I'd rather have Roy, LMA, or Oden taking those shots. Throw in Rudy as well. Miller was supposed to distribute the ball. He has failed so far this season, and taking public shots at his teammates can't hide his own miserable stats.
Mocking a frequent poster who authored a well-researched post that had pages of responses, went against the board CW, and contained no personal attacks. Aim high, Ed. Let's start watching those emotions.
Miller's rings (and playoff victories) do speak volumes. Also, a player who bounces around the league, yet is "successful", raises no red flags.
Something tells me if you asked Andre Miller who he'd take between Roy and Iguodala he'd take Iguodala. Just my Jason Quick take.[/QUOTE] Iggy learned how to play off of the ball very well with Andre. BRoy hasn't made an attempt to do that so that would make sense. When they play together, one has the ball and the other one stands around...BRoy said Andre would make him better when we first got him, but he's not willing to put in the effort to make himself better. It's early in the season so hopefully I'm completely off.
I have no emotions. At least not online. And I was mocking that thread, not you. I was sub-mocking that you were "making no arguments" in it. Ed O.
Iguodala's numbers are basically the same as last year, except he's assisting more and rebounding more.
He may be taking more shots than Oden, but that does not seem to be his fault. He seldoms plays with Oden and when he does he gets him the ball more than anyone else. The games he played with Oden were in a 3 guard line up and he had the most passes to Oden of the three. When he is not playing with Oden he seems to be unable to get him the ball????
True nuff. But it should be pointed out that a player who can get to the line and shoot a high percentage there can considerably compensate for poor shooting from the floor. This is why Miller's true shooting percentage is 51% (which isn't great, but at least mirrors Steve Blake's true shooting percentages) Regardless, Miller in a grind-out half-court offense is being severely miscast and without the ability to get layups in the open court is probably not much more useful than Sergio was when he was here.
Antonio Harvey warned this summer that Miller would be a bad locker room guy and would disrupt chemistry. Many posters shot down that theory. I don't know if it is Miller, but the chemistry on and off the court is is not what it was last year. I think there is a good chance Miller might be the problem.
Less useful. Sergio is a better outside shooter. Yes, Miller can get to the basket and finish and get to the line and make his free throws. There is value in that; if used properly. So far, not so much.
