More on Mills - now its Celeveland!

Yeah, Oden08, you COULD find 10-15 mins for Mills if lucky (but do you really see Mo wanting to play less than about 36 mins), but think about my other point - what would they be asking him to do on the Cavs? Stay out of Lebrons way and jack up 3's!

Mills needs to learn how to run a real offence from a good point guard, not stand around and watch Lebron, or learn from an undersized gunner like Mo Williams. I want Mills to be a success and I doubt that he would develop the way he needs to on the Cavs.

Doctor - I didn't say you did! :-)

What I am saying is that I think Mo, West and Gibson would all be used at the point before Mills. You obviously disagree.

More importantly though, even if he did get minutes, he wouldn't be in a good situation to succeed, because his strength is getting to the basket and then hopefully finding the open man. How often do you see someone other than Lebron make that play on the Cavs? If you're not Lebron, then your job is to either rebound or shoot 3's. Neither of which Mills does well!

Doctor, West can play both positions, so in the event that Mo is traded, guess who would start ahead of Mills at PG?

I don't rate Gibson that highly either, but he has stuck at Cleveland and I think you would find that Coach Brown would prefer him to Mills until he proves his worth - especially because he can shoot and Mills is not highly regarded for his shooting yet.

Height is also a big issue for the Cavs backcourt right now. Think they want another short guard when they have Mo, West and Boobie?

I could see Mills being buried on the bench for at least 2 seasons before he gets a shot in Cleveland.

Who says LeBron will be in Cleveland in 2010? In any caee, this is a good indicator to teams valuing him as a let second rounder.

Its positive in that it shows yet another NBA team thinks it is worth finding out more about him.

He wouldn't want to actually end up there though, because not only would he be fighting for playing time behind Williams, West and Gibson, he wouldn't get the ball in his hands very often, since its the King's show in Cleveland.

I'm hopeful he will go higher than 30th now anyway! C'mon Atlanta @ #19!

Nice situation to be in. Pretty easy to get some assists with Lebron there. You would think the cavs would be looking for a taller guard since west, williams and gibson were a really short rotation.
