About Miller's article: In memory of Miller/U/1427112562 "Next, the shooting guard-"booed at the same time as the live commentary, "This is his last visit to Madison Garden-"The boos are getting louder and louder ",No.31. When Miller ran into the stadium from the player's aisle, the boos faded away and the audience stood up and applauded. This kind of cheer is full of hatred and respect for great opponents ... Just as punk is the most honest rock music and the most frank, wild and presumptuous interpretation of rock spirit, punk is a person who will not be changed. They don't care how the public knows themselves. They only need the public in one situation-when they put up their middle finger. If Iverson is an elf from hell, then Miller is more like a "devil" who dares to challenge God. As for the rebellious spirit in basketball, "the most frank, wild and presumptuous explanation", Miller is Iverson's predecessor. The latter's famous saying is: "I don't need to respect anyone, including Jordan!" Jordan might say, "I can respect anyone except Reggie. ? 6? 1 miller! "Since1February, 993 10, at the MSA Center in Indianapolis, in full view of more than16,000 spectators, Miller got a slap in the face from Jordan, and the contest between them lasted for ten years. Every time he visits the windy city, Miller will go all out to fight back Jordan's humiliation with constant scores. 1998 Eastern Conference Final was the last time Miller and Jordan met. In the playoffs, Miller finally ended their feud with his ghostly lore. He pushed Jordan away at the last minute of the sixth inning and made a fatal three-pointer. It can be said that in the 20th century, Miller has always been a painful but lingering thorn in Jordan's heart. He has deeply stung the flying people and made them still strangers. Perhaps the unfortunate childhood created Miller's unruly character. He comes from an athlete's family. His sister Shelley? 6? 1 miller was the main force of American women's basketball team that won the Olympic Games in 1984. Another sister Tammy is a volleyball player, and her brother Darrell? 6? 1 Miller is an outfielder for the California Angels baseball team. But when young Miller spoke his basketball dream word by word, others either mocked or sighed. There is a simple reason. Before he was five years old, he was just a child who could walk on scaffolding, but the stubborn miller never bowed to fate. Everyone is thinking about averaging 30 points and 40 points, but Rodman proved his greatness by rebounding in another way. Jumping high in the dense crowd, sending the ball to the basket in an incredible posture, followed by a loud cry-Miller's way of solving the problem is equally simple and different. Unable to fly to the basket, he practiced shooting day and night, proving that a long-distance pitcher can also go down in history. Miller has a burning soul in his thin body. He is not afraid to regard the whole world as an enemy. Although Jordan, an old enemy, is quite enjoyable, it is too lonely. After searching hard, the old punk chose Madison Garden in new york, which attracted worldwide attention, as the target of attack. So, Spike, a super fan of Knicks? 6? 1 Li became his other "enemy". 1994 in the fifth game of the eastern conference finals, the Knicks led 70-58 in the first three quarters. When Miller scored the first goal after the start of the fourth quarter, he said dismissively on the sidelines that it was just luck. But Miller hit three-pointers again and again, and he had to play with Spike every time? 6? 1 Li Dou had a war of words. Finally, Miller scored 25 points in the fourth quarter, leading the Pacers to turn defeat into victory. The second time was 1995, and the two teams met again in the Eastern Conference semifinals. With 18.7 seconds left in the first game, the Pacers were 6 points behind, but Miller scored 8 points in the last 8.9 seconds to lead the Pacers to make another comeback. As soon as the game was over, Miller rushed to Spike? 6? 1 Li, give him a good scolding. Every time the two teams meet, Miller and Lee will have a heated argument. In the face of new york's crazy home fans' arrogant neck-pinching action, it will definitely haunt every fan's mind. When this number stands outside the three-point line, time stops, leaving the final suspense in the game. Miller didn't miss the ball. In the 2002 World Championships, he passed the ball to another Miller (Andre? 6? 1 miller), which caused the dream team to lose in the international competition for the first time. This season, Miller still maintained a three-point shooting rate of more than 40%. On February 8 in Miami, he made five shots from outside the three-point line, and a last-minute three-pointer completely laid the foundation for the Pacers. On June 5th last year,165438+1October, he scored a season-high 3 1 point at Madison Garden, making 6 of 7 3-pointers and hitting the last 3-pointer 49 seconds before the end, resulting in the sudden death of the Knicks. As a pure shooter, he became a popular leader, which is rare in NBA. Tinsley said, "I have nothing to say to Reggie. This year, he mainly contributed to defense and gave others many opportunities, just for the championship ring, which we all owe him. " Xiao ao's attitude is simpler: "I will do anything as long as I can bring him a ring!" " " ? Even if the 38-year-old punk retires tomorrow, he will still be the most terrible assassin in the world today.
Magician Miller
Reggie miller learned to play basketball because he wanted to exercise his leg muscles. Because of his physical disadvantage, he couldn't beat his sister all the time, so he turned to practice three-pointers hard, hoping that long-range shots could beat her. It is this seemingly simple idea that makes Miller the greatest three-pointer in NBA history. Since entering the NBA, Miller hit 632 1 with a three-pointer and hit 2505, ranking first in NBA history.
The mention of Miller's three-pointer reminds people of "Miller moment", and the last few seconds of the game are often Miller's exclusive moment. 1995, the first game of the Eastern Conference semifinals, the opponent is the Knicks. In the last 8.9 seconds, Miller hit two consecutive three-pointers and scored eight points, helping the Pacers complete the most amazing turnaround in NBA history. 1998 in the fourth game of the eastern conference finals, under Jordan's personal defense, Miller hit a three-pointer with only 0.7 seconds left in the game, leading the Pacers to turn the tables.
After the announcement of retirement, the chances of seeing the "Miller moment" became rare. "This will be the last chance to play alongside Reggie," said coach Carlisle. "This will be the last chance for fans to enjoy Reggie's performance, which will add great significance to the rest of our season."
Big mouth miller
Miller's big mouth is famous in the NBA, and it is precisely because of his big mouth that he has had conflicts with many players, including Jordan and Kobe.
1993 February 10, Jordan and Miller clashed. Jordan thought Miller elbowed him on purpose, so he hit back. Miller was sent off at that time, but Jordan continued to play, which made Miller very angry. He thought it was Jordan's fault, and repeatedly accused Jordan of "acting too well" and "confusing the referee" after the game. In the end, Jordan was fined 1 ten thousand dollars.
The feud between Kobe and Miller began in 2002. When they met in Los Angeles, they had a big fight and both of them were banned. From then on, the two became strangers and never met again. The scene was very hot at that time. Kobe punched first, and Miller immediately fought back. The two men scuffled like hooligans and fell behind the scoreboard. Bryant said glibly, "He doesn't understand at all. I won't argue with fools. " Miller said coldly, "Kobe is still young, and he still has a lot to learn."
Empty-handed miller
There is only one NBA championship every year, but none of them are Miller's pacers. If Miller 18 season has any regrets, it is that he didn't bring a championship ring when he retired, which is his biggest regret.
Since 1987 joined the Pacers, Miller's closest to the championship was the NBA Finals with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2000. Although he averaged 24.3 points in six games, Miller had to walk into the lounge again in disappointment.
Miller, who was not favored by the championship, won the hearts of coaches, players and fans. "Although he has never won a championship, his career is brilliant." Carlisle, the current head coach of the Pacers, said, "He has always been committed to Indianapolis and is our role model."
The first "Miller moment" was born on1May 7, 995. It was the first game of the Eastern Conference semifinals, and the Pacers and Knicks were in full swing. At that time, the Pacers were 6 points behind the Knicks, with only 8.9 seconds left in the game. According to ordinary people, the pacers will die, but Miller broke this rule and hit a three-pointer first. Then he broke the Knicks' ball in his backcourt and quickly got it to the frontcourt to score again. At this time, the Pacers were surprised to draw the score to 105- 105. At this time, Miller forced the Knicks to foul, and he made two free throws to help the Pacers win their opponents by 2 points.
