Woj: Mike Miller Clears Wavers; Spurs Possible Suitors

[ginobilized]

My initial reaction is no.

After thinking about it though, I think f*#@ no!

[monkeypunk]

The Spurs have Belinelli, Neal and Mills for that already.

Neal is still unsigned, afaik.

[Kindergarten Cop]

I know I'm in the minority and will surely get chastised, but at this point I'd rather have Bonner. I think most forget how horribly Miller was playing in the Playoffs before the closing games of the Finals.

FWIW, I'm hoping Bonner is packaged in a trade for a quality backup 3 sometime between now and the deadline, but I'd rather roll with the Red Rocket than bring in an injured one-dimensional player. With the whole AK47 discussions, I had my fingers crossed that he would either come to SA - or at least somewhere other than one of our main compe ors. I have no worries at all about him joining OKC, Golden State, Houston, etc.

I don't want that bum on the spurs...I don't think he's nearly the player, at this pt, w/o LeBron or Wade creating wide open looks for him. He cant create his own shot. I thought the Spurs had enough spot up, 3 pt shooters?

Very one dimensional, though not on Steve Novak's level. Imagine Novak though playing in Miami with his old Marquette teammate...

Shooters with some playmaking ability are much more valuable to us than one-dimensional shooters, given how stagnant the offense becomes when Parker's on the bench and bad Manu shows up. To be honest, I'd rather have Neal than Miller at this point in Miller's career and even Bonner at the same age than Miller is less beat up ... plus has a salary that helps in trades if needed (and has a higher aggregate +/- than Melo over the past several seasons, which is why I find it laughable when Knicks fans fawn over him thinking he's getting them anywhere past the second round).

[Chinook]

Neal is still unsigned, afaik.

Sure, but they're not trading him out for Miller.

[024]

So it's likely he's going to sign with a Western contender. We might see more of Miller shutting down Tiago in the low post.

[milkyway21]

Spurs again?

Possible?

it surprises me to see the Spurs named in that Miller & in some FA

..when they actually inked 2 - Belinelli & Pendergraph under the radar...

NO to Miller

[monkeypunk]

Sure, but they're not trading him out for Miller.

True but I'm not sure Neal is a lock to come back. At least with the roster as it currently stands.

[Juggity]

Why would anyone want this greasy, broken, trailer trash dude?

[HI-FI]

do not want. sure he nailed some daggers against us but he'll be one of those guys who collects a check, probably breaks down in the playoffs for whatever team thinks he can reduplicate what came before.

[crc21209]

Mike Miller. Everytime I thought he was done he would drill another 3 on us with 1 shoe on. What a damn faker. Limping down the court with his bad back, only to spot up and perfectly hit a 3 pointer. And of course he would go to OKC...

[Snaq O'Meal]

So it's likely he's going to sign with a Western contender. We might see more of Miller shutting down Tiago in the low post.

Not too worried about Miller in the WC, since any TOSB can shut down the Spurs' $9 million/year centre. Even 6' 0" Derek Fisher.

[HemisfairArena]

do not want. sure he nailed some daggers against us but he'll be one of those guys who collects a check, probably breaks down in the playoffs for whatever team thinks he can reduplicate what came before.

But yet we did that exact thing re-signing Manu. He hit a few daggers but ended up being one of those guys who collected a paycheck and broke down in the playoffs becoming a huge liability.

But Manu speaks Spanish, and that is very valuable in today's workforce.

[TheGreatYacht]

I'd be disappointed to see the Spurs bring him in. In his prime, he was a great player, but now he's about as done as McGrady. They have enough limited shooters as it is. They shouldn't pick up another veteran free agent. Just re-sign Neal or give a three-year deal to a rookie.

McGrady cannot hit an open shot to save his life now in days. At least Mike Miller can still make shots.

[Dverde]

I can see him going back to Memphis.

[monkeypunk]

Crooklyn has a roster spot...

[Spur-Addict]

Redundant, no thank you.

[DapDaGenius]

I want Kawhi to dunk on his punk ass again.

[Big P]

OkC or Memphis.

[phxspurfan]

Good for OKC. What they gain in Miller offsets what they basically lost in Martin. Except Miller isn't a choker shooting the ball and won't be expected to replace Harden.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

LOL. Spurs fans being bitter, who worshiped the likes of Jax, Jaren Jackson, Kerr, Horry, etc., towards a guy who proved he could be clutch when the chips were down in the Finals.

Spurs would be damn lucky to get him and park his ass at the end of the bench for when we need him in the playoffs. But y'all go ahead and keep rubbing it out for the likes of Bonner and the anti-clutch work of Neal and DGreen late in the Finals...

[Mikeanaro]

him, we don´t need some old crippled pos, the Cheat dumped him like a , I wanna see how he does big shots and flops on other teams officials don´t care about

He's an amnesty waiver cleared player, so his likely salary would be vet minimum. That's what is usable in trades. His old salary is not on anyone's cap, and payable by Miami.

no more white guys plz
