Andre Miller on BFT

[PapaG]

No, I was blaming Miller for it, if you read my post. I fully agree that Miller was the man who built the rosters around himself in Cleveland, LA, Denver and Phildelphia.

I was just pointing out that here, in Portland, he won't be responsible for building the roster around himself. Portland has Pritchard do that. So, he'll just be responsible for playing point guard, which he's proven to be good at!

I'd never hire him to be the GM for my franchise. Guy couldn't build a playoff winner in any of his stops. What was he thinking, putting together that crazy mish-mash in LA?

You agree with something I never posted, and ridicule isn't exactly an argument. Whatever. You're losing control of this place for no reason.

Go play 4-square in Imaginary Trade Land. That rocks.

If Miller didn't build those teams, why is his playoff legacy relevant?

No. I am causing all the riots that are happening in this place for a very important reason.

Fair enough. Then no player is ever to fully credit for a title. Michael Jordan doesn't have 6 titles; Jerry Krause does, and Jordan was lucky he didn't have Miller's GMs.

Jerry Krause is the greatest player of all time.

Since you're kind of a "GM", I suppose you are causing it.

Full credit? Nope. No player wins games or titles alone.

Jerry Krause is the greatest player of all time.

No, he was a pretty good GM. Inherited Jordan, but added Pippen, Grant, Rodman, Harper and a lot of the various complementary pieces. One doesn't have to be a player to contribute.

On the face of things, he appears to be a guy who doesn't work when he doesn't have to (summer) has never fit in on a team enough to make them want to keep him, doesn't care much about winning as long as he gets paid, but seems quite intelligent and well-spoken.

No way he takes the starting spot from one of the hardest working PG's in the league (Blake) who's probably going full speed on a court in 90 degree weather as I post this.

Or Odom to the Lakers. Or Buck Williams to the Blazers.

There are a thousand examples of good players not winning big until they came to a good team.

Ed O.

Yeah, JR Rider for example.
