    He's been averaging 16 points and 8 assists per game as a Sixer, What do you guys think?

    He's a great pg, obviously. He make everyone around him better, but thats the last thing we need, a player that will help us get a better record then what fans want. I want to have the worst record. It is enjoyable seeing a win once in a while, but in the long run I think a top 4 pick would really help out.

    I think he is a keeper. To go with the rookie your team drafts, hopefully Oden, and Andre Iguodala, your team will have a sick core.

    <span style="font-size:12pt;line-height:100%"><span style="font-family:Arial">The Sixers are looking to rebuild. Obviously. There are very few PG's in the league right now that are on his level. You ask me, he's the perfect point guard for the Sixers right now. Espicially when the Sixers have alot of players still developing. Miller is only going to speed up that process.The Sixers are one of the worst teams in the league, thats a given. They can still win once in a while and still be in the Oden sweepstakes, no worries.</span></span>

    I agree with KWebb. I must admit, however, that I haven't seen many 76ers games since the Iverson trade became official (been out of town... no NBALP). Miller is still considered a top-10 point guard in the league, and the best part about his game is that he doesn't necessarily look to put points on the board himself, but rather he is a pass-first point guard.Iguodala will benefit a lot from Miller's passing, as will Korver since he can't do anything when asked to create his own shot. Miller will speed up Iguodala and Carney's development, and possibly even Dalembert's offensive development (although that seems doubtful).Another positive about his addition to the team is that if things don't work out, or if another team is interested in him, we could trade him and still receive decent value. If we end up keeping him... well, I already discussed that part, and I believe his contract expires about the same time as Webber's contract does.

He is 30 he won't be good when were ready to be good anyway.He is a good PG, but I still think the trade is awful. Miller is 30 old he won't help us later when we can actually be good. And the 2 picks are in the 20's we will get bench guys with those picks that's it.I say we trade Miller for a expiring, and a first rounder.

    No chance in hell we get a first round pick for Andre Miller. Plus, his contract expires after next season, so the way the coaching staff sees it is that he'll help speed up the development of Iguodala, Dalembert, Carney, etc., and be off the cap after next season. However King and Brown have stated that they may look to move him over the summer, and won't hesitate to pull the trigger if the right deal is on the table, but I don't see him leaving Philadelphia until his contract expires.

I know Cavs want him not sure if they have there first or not. But they give it up not sure what we would take back though BK would want a expiring not long contract. And I don't think the Cavs got a expiring.But Yeah any team who needs a starting PG that is still one of the top PG would give us a first, and expiring. I am not saying like Memphis cause there pick be to good. But out side of top 5 pick anyone would do it I am sure.

    I doubt that. You rarely ever see a team give up a first round pick in a deal that brings them anything less than a superstar player in return. Sure Miller has trade value because he is a traditional point guard who can get the ball to the players where they want it, but his shot is decent at best, and same goes for his defense. I really don't see us getting anything more than a similar player with a shorter contract in return for him, but since his deal expires after next season we are better off keeping him this season. Then next season we might be able to get more in return for him since there may be teams looking for an expiring contract, and if we can find the right deal we should take it. If not, just let his contract come off the books.

I am telling you teams who need a PG they will deff give up a first this is one of the best in the leage.

    This guy is a pretty solid guard who can both shoot and dish the rock. Many expected his numbers in Philly to drop since there wasn't as much talent as he had in Denver. Ever since he came to Philly though he has put up solid numbers.

    He almost costed us a game agaist Cleveland the other night. He had 2 turnovers in two straight posessions late in the 4th I think. He is inconsistant in clutch. He'll make a shot to seal the game one night, and turn the ball over and miss freethrows the other.
