I dont know the contracts but i wouldnt mind dumping George/Hassell or Juwan Howard for miller. It would be a great deal for Dallas considering Stack is aging and they dont have a lot of depth at SG.
Miller would love to be a Maverick?

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Mike Miller is reportedly being shopped as part of the Grizzlies' clearance sale according to the Dallas Morning News. As is the case with most good players on the trade market, the Mavs have been mentioned as a possible destination for Miller.
"That'd be fun," Miller said. "They've got a great team. ... They've got a lot of talent already. I don't know if they need me."
The Mavs could find a spot for a 6-8 pure shooter averaging 17 points and 6.7 rebounds per game. Miller, who is shooting 51 percent from the floor and 43 percent from 3-point range, would be a good fit on the wing opposite Josh Howard.

I'm sure we could just give up a draft pick or two, and a filler, considering how cheaply they gave away Gasol. This would be a VERY nice pickup.
He'd be a great fit as a Mav and would firmly fill the hole at SG, but I don't know what contracts we have that they would take. Supposedly they want full value for Miller while they gave Gasol away for Kwame's expiring and picks. They won't take Terry or Stack's contract. Dallas is kind of screwed in that they don't have the pieces a rebuilding team would want, not unless they're willing to part with Bass or Harris.
It would have been smarter to do this fire sale last summer, because they were demanding so much for Gasol and a lot of teams were in discussion. Now they are giving away people for free. Memphis should have pulled a Gasol trade with Chicago earlier this year. I dont think they will trade any young prospects but Id like to get a max deal out of them. Rudy Gay?
I would love this deal though it would hurt out defense. He would help space the floor better and give Harris more space to operate.
I hate to think that the Suns could have Miller for the trade exception and the Atlanta 1st, but that all that's keeping it from happening is a cheap-ass owner trying deserately yo make money without spending money despite making over 35 million in profit last season. He has the money. He's making money. Yet, he sits on said money.
er!!!
^ I agree, Mike Miller would rip assholes if he were on the Suns.
Now we know why Pop is so pissed at Memphis-- Pau to LA and Miller to Dallas!!
i would love to answer this but i'd be marked for slanderous, albeit scandalous, accusations.![]()
We can garentee Mike Miller a starting spot and he will be undoubtly become a 3rd option on our team getting wide open looks at the three-point land! AND he doesnt need to guard any tough wing players because Battier will handle them! PLEASE COME TO THE ROCKETS MIKE
hmmmm.....
If Mike Miller is looking for a jump shooting-only team, Dallas is his best bet
Dude think before you ing post
Says the whose favorite teams jack up more 3s than damn near anyone else in the league.
Why do reporters make this news?
What was Miller supposed to say when asked by Mav reporters if he wanted to play for Dallas? " S NO"
I guarantee he would have had the same answer if asked about any of the other teams minus the Knicks.
Get his ass in Dallas. When I go to Grizzly games he's the only guy I cheer for.
All Dallas would need to do is package some expiring contracts (Stack) and a 1st round draft pick and it could probably be done.
Remember, the Grizz want to shed salary for the impending sale. To say they want maximum value is kind of silly for them. They'd be better off taking expiring contracts and draft picks - ala Gasol.
Stack has two more years on his deal after this season. I don't think Memphis is interested. I would LOVE to have Miller in blue and green, but I don't see what we have to entice them.
We'll gladly take him, SmegmaDynasty. Thanks for the insight.
Yeah, but I'll bet if you have a shot chart, Dallas does put up more jumpers than SA, which is what he said. I don't believe he mentioned three pointers at all. RIF. SA does put up the threes, but we also get a LOT of shots/points in the paint from Parker and Duncan.
SpursDynasty's favorite team was changed to Golden State.
Don't the Mavs still have the KVH deal? They also can offer up Ager, R. Terry that Fazekas kid or that European kid they drafted and a draft pick plus a filler for Miller. The Mavs have the pieces if they really wanted to pursue it I believe.
