The third season of the deal is partially guaranteed. Atlanta, Boston, Miami and Cleveland are among the teams that have courted Miller since free agency began July 1, with Chicago also expressing interest in re-signing him.

Sun Tzu Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 (edited) Overpaid but if Yao doesn't stay healthy it'll be worth it. If Yao does stay healthy the Rockets will still be pretty deadly with their line up. Brooks, Lowry, Martin, Ariza, Battier, Scola, Yao, Miller, Hayes, Buddinger, Patterson, Andersen?

Poe Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 The Rockets have some amazing depth. Best bench in the league already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poe Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Patterson is better than Hill? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cobb Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 Great. One less center available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*Swish* Posted July 18, 2010 Report Share Posted July 18, 2010 He was great off the bench for the Bulls and I'm sure he'll be great for the Rockets. I thought about it 2 days ago when they just signed him and I was like: ''kind of useless! they have Hill, Scola and Yao'' but after, I think about it and I'm like ''Scola is just 6''9 and Brad Miller will be great off the bench and he's 7''0'' anyways, GREAT sign for the Rockets. they look strong with Petterson who's having a great summer league Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nitro Posted July 19, 2010 Report Share Posted July 19, 2010 It's not a bad signing because the Rockets desperately needed depth in the frontcourt (Yao or no Yao), but $5M a year? Miller's a good player and his passing will be showcased in Adelman's system, but he's 33 years old and shot a career-worst 43% last season. He's also soft, and ideally Yao's backup Center should be a bruiser that can defend and rebound well. Miller doesn't fit that criterea too well.

He's known to be one of the dirtiest players in the league right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
