How Good Was Reggie Miller Actually?

[CHICAGO]

Okay lets take the year they went 7 games with the bulls

19.5/2.3/2.9



CJ/Brad Beal/ Klay Thompson

Oh and don't go to TS%....You just making the case that Lebron is better than MJ Especially with MJ never taking 3's to bring down his FG% Bron Bron would be shooting 63% from FG playing like MJ

BRON HAD ONE 60% TS SEASON
IN HIS 1ST 8 YRS
BEFORE HE STARTED FORMING SUPER TEAMS.

Reggie Miller led his team and played the most minutes during that series. Every player you mentioned(CJ,Klay,Beal) in relation is a sidekick and in the case of Klay, a 3rd option

I know your a troll but Incase another font seriously tries to use this argument, just putting this out there.

If you the main option on your squad and playing the most minutes and can only muster 20 ppg, that's not a good look.

I'd take hime over Carmello and TMac. Dude was a competitor. Amd he he getsvpoints for bodyslammin Tobe

I'm 37 and grew up in Chicagoland in the 90s, I watched that nikka play plenty and he was far from a legend. He had a great series against the Knikks that he parlayed into a reputation as a big time player. Didn't really do shyt until the Bulls dynasty was done. That one Finals he made, the Lakers stomped his ass out.

Dude was basically Kevin Martin, Brad Beal status....a very good SG who could score without monopolizing the ball. What's the most he ever scored....22 ppg...as a #1 option.

Very good player who had some great moments but at the end of the day he was never GREAT. He probably the only NBA player whose sister is better than him

Did anybody besides the Rockets do anything during the Bulls run?are we also forgetting Reggie was a allstar who collected a lot of the scoring load? You mention the 00s finals as if Shaq didn’t average damn near 40 on 60%even that series,Reggie at 36 was the leading scorer for the pacers. His second best player was Jalen Rose who purposely injured Kobe simply put. Reggie was a legend who had the misfortune of playing against two dynasties far stronger than the pacers in the Bulls than the Lakers at the start of their 3 Peat who went to 4 finals in 5 years.

 

[Tom Foolery]

He fathered a lot of nikkas playing style. Check any Larry Brown team and you will see shades of Miller's work.

YOURE A DUMB fukk
POSTING CAREER NUMBERS OF A 18 YR PLAYER
WHO PLAYED UNTIL 39
INSTEAD OF HIS PRIME.

HOW MANY 20 PER SEASONS THOSE GUYS HAVE?
HOW MANY 60 TS% SEASONS?

SIT THE fukk DOWN SOMEWHERE.

For real. I hate these wikipedia nikkas.

 

[Jordan>>LeFrozen]

If you the main option on your squad and playing the most minutes and can only muster 20 ppg, that's not a good look.

Mark price was one of the main options for the Cavs and averaged 18.9 in the late 80sthat team finished second and made the playoffs.

 

[Trot LaRoc]

Sorry dude aint no fukkn legend. He paved the way for nikkas to score without having good dribbles...I'll give him that. He fathered Ray Allen, Rip Hamilton, etc

Miller was a damn good player but I refuse to say he was great.

LMAO WHAT

Don't even start with the Jordan/Lebron shyt when it comes to efficiency and TS%

What superteam Bron got now?ZO, B.I, KUZMA

What superteam Bron had his last year in Cleveland. Jose Calderon, TT, Injuried Love, Swish?

Bron blows Jordan out the water. It's okay breh. Jordan was playing on a team that could win 55 games without him. Bron plays on teams that win 50 games with him. How hard is it to go 6/6 like that

What Jordan was his last 3 rings ain't even better than Bron is now but of course he won with the amount of help he had and facing 2 all stars at a time when it comes to the finals. Man Jordan was winning chips going 5/19 in a close out game against the sonics to win FMVP
Bron dropping 51 and getting swept

That's all you need to know when it comes to competition and finals competition

 

[Rice N Beans]

Bird's coaching was the real gem IMO. Coached them well with Miller as a center piece.

 

[MostReal]

he was great and a playoff performer
Very charismatic player that made historic marks in the game

 

[Left.A1]

14 playoff appearances in 18 years

5 conference title appearances

1 finals appearance


Etc etc... The guy stayed around some winning and was usually the best player on all of squads.. Could take over an offense and do it efficiently ... Had a game that could have likely translated to any era or any other team during his era and still have impact... Absolutely One of the greats

Reggie was one of my favorite players to watch ever when he was hot. I can still distinctly remember three different Reggie games against the Knicks I saw in real time (25 in the 4th, 10 in the last four minutes, and 8 points in 9 seconds) that were as fun as anything.

But he's still basically Klay with a somewhat inferior shot and far worse defense.

One of the best ever to play without the ball.

He had a punchable face but dude knew how to create his own shot better than a lot of players in the 90s. Think a faster, less likeable Steph Curry with less handles but the same quick shot release.

He wasn't faster than Steph, he had FAR less handles, worse passing, and his shot wasn't nearly as good.

Reggie had six 20-point per game seasons, and only 4 of those were before the age of 30.
Klay is just 28 and is already on his 5th 20-point per game season.

And Reggie TS% is inflated just because they called way more fouls in the 1990s and he was one of the biggest floppers in the league. He pretty much invented the art of flopping on jump shots. But by eFG% which only takes actual shots into account, he's no better.

Reggie: 54.4 eFG% (peak 57.2% in 1990 when the entire league was fast breaks half the time)
Klay: 54.7% eFG% (peak 58.5% last year)

 

[FS4LFE]

Glorified Joe Johnson with a signature moment versus the Knicks.

 

[Trot LaRoc]

I forgot that this nikka also was one of the 1st guy to constantly flop on jumpshots to get cheap fouls
