 Breaking Down Darius Miles  Links7
Assuming Darius Miles makes the team, the Celtics are looking at guy that can fill up the stat sheet in a hurry. He could be that scoring spark the team needs off the bench, something they really didn’t even have in James Posey. The possibilities are endless with a healthy and disciplined Miles. Ainge told the Globe, “He’s healthy and has a great attitude. He’s ready to resurrect his career.” [link]

    I guess because Boston is a huge market you all feel the need to write about Darius Miles?

    It's a well researched and written article except for the fact that about half of those "goods" listed are not "good".  They point out how big of a dipshit he is and always will be.

    There should be a bullet on the fact that he had microfracture surgery, didn't rehab it for months, gained about 45 lbs, and then attended strips clubs on a nightly basis for 1.5 years.

Comprehensive Guide To Darius Miles

I know a lot of people didn't follow Darius Miles too closely when he wasn't a Celtic. I know I didn't. Like many I just lumped him into the Jailblazer image.
