Pistons Close to Offering Offer Sheet For CJ Miles

According to 6:38PM Update of Hoopsworld, Pistons Close to signing Miles. Not much info..But I will take what I can at this point. See Below:

Pistons Seek a Swingman: The Pistons are in the process of finding a new swingman and are believed to be close to offer C.J. Miles of the Utah Jazz an offer sheet. Miles is yet another young, athletic player with a nice perimeter offensive game. He's still only 21 years old and has shown flashes of potential in his limited playing time. He could fit in nicely with a Pistons squad hoping to increase their overall athleticism. The Pistons are also said to be interested in bringing back Carlos Delfino (restricted free agent in Toronto) and Walter Herrmann.

Re: Pistons Close to Offering Offer Sheet For CJ Miles

Another 6-6 guy in the mode of Hayes and Mo Evans. Can he defend, rebound and slash or will he another jump shooter? His stats show that he average 1.3 boards a game in 11.5 minutes agame...somebody do a quick 48 minute stat

Be careful when you google CJ, as you might wind up with the other CJ miles who is shorter at 4'9, but may be good ball handler http://www.pbase.com/tgeorgephotography/cj

Re: Pistons Close to Offering Offer Sheet For CJ Miles

LMAO, i so called it. I was just one the phone w/ one of my friends and i was talking about how we need Posey, but we'll probably end up w/ CJ Miles, and i was Who the F is CJ Miles? And i meant it in a like he's not great type of way, but he misunderstood and was like he plays on UTAH and started listing stuff about him . . .

Too funny.

Re: Pistons Close to Offering Offer Sheet For CJ Miles

So Joe Dumars feels that he didn't draft enough second round longshots.

Now he's going to sign one as a free agent?

What's next? Will we bring back Korleone Young?

Re: Pistons Close to Offering Offer Sheet For CJ Miles

A quote I found on CJ:

CJ Miles is an interesting player. He is only 21 and has shown, on occasion, that he can put the ball in the hoop. The only problem is that Jerry Sloan just doesn't trust him enough.
He forces shots a lot, rushes the fast break, and doesn't always play defense, something that will put him in Sloan's doghouse fast.

Sounds familiar, kind of a Jarvis Flip Murray hybrid.

Sounds like exactly the type of guy to really put us over the top.

I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if all of our starting 5 are back next season. In fact, at this point, I'd be surprised if they weren't.

Re: Pistons Close to Offering Offer Sheet For CJ Miles

According to Wikipedia:

Quote:
Miles is perhaps best known as the subject of one of the most memorable post-game interviews of the 2006-07 NBA season, where coach Jerry Sloan stated, "I don't care if he's 19 or 30. If he's going to be on the floor in the NBA, he's got to be able to step up and get after it. We can't put diapers on him one night, and a jockstrap the next night. It's just the way it is." Miles at the time was the youngest player on the Jazz roster.
The original article is here.
