    There is a good chance if we don't trade him we will buy him out, but we may opt to keep him till we trade him. I hope the end of training camp is as far as we go though. I don't want someone here who doesn't want to be here.

    Back in the day, Dennis Rodman could've worn one and we'd have jumped at the chance to sign him

    I wouldn't. I would have been PISSED. Best rebounder to ever play the game, but I've hated him since his rookie year.

    Miller, Kaman, Henderson and (maybe) Frazier are the only players I'd like to see go elsewhere. Kinda hoping a contending team is interested in filling out their bench with the first 3.

    Naw naw naw..Wook my man..Rodman was brilliant in inventing his persona. That and his hustle made him a lot of bucks. It was only after he started believing his shtick and delved into his toxic lifestyle that I lost every ounce of respect for the guy.

    I hated him early because he was a Piston. Back then, my Piston hatred (probably inherited from my father) was almost as strong as my L*ker hatred is now.

    I knew he was a knucklehead right out of college, but I had no idea the depths of knuckleheadism to which he'd sink...

    Pressey grew up in a millionaire family, his NBA dad. Frazier tries harder.

    I feel sorry for Frazier, so that settles it. We keep Frazier over Pressey.

    Yeah..that was a miss queue. I started to share something with you, but had to log off for a few. I had no idea that this system would save it until it posted. Fear not..I am bound to pester you soon, hehe.

    Miller of 2+ years ago could be our best SF, but look at his numbers from last year.

    I just want to say that 51 posts in a thread about Mike Miller... in early September... says something about us. I'm not sure it's good.

    I like Miller, he's a good all-around talent with high basketball IQ, can pass or shoot very well for his position, unselfish, a team player, experienced. I think his defense could be his weakness but he could still be useful even though he's getting older because his game was never based on athleticism. I hope we give him a decent chance and wouldn't be surprised if he turns out to be a useful player for us.

    He'll be useful as a vet mentor and shooting instructor. I don't expect to see him as part of a 9 or 10 man rotation.

    Of our Twin White Ivory Towers at SF, Miller will help Connie grow up and learn to crack a smile. They each have the same time remaining in their NBA careers.
