Morning Report: Moving Brad Miller?

The Market For Brad Miller: The Sacramento Kings are getting their fair share of national attention, not for winning games or playing impressive basketball, but because they may have a missing piece for a playoff bound team and seem open to moving it.

League sources say the Kings have a standing offer of Shawn Marion in exchange for Brad Miller and Kenny Thomas – that deal seems to be the floor in which the Kings are negotiating from. The goal is to shop this out until the best deal can be found. Marion is not viewed as a long term asset for anyone if traded from Miami, although an off-season sign-and-trade deal would seem to the only way Marion could get anywhere close to the dollars he's making this season. Marion is in the his final season earning upwards of $17.8 million. According to League sources, the Kings are pondering Marion strictly from a salary dump point of view, although it seems that a mixture of ending deals with promising draft picks or young players is more along the lines of what the Kings are hoping. Brad Miller has been rumored to Miami and Chicago, although the Bulls continue to deny any interest in trades, despite recent internal disputes with young guys like Tyrus Thomas, Thabo Sefolosha and Joakim Noah. New Kings' assistant general manager Jason Levien officially starts today, you can expect his first order of business will be finding the market for the Kings' pieces and to begin working with Geoff Petrie on setting the table for the future. That's expected to start with moving Brad Miller before the February 19th trade deadline. Read more...
