Will Miles play tonight? (Merged)

He's got a good game going, like Bayless last night.

Looks like he'll be replacing Gay as a starter soon.

 

10 pts, 5 rebs and counting...

 

He might have a shot at the 6th man award.

 

A little soon to say that anyone going to replace Gay...

Ross will replace Gay before Miles since Ross is a much better defender then Miles.

 

Quinton Ross? That's rich.

 

Ross is a great defender and has started in the past when we had injuries. His defense puts him over Miles.

 

are you serious?

i am fucking stunned if you are.

 

Be stunned.

 

what are you stunned about?

The fact that he is taking Maris seriously? Or the fact that he says Ross is a better defender than Miles?

 

When did I say I took Miles seriously. I even said that we signed him to piss y'all off, and yes Ross is a better defender then Miles.

 

What the hell are you talking about? i said MARIS, not Miles.

And I know your opinion on Ross being a better defender than Miles, You don't know my opinion on that matter. I was asking drexlersdad why he was stunned?

If he was stunned by you saying Ross is a better defender than Miles, then I am shocked because Ross is a better defender than Miles

 

I misread, no biggie. Who's Maris anyway?

 

the guy's quote you replied to that started this talk of anyone replacing rudy gay

 

At the end of the day, at the very least, the Blazers aren't getting super cheated. Miles can clearly still play, and quite well at that. He's not some hobbled up figure just struggling his way on the court for a minute a game.

 

i guess i misread, i thought you said ross and miles might take over for gay.

 

at the end of the day, memphis is a joke of a team, and will be until they get sold.

 

They could go places in the future with Mayo and Gay. Mayo is an extremely talented player that will only get better. I think Mayo will probably bolt when he can, but if he doesn't I see them becoming relevant with him as their star

 

Very true. I mean, who wants to live/play in Memphis, TN anyway?

 

lol, unfortunately people in cities such as Chicago, LA and NY say the same thing about us

 

The interesting thing is that no major free agents seem to have much interest in Chicago.

Kobe Bryant was the only one recently who did. Like Tim Duncan, T-mac, Grant Hill etc. all listened to our offers, went to lunch, etc. but none of them signed with us. Kobe didn't force a sign and trade either, and apparently vetoed a trade as well. Ben Wallace was our only major one, and we simply offered him the most money, and our team seemed to be on an upward trajectory.

Obviously haven't New York rolling in awhile in free agency.
