    Just saw this posted. it seems like speculation because both were benched last night. but it does makes lots of sense even though Brad Miller has been terrible. It says Blake and Outlaw ould do the trick. Even Kpee knows you cant start howard at Center all season. 1. he sucks. 2. he would never stay healthy.

    miller/bayless
    roy/rudy
    salmons/webster
    la/howard
    miller/la/pendy

    and next year


    miller/bayless
    roy/rudy
    batum/salmons/webster (who likely gets traded)
    la/miller
    greg/joel

    looks good to me.

    Miller and Salmons make 18.6 million together. Blake and Outlaw make 7.6. I know you like to bag on KP, but he's not allowed to just make up CBA rules because you want a trade.

    Last year those guys were vital in Chicago's valiant playoff run, they almost beat the Celtics.

    Brad Miller is brutal in his old age.

    Miller is averaging less than a point over his past four games.

    The way Miller has declined he's not an upgrade over Howard.

    Way to scrape the bottom of the barrel, KP.

    Howard is making $1.3 mil this year.

    Miller is making $12.3 mil.

    Mixum, can you answer RR7's question? How the fuck would you propose we land him?

    he doesn't know how to do math, that would require a higher level of functioning than he has been able to demonstrate in his tenure here.

    the Howard vs Miller argument was stupid.. thats like being upset that Caleb Canales is as unproductive as Brad Miller.

    Of course it's not. Howard gives you 9.6 PER for the Vet minimum. Miller gives 10.6 PER for $11m

    Only Mixum the brave, Mixum the smart, Mixum the feline would think it makes sense to pay an extra $10m for someone that is almost as bad as Juwan (both give you pathetic production, one just is paid like he gives you that).

    Man, KayPee might not be winning the executive of the year this year, but he is so much better than you, it's not even close. Sorry, but that's the truth!

    How would you like to obtain the two? Don't just drop that bullshit, figure something out. You have to match salaries. 18 million is a lot to match in salaries. Blake, outlaw and Webster is about 12. Still not there. WTF do you want done? See, this is what is wrong with your BS whining all the time, make a trade, make a trade, make a trade. That's all fine and good, but you see this as an instance where KP will fail, by not landing Miller and Salmons, and there isn't a good way to actually get it done.

    And for the record, I would prefer Miller to Howard. But explain how we do it, please.

    As do I. He'd give us some much needed size, but he isn't worth more than Blake and one among Outlaw/Webs.
