Objective: Center

[Farms Block]

I don't know what is going on in Brad Miller's head right now but with a new coach his role on this team may or may not drastically change.

Point blank if we take this whole "defense first" mentality and lose the Princeton style offense where does Miller fit into that? He may be better off a four slot on this team but I think Shareef is definately the guy for the four so again where does that leave him? If Bonzi is forced (as if anyone's actually forcing him)to rebound and bang with the big boys next season as he did in the playoffs it will be a matter of time before injury occurs. After Bonzi Artest MAY be our best pound for pound rebounder, and last time I heard having your # 2 and 3 spots being power rebounders will never work for long.

My Opinion: Sign Jamal Magloire(and change) for Miller.The guy is a walking double-double and a shot blocker and clearly wants out of Milwaukee from what I've read due to Andrew Bogut's role in their offense. I know from reading this site most of you are more savvy about salary cap issues than myself, but seems it could work weel for a new look Kings.

2nd Option: Joel Pryzbilla as a backup for Miller and hope he stays healthy.

nice first post, but there is already a thread on centers that could replace miller. but i can answer your first question. with a new coach comming in its obvious that the princeton is out the door. time to play some hard nose basketball. we are going to attack the basket, rebound and pay defense.

Question: Where does Brad Miller fit in with out a high post offense.

Answer: He doesn't. Time for him to go. But it will be tough to get someone the Kings actually want for a slow white guy who can't play much defense, because of his lack of athleticism.

Trade him to Washington, they play the Princeton a lot.


B. Miller

Jamaal Magloire/somehow Mohammed (I know w/ Bonzi)/Haywood, along with that get Griffin/Elson/Ely for back-up C/PF or maybe starting PF.

He seemed to do OK in Indiana.

We could do much better than Magloire for Miller. Consider that Magloire was had for Desmond Mason, who we almost got for Kenny Thomas, I think SAR+sweetner could net us Magloire if that's what we wanted to do.

 

[Kings113]

Also had a R1 pick in there w/ Mason to Hornets.

Maybe Chandler (w/ Duhon) for Miller/filler. Chicago media and a few fans have spoken positively of him from what I've read. Bulls would still get size with their high draft pick, and the MLE and LLE.

Wow one bad playoff series and Brad's the worst player in the world?

Somehow I don't see Washington trading away their entire frontcourt for a 7-foot point guard. Would be nice, though.

I hate to get rid of SAR because he's a legit big man starter with a very good contract.

And I don't even want to envision a Miller/Magloire frontcourt.

Miller/Magloire wouldn't happen.

Actually his whole playoff career has been pretty bad. He somehow finds a way to get lost and "disappear" in the playoffs... Kinda reminds me of someone I used to know... But i forgot all about that. All I remember was we got a whole lot better after we traded for Artest

 

[Kings113]

I liked him in 2004 vs. the Mavs and Wolves. He was still a hard-playing guy then, from what I remember. 04-05 was kinda mixed, 05 got some more one-sided than 04-05.

Wiz do that deal in a second. I love Etan but Kings pass, majorly.

 

[SacTownKid]

How about Kandi man as backup, he could help us.

 

[y2kings]

boozer

there's always reports of the Jazz trading boozer...if we had Boozer, we'd have more of a rebouding presence. Brad could then hopefully assume the role that vlade had...that is, limited scoring, passing and guarding the poorer C/PF on the other team.

 

[West_Gunslinger16]

Boozer is much more dangerous to have than Camby.

 

[PFFFT!!]

Anyone in the draft? Perhaps a 7 footer that can pass and rebound. Doesn't have to shoot. Who can that be? We can trade up.

right... cause he played SO well in the playoffs the previous years.

 

[AleksandarN]

Darko would be the ideal center for this team. Too bad we did not nab whem we had the chance

 

[AriesMar27]

how about reef for darko and a 2nd rounder.... reef and howard would be a nice front court for the magic..... and we all know that we cant trade thomas.... darko can back up the 4 & 5....

Magic probably finished way too stong for any of that. They made a svery smart move to get their frontcourt of the future, and quite a frontcourt it is too. Hard to see them trading it away for a middleaged player like Reef so soon after they put it together.
