I think as Jason Lloyd mentioned this summer, the Cavs have really placed an emphasis on wanting guys who want to be here. I think that is why they passed on Miller. OKC is a good fit for him. He and Lamb can combine to form a decent SG.
 
HOU is the best fit for him IMO.
 
Hope U don't strain your back anytime soon MM..
 
Maybe I'm naive, but considering the Cavs went after Dunleavy, Korver, and Belinelli I think there is legitimate interest in Miller. They've made a play for younger guys with a similar skillset and have just missed out on these guys earlier in free agency.

I don't by into the whole getting LeBron's buddies line of thinking.

One thing though: We were looking at all of those free agent small forwards before we signed Earl Clark. Now that we've signed Earl Clark, we may have cooled on signing any other small forwards.

This is a good point. The Cavs certainly were pursuing a "pure shooter" type guy to add to the roster. I'm not sure Earl Clark removes that need as Clark is hardly a consistent shooter. Clark was brought in more for his defense. I still see Gee getting moved. The news and comments on him have practically been non-existent. But Miles is the more moveable piece.

It has been reported numerous times that the Cavs were still, even after their other free agents signings and draft picks, on the look out for a wing who can shoot.
 
I'm going to pretend this thread never happened. Don't worry Mike, we don't want you either.

So they just pulled a Lebron on him?
