Joel needs to go. I get that the guy is loved, and I love that he is a beast on the floor. But when Chris Johnson is foing more than you.......
I don't think Joel has a lot of value right now. Maybe to toughen up an eastern conference playoff team to take on the fake toughness of the celtics?
No, it's not just PapaG. There are multiple Miller h8trs posting here (unless PapaG is using sock puppets, which he has done in the past). Perhaps you missed this thread: Bye, bye, Andre Miller That guy h8ts Miller so much he wants to waive him, continue to pay his salary and get nothing in return. Totally illogical. Even if Miller did suck (he doesn't), he has trade value as an expiring contract (I know, team option - same thing). Waiving him would be just plain stupid, but it's a perfect example of the irrational hatred directed at Andre Miller by multiple posters in this forum. BNM
he's just so ground bound now. Not entirely surprising given the severity of his injuries and the success rate for guys coming back from that injury (McDyess was never the same either). Hopefully somebody will want the cap relief he represents and hopefully Cho (and Hat-Guy, Kolde, Larry Miller, plus the janitor) can orchestrate something so we don't let an expiring contract evaporate again with nothing in return.
That guy has 315 posts...and constantly makes stupid trade proposals. I don't know about you, but I doubt defending Miller is going to do anything to stop them. There are usually people who appreciate Miller's game too. I just don't see the need to go out of your way to "call out the h8ers".
Aamazing as it is, it was bound to happen sooner or later not IF but when. Turns out B-ROY getting broke was a good thing for LMA, La Marcus All Star!
Again, I'm not defending Miller, and I'm not trying to stop anyone from doing anything. I'm just trying to balance out all the negativity unfairly directed at Miller. I'm calling them out because they deserve it. If they are going to bash Miller at every turn, they should also have the balls to show up and give him credit when he deserves it. But, they don't. So, I do. BNM
Lamarcus was amazing tonight. Miller took both their point guards to school in the post. What I was really surprised about was how long they took to start doubling Aldridge. They didn't start doubling him until Blair picked up his 3rd and Aldridge was well more than halfway towards his point total. The bench fortunately made some plays, and because Aldridge was rested, he was able to log big minutes and carry the scoring load for them. I wish somebody off the bench would start scoring more dependably. Aldridge gets like 2 minutes of rest a game because they can't hold his jock strap for 2 minutes. One thing I thought was concerning was Joels play. Man he did not look like he deserved to be out on the court tonight. I know he is trying, and Joel has always been a favorite. But tonight he looked like he couldn't even move and the speed of the game, he seemed to be standing in the middle of a swirl never able to quite keep up. He always seemed to be a bit behind the play all night long. I would have to say so far that despite the Spurs record, they don't really impress me as a team. Boston is a much tougher team IMO. Maybe it is just matchups.
