    i'm all for this. we have a lot of young, good perimeter players

    brooks, lowry
    martin, taylor
    ariza, battier, budinger

    and now solid upfront as well.

    yao, miller, hayes
    scola, hill, jeffries

    +1 draft pick.

    i think that's a great rotation there, and with NY 1st rounds in 2011, 2012.

    we are looking good next year and the future.

    He's slower than a slug now but still knows how to play. It'd be a good pickup for cheap.

    it would be a nice pick up at center

    in other hand much of you see david andersen go i think he would stay we have 15 spot roster not 12 and he's did a decent job this season

    awesome, we haven't made it to the weekend after the last game and Miller's season isn't even up and already having rumors about the offseason

    Morey, do your thing (within the limits of the NBA of course since you can't talk to FAs till July 1st) :grin:

    There is a good chance for Brad Miller to be a rockets player because of the connection. I do not know if the LLE would be good enough for him, so we can save a full MLE. If we add Miller to the team, Morey will have more assets to make the trade to get a star player by including other big men.

    BM as a backup center would be a nice pickup.

    Especially since BMiller will probably average 28 mpg for month 1, 24mpg for month 2, and 20mpg until the playoffs. A heavily-relied-on backup.

    Miller on the cheap is a no brainer.

    Good acquisition if we can make it happen. Gives us a legitimate offensive threat from the center position when Yao is not on the floor. I would love it if we could somehow get Camby as well.....imagine having Scola, Camby, Miller, Yao, and Hill as our bigs. :eek:

    Awesome, another old player retiring as a Rocket. Les would like to donate LLE to him.

    I just hope he wont get Brent Barry contract and Morey wont be on his doorstep on June 30.

    at his age is miller capable of playing the extra minutes he's gonna have since yao is limited? serious question, i haven't followed much of brad miller.

    I'm sorry, but we shouldn't spend any money on anyone until we get a player who who can discourage some layups every once in a while.

    I would rather the Rockets to just develop Hill for those minutes like they did this season. Brad Miller was good years ago when he was with the Kings but he is past his prime, too slow, no defense, and not a athlete.

    You must have skipped the game where he smoked us here for 25.

    So we solve the back up C position we've craved since losing Mutombo but what about our new problem that no one has yet to talk about...

    a quality big? Whether it's a PF or C? That means maybe no more Yao.
