found this video on youtube i think its from last year when he started practicing again....looks like hes still as explosive as he ever was....KP is a genious but I question what really went on here... watch 0:19 i just dont get it what the helll kind of doc's would say his career is over?

nice to see a blazers fan not rooting against darius BTW, very magnanimous of you

I think Darius can be explosive on any given day. I just don't think his knee can take the pounding over the long haul. I hope he proves me wrong. But I think if we sign Sam I Am, Its unlikely Miles makes the team. Unless, Danny has a trade up his sleeve.

Darius got a bad rep for whatever reason, I love the guy phenominal athlete he had the potential before maybe not the passion but now he has both plus he wants to prove Portland wrong so i thinkn he's more determined than ever I wish him well. I hope he is signed!


ps anyone think he'd ever come back to P town?

sorry, i hope that worx

supposedly he cant cut or jump or dunk anymore.....wtf ever heres proof guys

im a blazer fan no doubt and a huge fan of KP but seriously you cut DM and then you work out Shaun Livingston and apparently Portland is the favorite to land him but wtf...everyone can see his damn injury on youtube that was worse than Darius' they almost amputated his leg but "independent doctors" labled Darius's injury as "Career Ending"

You're making zero sense. :\

Good point. I think that the Blazers said that it was mainly the result of a botched surgery though, correct? Maybe Livingston had a better surgeon, and there's also the fact that he doesn't make 9 million a year.

The issue of overworking his knee shouldn't be a problem in a reserve role backing up 2 guys who play 38 minutes a night. He's said that he wants to be a starter again, which is a good goal to have, but something that I don't see happening. One negative about Miles is that if he is able to get back to where he was, I don't see him sticking around next year, and we'll be back here next year with the Who'll replace Miles? threads.
