    If the Wizards can remain relatively healthy and Gil is back to his 06-07 form all year, then this is a great deal for them as they would now have a legit bench and wouldn't have to worry about killing their starters(Arenas, Butler, Jamison)since they would have some nice options to bring off the bench.

    I agree, as I mentioned it's a good deal and it obviously improves their team but the whole "this is a huge steal for the Wiz" perspective, I just don't see it.

        This deal makes the Wizards a deeper team and barring injury, a contender in the eastern conference. Miller will be will in Flip's system, and hopefully he can shoot a good 3 pt % like historically he does and as David Aldridge states, both Miller and Foye are under 30.

          Foye is a mediocre combo guard who still has no idea how to play acceptable defense.
          Mike Miller is a good shooter from the outskirts and as a plus scores economically. He is a surprisingly good rebounder on the boards as well. He still isn't an adequate defender though and he didn't play with much heart at all last year.

            You don't think he'll play with more heart when his team has playoff chances?

                When you factor in that Minny will likely do NOTHING productive w/ the big anyways...yea...it is. IMO two established players w/ soon-to-be expiring contracts is better than anything the Wiz would've picked at 5 WHEN you consider the current corps in the "win now" approach.:wink:

                    I don't think it has much to do with the "win now" approach.

                    The only players outside of Griffin and possibly Rubio (both who would be long gone before the 5 pick) who can be actual pieces on a legit team are Evans and Jennings, both of whom have the for-some-reason-important "character flaws."

                    I don't think Curry, Hill, or Harden would help us now, soon, or in the distant future. Now, for a team like the Lakers, Spurs, Celtics, Magic, or Cavs, maybe they'd have a place as the 5th-7th option, but as core building pieces, I don't see it.

                    To be fair, aside from the Lakers, Cavs, Spurs, and Celtics, how many legit title contenders are there?
                    The team that beat the Cavs and Celtics?

                      I am really going to miss foye on the team, he was actually looking really good towards the end of the season next year, I am anxious to see who they take in the draft

                          These might be the right players, as Foye has shown flashes, but I have no faith in the Flipper. Still think the Wiz could be scary if healthy, tho.

                              It's a typo, guy. I just realized it while watching PTI and fixed it now.

                              So, anyone else think that the Timberwolves will go with Stephen Curry if they don't shop the #5 pick? I've heard that they may trade 2 of their 3 first round picks (#5 and #18 or #5 and #6) for a shot at Rubio in the Grizzlies' pick.

                                JVG just said Washington will win 50 games on the draft special airing right now.

                                Should be interesting.
