    if you add this, the price tag will not be the same. something has to give. he won't be in a full-time role anyways, almost like a "specialty team" member in a football team. Perfect fit if you need someone to space the floor for Harden, Howard or Lin in crunch time.

    They do if the price is right. Miller isn't going to stunt the development of anyone on the bench. He is a great fit on a Dwight Howard led team, and he has proven to step his game up in big moments.

    The first part means we made it. The Texans section is very similar. Should we go after _____ ?


    They would keep Mike Miller if he didn't cost so much in luxury taxes. He's the highest paid player outside of the big 1, medium 2.

    Just get him at cheap price, I bet other teams will require him as well, the question is that if we can get him at a low price.

    did you even watch this year's final games? he was lighting it up over there. I think he started a few games even.

    nobrainer if he agrees to sign the vet min, i doubt that he would though.

    Most likely none of those teams will bid on him. I guess it is possible but Miller could be lucky enough to make it through the waiver process with no one bidding on him and then he can sign wherever he wants basically. Not saying we will get him but the door is not shut yet.

    And another thing, how does Dallas still have 6.2 mil in cap space left? I live in Dallas and still have no idea where all of this cap space is coming from considering Marion is still on the team. Maybe they haven't officially signed Ellis and/or Calderon yet but it just annoys me that their name is tied to every free agent, good or bad, because it goes against everything I know about the salary cap.

    If healthy pick him up. An extra rebounder too for when we go small.

    He needs to be relied upon though for the season. A Bev, Asik, Miller, Jones bench is DEEP.

    My guess is that Dallas will put a bid in for him. I would like him on our bench, but at least he isn't going to a contender like OKC (I hope).

    definitely yes. 1 mil for a 3 pt shooter sounds good to me.
