This is ridiculous. 3 preseason games into the year and we have a 90 million dollar superstar whining about not finding his little niche and a newly acquired vet who should be doing his best to make a good first impression whining about playing time and starting. Time for someone to sit these whiny bastards down tell them how it's gonna be.
It doesn't really work like that. Assists don't tell the whole story. I do know one thing, and it's been said by Quick/people that have seen the games, that Andre Miller is consistently feeding Greg Oden the ball. Alley-oops, in the post, etc. Sounds good to me.
That's a good thing. But if you look at the tally of shot's he is putting up compared to the total amount assists, he is not distributing at the rate I thought he would.
Players could be missing shots. We don't know, we haven't seen the games. But when you consider the Blazers shot under 40% last night I'd say that could be one reason why. It's also pre-season. I'd wait until the regular season starts before getting too worried.
OK, I'll volunteer. You, the whiny vet who has never won 54 games in a season, shut the eff up. You, the All-Star just signed to a max extension, tell me what the problem is right now.
Be da deet be da deet WE HAVE AN IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT! Andre Miller wants to start! Stayed tuned for more "breaking" news.
Be da deet be da deet HE WOULDN'T HAVE SIGNED WITH PORTLAND HAD HE KNOWN HE WOULD ACTUALLY HAVE TO COMPETE FOR PLAYING TIME.
I love how some of you are against Miller right now. Last season, there were countless times many of you were complaining about Blake being your starting point guard. And now it's different? I'm surprised Nate is dumb enough to have Miller come off the bench.
LOL are you serious? Okay, after dinner I'll go look up all your posts bitching about how he showed up late to the pre-camp workouts. I'll also find the posts about how he failed to pass Nate's physical challenge. And if memory serves me correctly, I'll find one about how Miller and Roy haven't talked.... blah blah blah. Victim.
I love how your vague criticism is so vague. I never complained about Blake last year. I never complained about Miller untiil he started crying to the media.
Another antisocial media-avoiding loner was Arvydas Sabonis. He just went home after games, instead of going out with his teammates for wine, women, and song. As soon as Bob Whitsitt left, Sabonis went back to Russia. Shouldn't surprise, since Whitsitt's persuasion was the only reason he finally came here in the first place. Heavens to Betsy, I'm talking about Bob Whitsitt ! Excuse me!
It's my fault that Andre Miller is complaining to Yahoo! Sports about having to compete for playing time on a 54-win team. Blame me!
