    We should get him. Brewer for Miller straight up? Add some twinkies to get salaries to match.

    He's the PG version of Rudy Gay. Every team that drops him gets better despite the loss of his impressive stats.

    Remember he played for the clippers for a year, then moved to Utah? I think Gentry was the coach IIRC. He said "I ain't going to do shiat for the Clippers no more". :grin:

    Yes, the Clippers had a promising young core and then Miller joined, infected the locker room with his cancer, and provided the most disappointing season in their history. Then he bolted to Denver to ruin them (Clippers killed them in the first round a couple seasons later).

    Well, IIRC, he was sought after by the Clippers as a free agent that year off of the sixer, and took less money to play for the Clippers b/c he is from LA. He was mad at the team and coach in the end. Ugly free throw shooting form, but corrected it since.

    A young Lamar, Darius Miles, Candy man, and the Polish Pike was there too. Almost made the playoff the year before Miller joined. Alvin Gentry couldn't coach either. Who was on 570 then, remember him always complain about Gentry's coach? Was Larry Smith, the host? You know the guy that also did half time show for the Lakers on radio with Chick Hearns and Stu Lance calling the game.

    I'd trade for him solely to keep him away from GSW or the Clips

    He was traded from the Cavs for Miles. He never wanted to be in LA and made that clear from the first game (which the Clippers lost to those same Cavs). He has a bad attitude and the current behavior doesn't surprise me in the least. Do Not Want
