Re: thank You Reggie!
I really wish Reggie would consider atleast being a sixth man next year. I really wish they could of competed with Artest even if we would lose because of it. Especially when you also remember the heartbreakers against the Bulls. Reggie was certainly convincing about his plans to retire, it's just a damn shame they had to have such a rough year. But I like that he is sure of retiring in that he saw what was coming and made the most of it. I think he accepts that you don't always get a fair shake in basketball and all that really matters is what you do with what you have--just because the outside circumstances weren't right for a championship doesn't diminish you or really leave anything lacking, even though it sure would of been nice. Ring or not Reggie stands as tall as those who won one. It's hard to sum up all my thoughts other than with gigantic understatements... This was sad and Indiana just won't be the same.

Re: thank You Reggie!
This feels too weird. I liked Reggie but I never gave him his due before this, since Indiana isn't my team. I think a lot of people like me didn't realize what they had with him until it's gone.

Re: thank You Reggie!
Reggie will always be one of my favorite players of all time. He was a big reason why I started to like the Pacers to begin with. Sucks we couldn't get him a ring
And as much as I despise the Pistons - that was one classy move of them to applaud Reg as he left the floor.

Re: thank You Reggie!

in the 90's i was a big bulls fan so naturaly i hated reggie cuz he was...... - himself, reggie miller! i cant forget how he pushed mj and nailed that 3 pointer, all the problems and the hard life he made to the bulls.
BUT

Re: thank You Reggie!
I remember back in 1993 when I was subscribed to Sports Illustrated for Kids. I drew a picture for the Fan Art section of Reggie. They actually put it in the next issue. Was always one of my favorites. I super miss Reggie already.

Re: thank You Reggie!
As odd is it may sound, this has been one of the hardest days of my life. I know everyone here says they will miss Reggie...but Reggie was so much more to me than just a basketball player. He was the reason when I was younger that I fell in love with basketball. He was the reason I turned my life around and he is just such a huge part of who I am today as a man. Growing up, I wasn't known as Shawn Flynn...I was known as 'Reggie.' Everywhere I go...every where I play ball or anything...I am known as 'Reggie.' Reggie Miller was more to me than anyone could ever possible imagine. I don't know what Im gonna do not being able to watch him now...I really don't. I do promise this though, as long as I am playing basketball...whoever is on the same court as me will remember who Reggie Miller is.
I cried last night Reggie....I'm going to miss you beyond belief.
