Are Timberwolves Making Mike Miller Available?

[MapleLeaf]

From realgm.com

K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune believes that the Minnesota Timberwolves could be making forward Mike Miller available.

Johnson believes that Minnesota would trade Miller for the right price, which could make their roster even younger.

lol poor mike miller, seems like he is always on a terrible team and is in the trade winds and is never traded, but when he is, he gets traded to another bad team lol. I could think of a lot of good teams who could use his deadly shooting whether starting or off the bench.

LAMAR ODOM
he's a huge expiring, and the Lakers could use Miller's absurd shooting and ok defense

 

[MapleLeaf]

Or maybe the Lakers could pull a Gasol and trade Mihm, Josh Powell and a 2nd rounder and get him lmao

The Lakers would need to pick up another big man somehow then. Mihm and Powell aren't capable back ups and all you would have is Bynum and Gasol.

I too wish he would get put on a good team.
He would bring deadly shooting and above average D.

Although I wouldn't trade Odom for him, maybe a Vlad and Mhim plus pick for him?

I'd rather give up Radman and another player than giving up Odom.

yeah thats the only problem although Powell is an excellent rebounder.
I think Powell is fine, but then we would have to go small ball with the second unit and play Vlad at the 4 with bynum or Pau at C.
Phil always has 1 starter, usually pau or bynum, with the second unit

i think it could work

 

[Pugz]

Try and ship Vald for Mike, not Lamar.

 

[Mexi]

'sota wont bite on that though
who would trade miller for vlad?

 

[Pugz]

Duh, you would add more.
A pick and Mhim.
Shorter contracts that they would like.

 

[Mexi]

LO or nothing
but who knows, maybe since McFail isnt calling the shots anymore, they wont try to screw us

 

[Mexi]

Mike Miller and Jason Collins for Odom is perfect

 

[A.E]

Dream on Laker fans. The "right price" the article talks about is certainly nothing close to that of Lamar Odom or Radmonovich.

I don't buy the T-Wolves are shopping him anyways.

 

[Mexi]

what do you mean AE?
It's not like Miller is a top tier player.

in the Miller/Collins for Odom trade, they get another low post scorer to team up with Jefferson.
And if things dont work out, thats 14M off the books which allows them to play around in Free Agency
they also dump Collins horrible contract

it's obvious why the Lakers would do that trade

 

[RipCity32]

Lakers get: Mike Miller
T-Wolves get: Sun Yue, DJ Mbenga, 2019 2nd Rounder

I think that will happen.

 

[dez]

I wouldnt mind if we went after him.

Not sure if there are any possible senarios I could come up with though.

 

[Pugz]

Rip, that deal is too good to pass up.

 

[RipCity32]

Rip, that deal is too good to pass up.

I know. It makes the Gasol deal look like a rip-off....Oh wait.

 

[Mexi]

Gasol deal was lop sided, but it wasnt a complete rip off
they got 9M off the books, and Marc is looking good
