Farewell Mike Miller! (Appreciation thread) 

Post#1 » by Altered_Beast » Tue Jul 16, 2013 7:28 pm

you may not have lived up to the expectations the team had but unfortunately you caught some tough breaks in the injury department. loved your hustle and unconsciousness when it came to LETTING IT FLY!!

will never forget 2012 finals game 5

best of luck in the future mike, sad to see you go but basketball is a business and your not worth 30 million.

I will miss him greatly. He was always a professional with us and I'm glad he won 2 rings. I would welcome him back for vet min with open arms when his contract ends.

And to the OP he lived up to my expectations. He did what he was supposed to do when it mattered most.

i do feel better though learning that he wanted to be traded. means he wasnt completely satisfied. hes still going to get paid and now he might have a better chance to play somewhere else

The experience didn't play out as I thought it would when we signed him, but he was there when it counted; big time. Always played with everything he had. Good guy off the court too, it seems. Wish he could have stayed during this run.

Let it fly.

I didn't think I'd be this sad. Good luck Mike, thanks for the memories. Definitely will not be forgotten, Game 5 against OKC was legendary.

Man no matter how injured he was, he was still one of the best hustlers on this team, decent rebounder (many times he has saved us and gave us additional possessions), best 3 point shooters in a Heat uniform.

However, whoever he plays with, he will get injured inevitably. Spo didn't play this dude til the playoffs and he was READY to go. But another team won't treat him that way. He wanted the play time but he'd get injured as soon as he'd be on the floor :lol:.

I'll miss ya Mike! :(

Thank you Mike Miller for what you contributed to us in your 3 year tenure with the team.Even though a majority of it was injury-filled you had your share of moments in the post season and of course the big game 5 close out.

You will be missed by Heat Nation... LET IT FLY!

This just doesn't feel right.. I know he hasn't been with us long but I feel like he's been apart of this team forever. It's going to be hard seeing him in another jersey. I know this won't happen but I hope he retires and works for our team in some way. But it was nice hosting you Mike. Let it fly!!

44.4% from 3 for the full playoffs (2013).

Thank you miller!!

On a side note, who would've thought that Norris would end up shooting above 50% from 3? It's a cole world baby.

Fluke or not, lil Norris is improving.

Smh this move just pissed me of lmao. MM was key to our championship run we surely will miss him. Such a hard worker and hell of a player also classy, an art of a true champion. Wonder who will we replace instead of him now we have 3 spots remaining.
