I don't think we should shop Miller unless we get something really good back. He brings alot to the team both on and off the court and it's not something that can be easily replaced. I'm also hesitant to move him after losing Brewer.
Saying that if we get a really good deal we'd have to consider it.

It would take a lot for Miller to go. You can't just bring in a guy that's important to a rebuilding team and then trade him away after 20 games. Any trade that he would be involved in better bring in a very good young talent.

Miller can't compete in the NBA right now playing SG. He has to play SF, at least on the Wolves current roster.

I'm dissapointed in him. If we can move him for: a) Chris Kaman b) Gerald Wallace c) Luol Deng
maaaaaybe even...
d) Corey Maggette
then I'm all for the trade. He's just not cutting it here, I don't know why.

Because he's being a good little veteran and defering to our youth. It's not the best plan for winning but it's not taking shots away from guys like Foye or McCants even if they are wasting them.

Who would you want off the Raps roster for Miller?

Raptors have very few players who could match salaries. I'm assuming Bosh, Calderon and JO are off limits.
The deal would have to revolve around A.Parker+Kapono. We could send...
Miller 9m (2 years) McCants 2.8m (1 year)
for
Parker 4.5m (1 year) Kapono 5m (2 years)
but it improves Toronto only a bit and makes us worse. Only reason would be financial since Parker is a larger expiring and swapping Miller's deal for Kapono would save us some money. Miller>Kapono though. A deal revolving around Parker and Humprhies is also unlikely since whatever I come up with we'd have to take one more player than we are giving away (Joey Graham) who would be waiver material. And Humphries without giving any big-man up = loooogjam.
But I have to say, I'd happily snag JO from you guys if he's available. Miller+Cardinal+Collins for JO + filler (like Moon/Graham).

Miller+Cardinal+Collins for JO + filler (like Moon/Graham) that would be an awesome trade even though jefferson plays center very well i still think (especially if wolves could get jo) he would be even better at the 4. but dont you think it would create problems on offense especially? jo is not demanding lots of shots but both are not very good mid range shooters and might get in each others way down low? still a way to get a talent like him for cardinal and collins (with 1 1/2 years left) you go for it

Raptors would never do it anyway.  Not to mention Jermaine O'Neal would break a finer nail and be out the rest of the season if he knew he had to come to Minnesota.

Miller+Cardinal+Collins for JO + filler (like Moon/Graham). I'm going to have nightmares because of this.
