    Pretty much what I expect from Miller. Solid veteran.

    Had a couple chances to talk to him on the long road trip and he is real cool. Kinda shy, and keeps to himself, but was real cool. I think coming down the stretch he and BRoy will make a kick ass backcourt!

    HCP you watch all the games... do you think Dre "dominates the ball?"

    I just don't see it.

    Hello darkness, my old friend
    I think so, too. For all that Roy is unsure of his role, he seems to have pretty positive things to say about Miller.

    His game is to set up other players, so he is going to need the rock in his hand a lot. That said, the way he distributes the rock to his teamates is amazing. Watch Brandon. LA and Greg when they receive an entry pass from him. All they have to do is go up for the shot. His court vision is great. My one complaint is his jumper. The fact he can't shoot is not news to anybody, but it has looked bad. He has to shoot those wide open ones though just to keep the defense honest. There is a good and bad way of dominating the ball and to answer your question I'd say yes he does, but I don't think it is a detriment to the team.

    I thought the local media was against Miller? Obama couldn't have received a more favorable article from the Oregonian.

    Live up to it, 'Dre.
