Nervous Guy Posted May 20, 2005 Posted May 20, 2005 He was a great player who unfortunately never won a title, but he was as clutch as anyone could ever be. Sad to see him go. Props also to Larry Brown and the Pistons who showed a lot of class by calling that TO with a few seconds left so Reggie could get the standing O that he so truly deserved.

As a Knicks fan, it was fun to despise him back in the 90's, just like Jordan and the heat. Maybe Spike Lee will send him some red roses instead of black this time.

I noticed old helmet styles and new ones... All AFC? ???

IDBillzFan Posted May 20, 2005 Posted May 20, 2005 Forgive my basketball naivete, however was Reggie Miller not the college kid who, in his last game, called an ill-advised timeout that cost them the game? I only ask because if it's the same guy, I find it hard to believe 19 years has passed me that fast.

Nervous Guy Posted May 20, 2005 Author Posted May 20, 2005 Thank God. I'd hate to think 19 years passed me by THAT freakin' quickly. 341222[/snapback] nah...only 12 or 13 years...
#41 Posted May 20, 2005 Posted May 20, 2005 That starting 5 @ Michigan during that time was pretty sick. Ray Jackson, Jimmy King, Jalen Rose, Juwan Howard and creaky knees Webber.
Golden Wheels Posted May 20, 2005 Posted May 20, 2005 THE PACERS LOST????? Awwwww.........what a shame
BillsFan Trapped in Pats Land Posted May 20, 2005 Posted May 20, 2005 THE PACERS LOST????? Awwwww.........what a shame 341325[/snapback] He should win an Oscar. A championship, nope.
Buftex Posted May 20, 2005 Posted May 20, 2005 I loved Reggie! IMO, Jordan, Bird and Miller were about as clutch as any NBA players could be. I know he wasn't the complete all around player that Jordan was, but man, he had a flare for the dramatics. Love him or hate him, he was a big game player...what he did to the Knicks, in the 1990's puts him on my all-time NBA team. Kind of like Elway or Favre in the NFL. A lot of people hated/or continue to hate these guys, but you gotta admitt, the game misses them when they are gone. As a longtime Celtics fan, I have always loved players like Reggie, guys who could tear the other teams heart out, just by being smarter than the other guys. Props to Reggie Miller! Now, maybe we won't have to see as much of his sister on telecasts!
gantrules Posted May 20, 2005 Posted May 20, 2005 Not a big basketball fan but Reggie is the Ernie Banks of this era. Guy deserves every bit to have a ring.
Green Bay Bills Posted May 20, 2005 Posted May 20, 2005 As Knicks fans, we still called him Cheryl until the end. But, in our hearts we knew he was a great player, despite the constant flopping.
ExiledInIllinois Posted May 20, 2005 Posted May 20, 2005 He did have the "smarts" to pull the headset of RA while RA was attempting to give a live game/brawl interview!
Justice Posted May 21, 2005 Posted May 21, 2005 Reggie Miller was great. Best 3 point shooter of all time.
