As the article says 3 years, 21 mil.  Not bad for portland and Brandon Roy to have an experienced pg like Miller to help them out.

Really good for Portland.  He is an  upgrade over what they had.



I think there is now a good chance the 76ers do not make the playoffs.

That's a much more reasonable price tag than that $10 mil/year nonsense he and his agent were spouting earlier.

I don't think this is necessarily the end for Blake in Portland, considering the recent rumors that Portland has been mentioning Bayless' name in trade talks.

I've said it before, Blake is perfect NBA backup PG. Unless they're ready to commit to Bayless at PG, they really ought to keep Blake.

I'd take Bayless or Blake. Only thing appealing to them would be davis in a s&t, though I don't think that could work.

Team option 3rd yr for Portland. Good deal for them.

Doubt they'll pickup that third year option. Its basically a 2 year contract. Hopefully Bayless matures enough to take over, unless he's a bust. Overall its a great pickup.

I think Miller is a very bad fit in Portland (can't shoot). They shouldn't sign him.

Assuming Rudy stays and Webster is healthy this year, Portland will have some decent outside shooting (in addition to Roy). I have to admit, it wouldn't hurt if they got a better shooter at PG. Then again, they didn't have Webster at all last year and he's supposed to be a great 3 pt. shooter (if he can ever get healthy long enough to play). But overall, I don't think it's a bad fit at all, especially for the money and the years.
