76ers still at impasse with Andre Miller

"Another conversation between 76ers president and general manager Ed Stefanski and the agent for free agent guard Andre Miller ended yesterday with no change to the status quo."We are still in the sign-and-trade mode," Stefanski said about his talk with Andy Miller, with whom he has spoken frequently since NBA free agency began.Meanwhile, with 10 players under contract, the Sixers are looking to add four to their roster in time for the 2009-10 season. If Andre Miller opts to sign with another organization - the New York Daily News reported that Miller met yesterday with the Knicks and last week with the Portland Trail Blazers officials - it would preclude the Sixers from perhaps getting a point guard back in a sign-and-trade deal.According to an NBA source, the Sixers have not been exactly bombarded with offers for a sign-and-trade agreement involving Miller. The 33-year-old Miller, who was hoping to land a three-year contract in the $30 million range, was offered one year for about $6 million by the Sixers.Regarding yesterday's meeting with the Knicks, Stefanski said only, "I'm not surprised."Andy Miller, Andre Miller's agent, could not be reached. In addition to being in need of a veteran point guard, the Sixers are looking to sign a swingman and two front-court players. With the most coveted free agents having already signed with their current team or a new one, the remaining possibilities are not going to hurt the Sixers' salary-cap scenario."
