Definitely a guy that got under my skin until he was on our team. It was great to have him even if it was for a few games. Hope he comes back in the future as an assistant under Adelman.

I'd love to see him come back and work with Kevin on his passing. I've always liked Miller as a player.

Kevin looks like a small child now.

I hope he comes back, seems like a smart guy. Other then that he didn't do much, but not many people on this team did, so meh.

Ricky's beard is coming in pretty good, or is it just because hes sitting next to Kevin?

Anyone see the pic, and think of 2k12 MyPlayer?

This is the kind of stuff I'll always remember Brad Miller for:
(all you really need to see is like the first 30 seconds. He sets an awesome screen at 0:14 and then the hard foul/wade flop a little later.)
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HarLFp4c6yU&feature=results_video&playnext=1&list=PLD90D71C949C12A94[/youtube]

He also was the 1st guy I've seen religiously do that thing where you set a pointless overtly hard screen at the top of the key on the opponents side for no reason other then to straight up flatten the defending PG who would never expect that he is a second away from running into a brick wall. I remember when Brad Miller as a King did this to Devin Harris when he was a Maverick. Harris hit the deck hard and they called an injury timeout so he could get his bearings back. It was one of the dirtiest plays I've seen, but it was so clever of Brad to basically take out a weak little PG by doing something completely legal (although completely absurd).

I'm glad Brad Miller was a wolf for awhile. I've always liked him as a player, and I remember way back when I'd take him in the 2nd/3rd round of for my fantasy teams as a no brainer, and he'd never disappoint. I really like big men that can pass, and Miller is one of the best. He will be missed. Hopefully he puts down the rifle and gets into some form of big-man coaching.
