As the deal is reported, as of Tuesday, who is the Nets' backup shooting guard? Right now, you'd have a TOTAL of just three GUARDS on the team: Harris--who is hurt, Marcus--who sucks, and Carter. Wright, Armstrong, and Kidd are gone. RJ and Boki can't play SG. Of course, I'm not including Ager, who may have potential, but I can't imagine him being suddenly given significant PT. There is something else in the works--count on it. There will be a purpose behind the trade exception.
Unfortunately we get Hassell. Also, I've heard mixed reports where some include Armstrong and others include Wright. Not sure both will leave. I don't think Armstrong is going to go because Frank is going to need him to help aclimate Harris. Williams will be useless in that area.

It sounds like Chris Wallace is hosting an auction for Mike Miller this weekend. I know that the Nuggets are very actively trying to land him and they aren't alone.

Say what you will about Thorn, but he's got a real talent for staring down other GMs and making them agree to crappy mid-season deals. Everything else he does is pretty terrible (including scouting for the draft - I'm convinced that was all Stefanski), but if anyone can talk CDubs into a bad deal, it's him.

Of course, EVERYONE knows that EVERY team is going for Mike Miller, so it's gonna be tough as hell. Of course, we would have Mags, Boki, Diop, and 1st rounders to give away. Maybe Miller for Mags+Boki, and a separate deal of Lowry for Diop?
