    Miller would struggle in a three point loving system. =\ But I agree.

    I would love to get Miller back. I wonder if Denver would be willing to give up Faried for the right price? I heard they were thinking about moving him, and they have Hickson. Would they be willing to move Faried with Miller for Robinson and a few other pieces?

    Faried does not like us, though. Dunno how hard the grudge is, however.

    Grudges go away when you're winning.

    Denver would need a first round pick and Faried wants to be paid in the summer. I wouldn’t give up either one for him to be a bench player here. Faried would be very unhappy as a backup.

    Andre Miller got benched last night, and so he yelled at Brian Shaw about it:

    I can see him being moved and there will be a number of teams interested in his services. If I am Denver i wait for the desperate playoff bound team who suffers an injury to their PG. Hold out for the best offer.

    I wonder if the Bulls would be interested. They are 7-13 since Derrick Rose went down and 12-18 overall, but only 1/2 game out of the 8th seed in the East and only 3.0 games out of having HCA. Adding Miller would improve their chances of making the playoffs, and there are rumblings Derrick Rose may be back in time for the playoffs. His latest injury (torn meniscus) wasn't nearly as bad has his previous one (torn ACL).
