Miller...good Idea! would be great to have along side Bass and Pie. Those three would finally give us an  2nd team that could hold its own and take big minutes from the three old guys. Throw in Steim and AB/Moore and thats a decent bench of 5 .

Just not sure how you get him either.  :-\



With Rondo day to day, which to me means questionable for Friday and who knows how long, we definitely need a strong backup pg like Andre Miller.

With Fernandez down, a scoring 2 like Ray could make Denver real strong.

Andre Miller and Koufos for Ray works with the $$$, and maybe we ask for Denver's 1st this year since they are getting the best player in the trade:

Denver gets a deadly 2 for their title run, and we get another 1st, a verstaile 1 who can play the 2 even though he's 6'2' with a deadly mid-range game and great handle and craftiness in Dre and a future Center in Koufos.

Andre Miller? Aaron Brooks? (but not until free from China in March), Allen Iverson?(I can't believe I am saying his name, but he can't be worse than Bradley and especially No Moore was tonite.)

Anybody have any ideas?

Bradley still needs to get experience running an offense, but I thought he looked very good tonight.

highly encouraged.  I'm a fan.  I don't mind him at the 2 either, though backup 2 probably.

I agree, but Moore looked like he didn't belong in the NBA, even when he was playing against their bench.

Bradley's a keeper, but Dooling is no pg.

Who's still out there as a stopgap, even someone to pair with Bradley?

Antonio Daniels? Arroyo? Boykins? Acie Law?

This isn't our real problem.  Oh, we don't have a back up point guard that cost us games, get real.  We did fine in the 80s with really no PG.  DJ was not a passer primarily (we had a point forward in Larry) or the like who was there backup PG?

We got killed on the boards.  KG and O'Neal are gassed and your worried about a backup PG??????

Bradley is basically our "backup" "PG" - and I use both terms loosely...

When given an opportunity to play with our starters, he had a whopping ONE assist.  Yes, that is not a misprint... ONE assist.

We have ONLY ONE true PG on this team... 

Danny needs to wake up to the idea that this is the team he has built, and unless Rondo plays 40+ minutes a night (and he's taking a beating) we don't have anyone who can run this ship.

Will Bynum

Funny you mention him.  He's a bit banged up right now, and he's getting inconsistent minutes with Detroit.

The Pistons just signed Walker Russell, Jr. up from the D-League yesterday.  Bynum actually makes a bit of sense if a small trade could be worked out.

But I'm to the point this season is a throw-away...just let this group limp to the finish line and ride it out.

I thought he looked good too considering it's his first start with a good run of minutes. Not sure why Doc didn't put him back in in the late 3rd and early 4th qtrs when they played with no point guard. Pierce, Marquis and Ray looked horrible at the point.
