why? whos name that i mentioned being questionable averages that?
how many 20/20 or 30/20 games has Miller had in his career?

How many total games has Camby played in his career over his nine year span?
I'm not saying Camby isn't more talented, but the dude is CONSTANTLY INJURED.
you said people could argue Miller is better than Camby but i think there is no way anyone could. Ive seen Miller play and he cant defend a fly or grab a board from a 10 year old.
Camby is much better than Miller, no possible argument against it
No one is arguing that. Camby has to be on the court though, that seems to be his only weakness.
Back to the topic at hand:
Found this on the board I was kicked off and he makes some good points............

It actually makes a lot of sense. This is what I posted in the topic on the personnel board:

Some things to consider about the trade
- Garnett has a no-trade clause in his contract, meaning he can say no to any trade. Garnett wants to be on a winning team, and after this trade, the Kings have plenty of pieces left to become a contender (Artest, Bibby, SAR, Kevin Martin). Most trades with KG and other teams involve giving up most of the team for KG, like Chicago. He wants to be on a winning team, not a team where he is the only option left after the trade. This trade might not be the BEST deal, but it might be the best that is possible.
- McHale is looking BAD as the General Manager, and wants to win ASAP so he isn't fired. Why trade KG for parts that might be better in 2-4 years when there could be a different GM? He will want to go for a trade that will make the Wolves better NOW so that he can redeem himself.
- If they alter the trade (and they will have to for the salaries to work), the TWolves can get rid of their bad contracts (Blount, Hudson, Jaric) for expiring contracts from the Kings (Corliss, Vitaly, and Hart).
- This news is coming from Jonathan Givony, who is the president and founder of DraftExpress. The guy rarely makes trade rumors, as he is a draft expert. Why would he make a trade rumor if drafting is his specialty, and why would he risk his credibility as the president of DraftExpress?
If you look into this, it actually can make A LOT of sense for both teams. Kings become a contender, and the TWolves have a chance for a brighter future by unloading contracts and receiving three legitimate starters.
Just FYI ...This news is coming from Jonathan Givony, who is the president and founder of DraftExpress. The guy rarely makes trade rumors, as he is a draft expert. Why would he make a trade rumor if drafting is his specialty, and why would he risk his credibility as the president of DraftExpress?
He got fired from another draft site for completely fabricating stuff about an agent. The agent threatened to sue the site (DraftCity, which was a huge draft site at the time associated with RealGM) and Jonathan was let go.

I'm not saying this KG rumor is true or not. I actually like Jonathan's work but he does have some credibility issues.

Shaq
Yao
Ben Wallace
Chris Kaman
Dwight Howard
Zydrunas Illgauskas
Tyson Chandler
Emeka Okafor
Alonzo Mourning
Marcus Camby
Nenê Hilario
Jeff Foster
There's probably more
This makes no sense. If the Wolves are ever going to trade Garnett you can bet it'll involve some young talents, so they can build for the future. What's the point of trading Garnett for a bunch of decent vets? They won't be any better in the short term or the long term.
Also if you're going to sign and trade Wells, he would have to actually want to go to Minnesota and I really doubt he wants to play there, especially WITHOUT Garnett.

Not Nene nor Foster.....
I'd still take Camby and I don't think it's at all laughable, 50 games with those numbers would be dynomite!The others you've pointed out, nope. Its not even close. Almost laughable.Check the stats.
Miller's stat line for the season.
15.0 pts, 7.8 rbs, 4.7 ast, .7 blk
Camby's stat line
12.8 pts, 11.9 rbs, 2.1 ast, 2.4 blk
My top five centers in order are:
Shaq
Wallace
Yao
Miller
Camby
The 5 centers I'd take would be Shaq, Camby, Howard, Stoudamire(he does play center for Phoenix), Yao, Wallace, Okafor, Okur when Boozer is healthy plays center, whoops that's more than 5 sorry.
Duncan, Yao, Diaw, Shaquille O'Neal, Camby, Ben Wallace, Kaman, Howard, Mourning, Curry, Dampier, Chandler, Boozer...
I'd rather have Brendan Haywood or Theo Ratliff on my team than Brad ing Miller.
I'd even give Kwame Brown or Samuel Dalembert near even odds against that slow, soft, injury-prone "All-Star".
Since when is Carlos Boozer a center? Or a lot of these guys.
I'd do it.
It makes Sac an instant threat in the West now.
+Bibby
+Artest
+KG
+Whoever
+Miller
That's not a bad lineup at all.
Between KG and Artest...they could guard just about any position on the floor.
this would be a great trade.
Too bad it'll never happen.
Well, strictly centers... Shaq, Yao, Kaman, Wallace, Krstic
did rasho post up better playoff stats this season then miller?rasho>miller
The Bulls have the young talent to trade, but can Minnesota fans sit around for another two years and handle sucking again? Bibby/Miller/KT/19th or Bonzi/Miller/KT/19th gives them a decent product to put on the floor. Contenders? No, but at least more watchable then they have been.
McHale needs a quick fix. He is on thin ice. He also doesn't want to build some young team only to have it given to the new GM when he's fired.
This is a done deal.
Take it to the bank..... I guarantee it…
My sources inside the Kings org have told me and me alone it is almost done
My personal contacts inside the Maloof family have verified it as well...
Three bee reporters told me the same when we did lunch and the gypsy women told my momma if I rub my lucky rabbit foot and lucky squirrel foot every night for a week it will be so...
your team will suck either way so it doesnt really matter.
Garnett or no Garnett, the Kings are just one Artest meltdown away from having another ruined season.
Take that to the bank, my friends!
talk to me when your team gets some talent, your gm sucks.
You do have a good track record right? Didn't you predict the Musselman hiring?
And don't lie about the rabbit and squirrel feet, you know you cooked those up last night along with that fish you speared in your creek.
