    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Miller logged 25 minutes. He might not play much more when the regular season begins.Miller, 30, reported to camp overweight. That has not gone over well with Karl, especially in view of his more up-tempo offense."I don't think he's in the best of shape," Karl said. " . . . He fatigues quicker than (before). . . . Andre is at the stage of his career where he's going to have to spend more time on conditioning. . . . I think he'll be ready to play 30 minutes (to start the season). I don't know if he'll be ready to play 40."Miller said he lifted weights and played basketball during the offseason but didn't do enough conditioning. That became evident when he returned to Denver in mid-September."I gained a little bit of weight," said Miller, who is listed at 200 pounds and, while not revealing his weight, said he must lose 10 to 15 pounds. "When you're playing at a high level, you can't (have) extra baggage."</div>http://www.rockymountainnews.com/drmn/nba/...5086980,00.html

    That is not good. Miler has some of the best court vision in the NBA, and if he is not in shape by the start of the season, it could hurt the Nuggs.

    Kinda fucks up people picking up miller in fantasy leagues. After seeing this well, im kinda glad I didn't. He is still a good player that can adjust. I hope

    Not good, but I think he will be fine by the season starts. Or at least I hope he is, he is a big piece in their fast tempo offense.

    I picked up Miller later than he should have been in fantasy (with my friends, not our league). He will get back into shape, I'm not worried.

    I know you were joking, but:

    Kemp - drug problems
    Baker - drinking problems
    Miller - just didn't run this summer
