    We hear alot about how perfect Boozer and Rasheed are but Brad Miller could be the best complimentary player to Yao out there. The guy does alot of the dirty work, consistant mid ranged outside shot, plays tough d, and best of all, he is a solid passer!

    The 2 of them would make an amazing C/PF combo. Thoughts?

    that would definitely not be the worst if it's possible.

    if we can't get someone good. we should try to get a couple of veterans who are good playmakers and can hit the outside jumper. like toni kukoc wouldn't be bad...

    watched a couple of games on tv today. a mehmet okur would be fine, he has great touch, not really a great rebounder though. you know... it's a horrible idea but watching the knicks game... it seems like vin baker has a decent midrange jumper... no no no... take that thought out of my mind. but yeah rasheed wallace might be exactly what we need. shooter, blocks shots, rebounds. wow... he and ben wallace are suffocating inside.

    Brad Miller? He is nothing.
    I say it again, he is just lucky to have a bunch of teammates who know how to pass.

    Kukoc's defense and rebounding is horrible. He plays more like a SF.

    Brad Miller just has teammates who know to pass?

    The guy, at some point, was averaging more assists and less TO than our PG. He's at around 5 assists and 2 TO's.

    We know he can score (since his Bulls/Pacers days), and we know he can rebound.

    The guy is for real. But Sacramento wouldn't give him up, he's Divac's replacement next year.

    Wrong! I seen enough of Kings' games to know Brad isn't just playing well because he's under the Sac's system. The guy is a legit shooter and a hustle on the board. He does the dirty work that wins game!

    You know what...I think Yao will probably get tire too easily if he playing in the Kings system. Running up and down is going to be too much for Yao i think....so he will end up being useless out there and coach might have to take him out. He fits on the half-court Gundy system better. On the other hands, Brad is running much faster and is a hustler on the court...he fits perfect on that team.

    Other than an All Star or charity game, the only way Yao Ming and Brad Miller will be wearing the same uniforms is if Houston trades Yao to SAC. 'Cause other than Yao (and excluding JJ), we sure don't have any commodities they want...players who can run a break and make excellent passing decisions within a motion offense. We've come a long way in 65 games, but I doubt we could get to the Kings' level even if we could kidnap Pete Carril from their bench.

    I have a tendency to instantly doubt white big men given their track record in the history of the NBA. With that said, it took a while, but Brad Miller has converted even me into a believer. The guy is for real and he's got the heart and intensity to match his offemsive and defensive skills. Do I see him coming to the Rockets any time soon? No.

    Brad Miller has a multi-year contract with the Kings (5 years), who do you like to offer?
