Nugz Fans: What's Up With Miller?
3.8 assists per game? Sure, he's scoring more, but what's the deal with him playing SG when his strong-suit is distributing?
The scary thing is, he says he loves playing in the wing. Personally, I think he just needs to stay at the PG, score occasionally and pass more.

Boykins has earned his mins at the point... Although... I'm not a fan of Dre playing the 2... There's really no other option that's worked.

As long as Lenard doesn't make his shots and White doesn't play, I think it is one of the best alternatives for Denver to play Boykins and Miller together at the Guard positions.
A quote from Miller about his assist numbers from rockymountainnews.com: "Our roles, we want to be passers, but, at times, we've got to get points on the board in order to win."

I was wondering one of somebody was going to blame his play on being on the Clipps... No offense... But... Dre was showing a decline in his overall game before he came to the Clipps... It was just exposed while playing in the West... He has no J... And his dribble is suspect as hell... No sour grape's, on my part though... He's a LA ****, and I'll alway's support him... Plus... The Clipps are doing great without all the so called can't miss talent(Odom..Kandi and Dre) from year's past... Guess it worked out for everybody involved.

Oh no, you guys had to get rid of Odom. I think you guys have alot of good young talent, just an owner who is not too well thought of.

I was ranting a bit... Sterling is still the biggest head case in the organization... But... He did sign Dunleavy and Brand and Maggs... I'll reserve my judgement on him till the offseason, when Q's due a contract.
Edit.. My bad Nuggz fan's... Dre Miller isn't really doing that bad... I'm sure you all know that though... I've followed him since he was drafted by the Cavs... I prob set my expectation's to high for him in the first place... Either way... I think Rashidi and MOP summed it up... Lenard's not the answer at the 2... If that mean's running a two point backcourt then so be it... It seem's to be working.

Miller took the comments that he should shoot more, and ran with them. That's kind of his downfall in LA....Lenard is a gunner off the bench..shouldn't be expected to do anything else...Boykins has the skills start, but I'm almost positive he'll wear down..If he was just at least 5'9.....
