    The Grizzlies would probably be a really good fit for him. I do hope the Rockets nab him though. I wanted him on the team so bad during the Yao/McGrady era.

    Apparently he still owns a nice home there and his family loves the area. So they're going to be tough to beat. The only thing against it is that I don't buy Memphis as a true contender... but they're probably close enough that he'd go along with it.

    Hope we can get him. He would immediately move ahead of Casspi and Williams. Him and Garcia can split time at the 2, 3, and occasionally 4.

    All miller needs to be able to do is walk and shoot threes. I hope he considers us.

    I'm not sure if Aldridge has ever been the first to report anything. Unfollowed him on Twitter for that reason. Seems to just "confirm" rumors or deals a few minutes after someone has already reported it.

    This. Thinking about unfollowing David and follow LaMarcus instead.

    Not surprising. Makes complete sense.....they don't really have an ace 3 point shooter outside of Durant.

    Well, we have a chance. We have a good team located in a big city and other teams are in small towns, with the state tax. It is not very difficult to figure it out. Mr. Miller.:rolleyes:

    Rockets only offering minimum wage. So the state tax saving is around $10.

    But we haven't sent our contingent consisting of Mario Elie, Matt Bullard, Walt Williams, and Dan Langhi to meet with Miller yet.
