    I like it. Low risk, high reward, since its a non-guaranteed contract.

    Well you can never be sure. If he sucks or starts being a retard, we can throw him aside no questions asked since his contract is non-guaranteed.

    I hope he is healthy, but I still question is ability to play within a team concept.

    If he costs next to nothing, he can come of the bench and provide energy at the very least though.

    I can't wait to see how this plays out

    A bone on bone knee for a player that uses a ton of against the rules supplements to keep off the weight.

    We'll see. He had potential coming out of high school that was off the wall. Maybe now that he's had time to think and reflect, he'll come back a different person towards his coaches, teammates, etc.

    On the other hand, he could just come out looking like a guy who hasn't played in two years, which he hasn't. And he could be the same old coach killer he was before his injury. Only time will tell though.

    good thing is, when you join the defending NBA champs, players tend to behave a tad bit better and the team most definitely will not put up with any new guys BS.

    I knew this was going to happen as soon as Finley signed with the Spurs.

    Low risk, high reward says it best. Miles could be a dynamite 6th man for them if he's healthy. If he's not, well, it's a non-guaranteed contract so you can just let him walk.
