute. I'm sorry. There has been a trade. The Houston Rockets have traded their 25th pick, Bobby Jackson, and Chuck Hayes to the Memphis Grizzlies for Mike Miller. Memphis Grizzlies are now on the clock"

Edit, Mike Miller, Kyle Lowry, and Memphis' second round draft pick.

Thabeet is not coming out this year... I would love to get Chase Budinger but I doubt he would fall to us ( he might go back to school too)

I wouldn't mind Robin Lopez or even Mario Chalmers, but I'd really like CDR or Brandon Rush.

I like your style jopatmc. If you're gonna dream, dream big. Because, BJax and Hayes aren't probably enough to get Miller by himself, lets milk them for all their worth just because they're the Grizzlies :D :D :D

At the same time though he has a TON to learn about playing winning basketball. He also seems a bit cocky and displays all the typical symptoms: poor shot selection, too trigger happy, turnover prone, bad defense, etc.

On a 1-10 scale of NBA readiness i'd rate him about a six.
