I think it's a long shot that Miles will end up in NJ and his character issues are exactly what we don't need. Source
I remember when he and Quentin Richardson were supposed to be the next big things. That worked out real well. We really don't need him around.
terrible player because he takes a lot of wild shots, misses a ton of free throws and hes a cancer for the young players. y would we even work him out? hes a fallen angle that I don't really feel bad thats fallen
Rod Thorn is someone that I could see signing Miles and playing him 10 games just to spite the Blazers Otherwise, he is useless

I liked Darius when he first came into the league while he was with LAC. He showed some promise and I believe won the MVP of the Rookie-Sophmore game.

Then instead they can try to make a trade at the deadline using Raefs expiring contract.
He should retake the SAT and go to college. He's got the cash to pay for it. He should do it now before he blows the money on something stupid.

sounds like the Mavs have some interest as well http://sportstwo.com/forums/Darius-Miles-W...ve-t119811.html
