    I love the idea of getting Mike Miller, but wish we could hold onto Boki.
    Boki seems like a really good person and a real team player.
    He goes hard to the hole and he tries on defense, even if it results in a lot of fouls.
    I think Boki appreciates the Nets giving him a real opportunity to play last year and this year and would give a "hometown" discount on resigning.
    More shooters never hurts.

    Throw in Diop instead of Boki, we have a good rotation of bigs already.

    we can still get boki who'll be unrestricted next year if the price is right though diop is also an option because i bet he won't stay in nj and the mavs will go after him again in the offseason

    We wouldn't be able to. Diop couldn't be combined in deal for 30 days. The deal would have to be Armstrong, Boki, Mags and a first for Mike Miller.

    I would say lets use the MLE to sign Boki in the offseason...

    Diop can only be traded by himself, if we were in fact going to trade him.

    Diop (or George) can be included if its worked out as a 3 way trade.

    3 Way for Harris + Miller

    That also may help (or hurt) the George situation.

    i like diop though...miller can do better whatever boki can do and more (rebounding) but we need diop as a "space-eater" to throw his weight around down low and take up some space for vc and rj to manuever inside like what twin used to do before albeit in slow motion...

    Actually... take out Magloire and send Stackhouse and George to Memphis along with the Dallas cash and some Jersey cash to buy them both out and it's done. Like this: 3 Way for Harris + Miller

    Maybe include Cardinal to Dallas for Hassell. Reduces some of Memphis commitment there.

    Wow. Without Miller, a spot opens up in Memphis's rotation. They might actually have to rely on George, as a starter or off the bench. Which means George would get minutes! That's a good idea!

    With Navarro, Gay, Crittenton, Jacobsen, and Warrick I think they are set at the 2 & 3. The thing that could get it done is George gets bought out and can sign with any team he wants. Lakers maybe?

    Ah, but Rudy Gay plays small forward, Crittenton is a point guard, Jacobsen doesn't play, and Hakim Warrick plays PF.

    So that reduces the SG spot to Navarro and Crittenton to split the minutes...and Gay to spend most of the time at SF....and about 30 mpg to replace, from giving Miller. Critt, Navarro, and George could split those minutes at the 2, and George could possibly get minutes at the 3, too...could work.

    The trade would be Boki, Mags, Darrell Armstrong and either ours/Dalla's 2008 first rounder for Mike Miller.
    It makes sense for both parties.

    Gay and Warrick at the 3 (Warrick should play there). At the 2, Crittenton is a combo guard, not a true point and Navarro with the occasional Jacobsen.

    The whole idea was to get George to want the trade so he could be bought-out and go wherever he wants. That's why we send cash. If it was about playing time George could come to NJ.

    I wish the Nets could have made a move on a guy like Mike Miller two years ago, when we were in desperate need of bench players.
