Brad Miller Toked a Bad Bad Thing (Three Times)
SPORTSbyBROOKS —
... up.) Brad Miller is happy Miller immediately apologized profusely, including the following: “I made a mistake. It was an error in judgment and I’m very sorry.” Brad, honey? You made three mistakes, minimum. We appreciate your forthrightness, but candor would also help. That right there? That’s a pattern. Of course, the league doesn’t tell anyone officially that Miller tasted herb thrice, but the NBA shrewdly arranged the punishments for each offense under the Anti-Drug Program to make it bloody obvious what he did . ...
On Pot and Race in the NBA
The Sporting Blog —
[image] Not to bring up race and drugs in one post, but when Brad Miller gets suspended for his his third weed offense and no one really cares, it's time we ask those tough questions again. Namely, white dude with an affinity for guns and hunting suffers the perils of addiction in silence, and gets caught a third time. Now, what about the Josh Howard incident, where dude simply acknowledged that he likes to puff on occasion. I don't mean to raise any hackles here, but Miller's career has had some serious ups and downs. Howard's, with the exception of 2007-08's troubled ...
Dude, wait. What? Brad Federline suspended by NBA?
Fear The Beard —
... K-Fed resemblin’ Miller barely managed to raise an eyebrow with his getting suspended for the first five games of the season outside of Sactown? Sure, there was the obligatory press conference, replete with standard-issue forced apology and (presumably) contrite staring at the mic stand. But where was the media outrage that was heaped on Josh Howard just a few short weeks ago just for saying that he likes to smoke during the off season? There are lots of comments on Ziller’s blog, but that’s about it. ...

... there are a lot of solid guys to support me in those cats in later rounds. While I did have to look long and hard at guys like LaMarcus Aldridge and Brad Miller, I decided there were good options for boards/blocks/FG still coming to me. Also, both guys have at least some seblance of risk associated with them. Aldridge has to share the floor and the ball with Greg Oden, while Miller is getting older, has a recent history of injuries, and will be suspended for five games to start the season. And anyway, if Miller's trey per game was going to ...
Tonight's Game: Sacramento Kings vs. Orlando Magic
Third Quarter Collapse —
... Indeed, the talent gap between the Magic and their opponent is wide, which should bode well for them. But they had the talent edge in the last two games and came up empty on both occasions. I think the third time will be the charm for Orlando tonight. Second-year center Spencer Hawes, starting for the suspended veteran Brad Miller, has played solidly on offense so far, but is a sieve on defense. Dwight Howard should have a field day on both ends of the floor; defensively, he'll check veteran forward Mikki Moore, who is only a threat on offensive rebounds and ...
