Miller didn't get enough assists. This game proves he's a selfish, shoot first ball hog and not a true point guard. Also, now that we know Miller can score 50+, not only can we conclude he's a lazy bum for not doing it more often, but any game he scores less than 25 means he's being a passive aggressive jerk. Why did we sign Miller, anyway? Oh yeah, he also had two turnovers.
No doubt. I missed the game (shit shit shit) but the first thing I thought was how did Andre hit enough threes to go for 52 since it seemed inconceivable that he could do it without making a bunch of threes. Well...I guess he did! That's impressive.

I was at the Beaver game where Gary Payton scored 58 points against USC back in 1990. They were doubling him and then sending a third player to help from the week side when he got close to the basket, but they couldn't stop him. USC (and ex Washington State) Coach George Raveling said it was the single best performance he'd ever seen -- and it still is the best I've ever witnessed. From what I've read, I imagine Miller's night must have looked eerily similar in style and result.
If it's the one I'm thinking of, I think it was 64 points. Man it ticked me off. Toward the end, Barry's teammates were passing up breakaway layups to give him the ball so he could pad his points. I hated Barry. But I imitated his running half hook bank shot to great affect anyway.
I've been comparing Nico to George Gervin, with better defense. I guess there aren't that many here who are old enough to remember him. Thanks for posting the vids. I loved watching Gervin when I was a kid.
