Hey Bonkers. You're starting to stutter. In case you didn't know, this thread is about who should start, Miles or Bell so we have to talk about your baby Miles. So I vote Bell for Utah, Miles for any place else. Bell can play, Miles can pretend to play. The Lakers wanted Bell and they have a great coach. Do you think they wanted Miles? The only thing the Lakers want from Miles is to keep guarding Briant.
 
Like the Suns of recent yore in an alternate universe. Shortish but instead of speed, built for more methodical Sloan stuff.

Dwill (Nash)
Bell (younger, pre-injury Bell)
Miles (some guy who's athletic and can shoot the 3 a bit)
Millsap (Marion)
Jefferson (Amare)

Could do well in the regular season. But could also get stomped in the playoffs by a taller team.

Please explain to me how Millsap and Marion are anything alike.

Take the comparison in context.

Marion was, and Millsap will be, undersized as starting PF. Marion had his athleticism; Sap his strength and effort to even things up a bit. That should do well through a good part of the regular season until the Jazz, like the Suns, face deep playoffs teams with tall bigs.

Also, with that lineup above, the Jazz, like the Suns will also be making a PF play C. Should be good enough in the regular season but could be groundhog day deeper in the playoffs.

Yes and it's the ONLY THREAD you have posted in. Just like the other board. Bryant wanted Bell because he hates playing against him. Show me a quote where any other Laker said they wanted him including their "great coach".

The Lakers can't say anything about Miles because he's under contract with another team and Bell wasn't. So you have no clue if they want him or not. Your just making **** up to fit your self delusions again.

So Miles hater and no idea about anything basketball related have you decided to tell us how Miles spurned you yet?

How has Miles Spurned me?

Through dumb, typical hopper luck he's looked good a couple of times, making you think he's the messiah of the wing position. This makes you post more and ruins my interwebz.

So, Thank you CJ Miles for ruining the interwebz. You and Prince musta got together on that one a few years back, but you've successfully ruined it for anyone that even resembles someone with a higher than 82 iq, by allowing Gregboncs to post. Thanks CJ... Thanks so much for that.

Shows how smart you are. I was not even talking to you. So though you say my IQ is lower than 82 how low did you just say yours was? Or are you saying you are Brainslut? In that case it makes a lot of sense. You both seem to be about as smart as one another and both Miles haters that refuse to see he has become a pretty good player.

Also I have never said he is more than a decent player at the wings that takes too much **** from haters like you and Brainslut.
 
It really blows me away that so many fans think Miles should start at SG. Or that Sloan would even pick Miles over Bell.

Man to Man defender: Bell>Miles
Outside Shooter: Bell>Miles
Shooting off screens: Bell>Miles
Taking charges: Bell>Miles

These are the things that Sloan likes in his SG's. I really don't get how this is so close. Miles is longer and has more athleticism but how often do our SG's really get to take advantage of that?

Its a no brainer. Bell is a way better SG for the Jazz than Miles. He shoots a way better percentage. He also takes his shots within the offense. His lateral quickness is way better than Miles also.

Thank you, I couldn't have said it any better.

My bet is all the voting for Miles are from the young'ens that didn't really see Bell play much.
