can we include devean george's expiring for lowry and warrick? that's $2.5M more off the books for memphis next year...
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.

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 (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.

Like this: 3 Way for Harris + Miller Maybe include Cardinal to Dallas for Hassell. Reduces some of Memphis commitment there.

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!

The thing that could get it done is George gets bought out and can sign with any team he wants. Lakers maybe?

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.

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.
