The Resurgence of Mike Miller 

Post#1 » by vanjulio » Tue Apr 22, 2014 8:08 pm

I could have made this a blog post but I happened to notice this interesting stat about Mike Miller.
He is the only player on the team this year to play all 82 games, and now both playoff games too.

The last time he played all 82 games was his rookie season in Orlando! This is awesome since he has never really been 100% healthy since he went to Minny and then Miami. Really great story and I'm happy for him.

It's a good accomplishment for MM to be the only one on the squad to play 82 games. Reminds me of when T-Mac and MM played together and Mac gave MM the nickname "Spanky". It's was funny as hell at the time and only would stick during his short tenure with the Magic.

Big ups to MM. It was a long time coming.

One of my all time favorite Grizz players. Very glad to have got him to autograph my Miller jersey. Sadly, I still watch highlights of his 45 point game back in 2007 (looks like I need to find more hobbies). But overall, I'm glad he's back on the team this year for 3-point shooting and leadership. Hope he just retires a grizzly from here.

Eliot Perry was on the Eric Hasseltine show yesterday and they asked him who on the Grizzlies can have a "Reggie Jackson" game yesterday, like he did in game 4. His answer?

MIKE MILLER!


SO CLUTCH ON THE 3BALL.

Years ago someone asked him his range. "THE GYM". Last night Mike Fratello spoke about him. "He has no range because his range is infinite. When you cross half-court he can make it from anywhere".
