On a side note I am not betraying Miami even if I become a Celtics fan, but I stated clear in the past that I am more of a players fan than a particular team fan. Arison and Rile are great but my Heat fandom started with Wade and to this date. Just means I will be rooting hard for any team that drafts Wiggins. It also doesn't mean I will forever stay a said player's fan. Heck, I used to be a Kobe fan but he gradually lost me after realization kicked in.

I know. Same for me, just LeBron instead of Wade. But you are not from Miami, nor am I which was the point. Look at sauru, the guy will stay a Celtic forever mainly because it's his city. And that's how fandom works, you either are a guy of that city or you have been following a particular player or just the tradition of players. It's a betrayal if you are from Boston or Chicago & don't root for Celtics or Bulls. As for fandom, I will now partly root for the team that gets Miller :D


BTW, @Jerkoff, I will save that one for later ;)

I'm not happy with it. I don't know why he picked Griz over OKC. Anyway, wishing him the best of luck.

Of course he would since he just signed with them.

Only an idiot will say 'I signed with the team because it's close to my home even though the Thunder has the better team.

Miller ultimately couldn't resist the chance to return for a second stint in Memphis, where he has kept a home since playing for the Grizzlies

Miller's has back problems, will probably need/have surgery at some point.
It's better to sign with the team that's close to home where while recovering you can be with the team and the family.

it would be funny if someone signed with a team and said "i only signed here cause i know there is no real expectations of winning so i can just ride out my career collecting an easy pay check"

Well, that's what strikes me as odd. Why he signed in the first place. Recovery at home>Run at a championship, I guess.

But wish him best of luck anyways. I would have really liked if he joined OKC but it's cool.

It's more about the comfort of being close to your family and workplace at this point in your career > championship since he already has 2 of it.

It's not odd. Miller already has achieved two of the goals of most NBA players, getting good pay and winning a championship and he already did that last one twice. It's not hard to understand that he wants the most comfortable situation for him now that his body is breaking down that might end his NBA career.

Ya, I guess he is all in the "chill Hawaii" phase now.

But I shouldn't really be understating Memphis like this. If Miller is healthy, Randolph & Marc play like they played last season and there are some breaks, they just might make it to the finals.

Best thing is he might get a place on the starting 5.

Yeah you are anus tasting you asshat Stress Facture, why you talk like you know anything? You are cracka-lacking cracker LOL but funny thanks for the lulz!!

Miller is amazing shooting guy he will take all of his good experience and become starter now in the Memphis city because he well rested from last year. Our Miami has so much deepness on the bench that he didnt get a chance but now he is miracle with his recovery and will just start in Memphis. It a shame he not sign with OKC but who knows they have Marc & Randolph and Miller now so if they plays well they get to the finals and then Miami will sweep them LOL!!

Great signing for the Grizzlies. Griz are considered 2nd tier ring contender behind OKC, SAS, or even LAC but Miller definitely upgrades them.

Certainly a solid pickup for the Grizzlies if he's able to withstand a couple more seasons, playing any kind of significant minutes. As I said before, the Heat's depth allowed him to play somewhat sparingly during the course of the season, even when he was in the starting lineup, most likely leaving him notably fresher and less beaten up than most come the postseason.

The fan fury would be something to behold, but you'd have to admire the candour.

So, Heat have put Jones back into the rotation as a "replacement". Good for him.

Anyone want to make guesstimation about how many starting minutes Mike Miller plays? He are so good I think around 40 is good, what you think?
