The Official Andre Miller Thread

[Applejack]

Does this thread exist yet? If not, shame on us.

Andre loves the playoffs. He scored 28 last night against Golden State, including the game winner.

Great thread idea. Andre is awesome.

[Jarid in Cedar]

Miller could play another 5 years. His game doesn't depend on freak athleticism or explosiveness. Just crafty and intelligent.

Perhaps. He has become a real liability on defense over the past few years. I think he can stick around for a few more, but his years of scoring 28 points in a playoff game are coming to a close. It's nice to see him get a game winner like this at 37.

[Applejack]

Bump.

Funk, what's the deal with making more Andre Miller posts on CUF than on his home-board? Please place all Andre Miller chatter on this thread.

[Applejack]

It was against the horrendous Jazz and the even more horrendous Jamaal Tinsley, but this is a pretty nice move for a 37 year old.

Zach Lowe on Miller last year.


G Dr. Andre Miller, PhD, Point Guard University

Miller is the reason every NBA fan needs to invest in DVR — and not even because of the lob passes, long the best in the business, and propping up JaVale McGee's career for the last year. It is astonishing what Professor Miller can see in real time, with nine other guys darting around a crowded court.

He is always two steps ahead of opponents and teammates, in ways that are easy to miss on first watch. But when you slow down the tape, you can see Miller doing this kind of calculation: "If I pause mid-dribble, hesitate, and then take one extra dribble into the paint, Defender A will shift to Spot X, which allows Teammate B to get open in Spot Y, which in turn will draw Defender B, which in turn will free Teammate C who likely has no idea what is about to happen." It is like a perfect geometric proof during an NBA game.

Toss in one of the best little guy, ass-first post games, and I'm sold. Miller can't really defend anymore, and Denver has to hide him on the weakest offensive player at all times, but this list is about pure entertainment.

Miller is the ultimate Rick Majerus player. His game and the way he thinks about it are all traced back to Rick Majerus. Oh and here is a collection of 70 of Miller's 79 lob passes last year. I'm of the opinion that when Miller retires from the NBA there should be a standing offer for him as an assistant coach at Utah. I will hear no arguments against this. Anyone who says otherwise is simply wrong.

Also, one of my favorite Dre NBA moments is the Blake Griffin incident and his reaction to it.


http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/in...iller_ups.html (http://www.oregonlive.com/blazers/index.ssf/2010/12/trail_blazers_andre_miller_ups.html)


“There was no consideration for what I’ve accomplished in this league,” Miller said. “(There is) favoritism towards the young players. I delivered a shot. And when I delivered it, I was hoping the ref would call a flagrant foul or a foul. They ignored what he did two times. Two times. And I let it pass. The referee didn’t say nothing.

“If I was a dirty player that was looking to go out and hurt somebody, then I could understand. ‘Oh, this guy has a reputation for taking out guys.’ Back in the day, players like John Stockton — who was a tough-minded player and, actually, some players thought he was dirty — never got suspended for anything. The league has changed. They make the rules, they favor the young guys now. And that’s how it is.”

“I was shocked,” Miller said, about being suspended. “It’s a bunch of (bull) anyway. Especially knowing that I’ve worked hard to get to this point.



"I actually wanted to get him harder,'' Miller said afterward. "But he knew it was coming, because he got me good - actually a couple of times.''

Brian Johnson should have taught us that Great Player From Years Gone By doesn't automatically make Great Coach in Today's Game. And so much of Andre's game is based on feel, instinct and experience -- things that really can't be taught -- I think he'd be a horrible coach at the college level. You need to be a Basketball Jedi to get on Andre's level and today's guards just can't commit themselves to that kind of game. It would all end up with Andre pulling his hair out or bashing his skull against a wall. Not worth it.

I agree. I love Andre like a brother, but I think he'd be a terrible coach. Soft spoken, a little bit aloof, a very unique skill set--I think he'd flop harder than Mr. Blume at his son's birthday party.

Yes, ask BYU how former star players do as coaches. Doman, Cahoon, Bosco, and that's just the start. Even Max Hall was around for bit, I think.

I do think having Andre around the program a lot is a good idea. I'm sure Kodiak will reach out to him.

[mpfunk]

I disagree with all of you questioning Andre Miller. Everyone you compared him to didn't add to their great college career a fantastic professional career learning from great coaches.

Brian Johnson is a terrible comparison for Miller as is Doman, Bosco, Cahoon, and Max Hall. None of these players brought with them the credibility of a long professional career.

Also, remember that Miller was a big part of getting Drisdom, Markson, and Cheney committed to Utah. I don't doubt that he can occasionally put aside being an angry old man to recruit.

This is very true.

[OrangeUte]

Do we really know anything about what Andre Miller would be like as a coach? He is calm and patient, but I have seen him fired up during games, and he has obviously got an intensity. Plus, playing more than a decade in the NBA must result in a lot of confidence when it comes to basketball.

That being said, I know nothing about what Andre Miller would be like as a coach. I don't even know if you wants to be a coach. But, if he does, I hope he is patient and willing to put in years of work as an assistant learning how to coach.

[Applejack]

Good stuff on Andre Miller in Zac Lowe's latest (if you don't care about the NBA or the Nuggets, scroll to the middle of the article): http://www.grantland.com/story/_/id/10112652/the-denver-nuggets-trying-build-contender-not-bottoming-heading-lottery
(http://www.grantland.com/story/_/id/10112652/the-denver-nuggets-trying-build-contender-not-bottoming-heading-lottery)
He also adds this awesome footnote:
Seriously: Professor Miller is the best. He can't guard anyone anymore, but he remains just delightful to watch. And he's such a black sheep on this Denver team. Denver players have replaced the traditional nameplates over individual lockers with slips of paper carrying a player's nickname — "Manimal" for Faried, etc. Some of them are inside jokes I couldn't decipher. Every single player has a nickname above his locker, except for Miller, whose slip of paper simply reads "Miller." During a recent visit to Brooklyn, McGee had commandeered one corner of the locker room and was blasting rap music. A couple of players rapped along with him, a few more joked around, and others tended to ticket requests. Miller lay on the floor, stretching, wearing headphones, and enjoying some FaceTime with friends or family.

Actively, there really isn't one. Johnny Dawkins and Fred Hoiberg (Iowa State) probably have the best combined NBA career/NCAA job among active coaches. They'd easily be passed up by Reggie Theus if he could nail an interview. And Danny Manning would blow them all away if he can make Tulsa a winner.

A very flattering write-up on Grantland: http://grantland.com/features/andre-miller-washington-wizards-career/


“You were guaranteed at least two easy baskets every game,” said Alex Jensen, one of Miller’s teammates at Utah. “I never played with a better passer. It’s not just the lobs or if you run a cut and in that split second, he always had it there. Even if he was just passing it to you for a wide-open jump shot, the pass was on time, in the right spot.”
“You get spoiled by it because you don’t realize it’s exceptional until you play without him,” said Michael Doleac, another teammate. “When I was at Utah, I was learning to play the game. I didn’t know any better. When I started playing away from Andre, I started to realize.”

Nice article. I got to know Andre during his freshman year when he was studying to pass the ACT. Great kid then. Great guy now.

[SoCalPat]

Nice article. I got to know Andre during his freshman year when he was studying to pass the ACT. Great kid then. Great guy now.

I had a discussion recently with someone who believed Andre should be in the HOF because of his lofty assist totals. That's just as absurd for saying Mark Eaton should be in the HOF for his blocks, or Jason Terry for his 3-pointers. You gotta have more than just that, and Andre doesn't have it. He's never been an All-Star, never made an all-NBA team. He's led the league in assists. Once. And until this year, he'd never been out of the first round of the playoffs. This person tried liking Miller's career numbers to Steve Nash's, but Nash was a two-time MVP.

But damn ... Andre Miller is a HOF'er in so many other things. A teammate. A leader. Humility. Perspective. Thoughtfulness. Professionalism. The NBA would be boring beyond hope if everyone was Andre Miller, and I think even Andre would agree. But when you're one of a kind, your specialness really shines. Is that enough to elevate the discussion on his career? His impact? I don't know, Andre doesn't care and for Utes fans, it's probably better that way. It's our little secret, and like Andre refuses to promote himself, we really don't need to say much about it to the masses. Amongst Ute fans, Andre's legend is secure.

He is truly one of a kind, just like Magic, MJ, Bird and LeBron. He's not of their talent, but I think it's safe to say there will never be another Andre Miller.

I agree that he doesn't belong in the HoF, not by a longshot. I'll always wonder what may have happened if he had landed with a championship caliber team (win a couple rings as the 3rd best guy on a team with Durrant or LeBron and the whole narrative changes), but he has to share a little of the blame for that as well.

I absolutely love the way a lot of the basketball diehards like Zach Lowe gush about "Professor Miller".

[Applejack]

One more for good measure. This one is my favorite one of the year. It is classic Dre - he completely directs the action and he stops and restarts the play based on the Celtic big man (is that Jared Sullinger) facing the wrong way; once Dre sees this, he motions for a down screen but his intention the entire time is to the throw the lob to Kevin Serraphin. In fact, he does it before Serraphin even breaks off his screen. Beautiful.

Sounds like the poor guy is heading to Sacramento in exchange for Ramon Sessions. That's too bad, I loved having him here.

[Utebiquitous]

This is actually a good move for Andre - probably lengthens his career if he wants it too. George Karl loves him. He's grabbing Andre to be a leader in the locker room and help the players understand his system. Andre's minutes have fallen dramatically this season and rightfully so given Wall's production. The King's have made a good hire. If Karl can get Cousins to be just a little less of a jackass they'll start turning some things around.

I agree this is good for Miller. Karl is a true believer in the abilities of Andre Miller. I could absolutely see him re-signing with the Kings after this season.

[UBlender]

I think this signifies the end for Andre as a relevant player. A playoff team just sent him away in favor a Ramon Sessions, who is a total retread in the NBA. Andre will hopefully play a little more in Sacto and enjoy the rest of this season and maybe even next season as a positive influence on a floundering team, but he's done as a difference-maker on the court.

He was great to have here as a mentor to John Wall and someone who provided great veteran leadership. Sadly, the Wiz needed a shakeup, maybe this was it.

[mpfunk]

This has been a good trade for Miller. It is early, but his production and mpg are both up with Sacramento. Miller already is saying he wants to re-sign with the Kings. Dre is one of George Karl's favorite players and I expect him to keep playing over 20 mpg and I can absolutely see him continuing to play around 15+ mpg next year with the Kings.

I also think it is a great fit as he can transition right from playing to an assistant for George Karl when he is done playing.

I didn't know Andre had a kid. I never thought about it. I wonder how old he is. Has Larry sent him any letters yet? We need to get on that!

EDIT:
From this article (https://www.washingtonpost.com/sports/wizards/andre-miller-returns-to-denver-with-wizards-after-ugly-divorce-from-nuggets/2014/03/22/09c68c34-b14c-11e3-95e8-39bef8e9a48b_story.html) dated March 2014:



Now that his 14-year-old son, Duane, is at an age when he can fully understand and question what’s going on around him, Andre Miller said he feels more of an obligation to set a good example.

Ok, now I've gone "full creeper" mode. LOL.
