Darius Miles was once thought of as the next Kevin Garnett. And now he will have the chance to play alongside KG.

Said Miles (no, really), [...]

First off thanks to reader Georgia for the Fan Post (see below) that gave me the heads up on this signing . I remember the C's worked Miles out earlier this summer, but I didn't really think it would go anywhere. And lo and behold it happened. Some thoughts on the deal. 1. My first thought? Blazers fans are not going to like this. Remember when Miles was waived the following came to light:  ...

Jeff says: Miles has always been a question mark. Early on he was just an athletic dunker who didn’t really know how to play basketball. But as his career progressed, he kept showing stretches of occasional brilliance. He was still raw and not yet developed, yet for 10 or 15 minutes here and there Miles [...]

Darius the NefariousCan Danny?
I've been all over the map when it comes to Darius Miles. When he was on the Clippers, I was a big fan, rejoicing in the odd headbumps that he and Quentin Richardson would do. A few years later, I thought he became slightly overpaid and seemed like only a mediocre player. He proved me wrong by becoming an absolute disaster off-the-court and combining with Zach Randolph to be one of the ...
