Y'all really mad cuz this dude brought a gun to a gun fight? I thought we loved guns.

Gun fight as in--Darius Miles was mad a woman rejected him so he called up Miller to come bring his gun to him outside a night club and shot her multiple times, then yes, a gun fight.

Like, everyone is all strongly against the actions of guys like Ja, Pacman, Rice, etc. in the past and somehow we're just like looking the other way here?  I just just don't understand.  And it's not unwarranted in looking at him as a prospect.  You're drafting the person as much as the talent.

The interviews will be huge for Miller.  Hopefully there is genuine remorse and maturation on his side.  Bringing a gun to a teammate is a bad decision, but the two people directly involved in the death of this person are being punished as they should.

Everything  I've read contrary to some reports say just that. Wow said he has been pleasant and so forth. I'll say this much, I consider myself a humble and respectful  man. I would hope that nobody judged me by a hiccup at 18 years old. If someone has a pattern of bad behavior, I understand  and I'm sure the front office will do the homework.

Here is a good interview about him being a cooperative witness and expressing remorse for the woman who lost her life over everything else.  He talks about how he handled the boos and negative publicity through the whole incident.  Seems to be saying the right things, but teams will need to deep dive on him.

And what does Miller have to do with shooting her?

 

What someone else does with the gun is their problem. Miller simply brought him his gun he asked for. For all we know he probably thought his friend needed protection. 

 

Then you factor his age this kid is 20 years old. He has no idea what the hell is going on. Maybe he thought his friend was in danger of his life. In that situation you bring your friend his protection. Im not saying that's what happened but I feel blaming Miller in this situation is just flat out not fair.

Bro we all know what happened off the court.

 

We trying to discuss basketball and all you want to focus on is Brandon Miller and a gun.

 

He was cleared by the police. Not sure why you still trying to discuss this issue.

You don’t have to respond to me. I’m explaining myself clearly and if you disagree, that’s fine don’t try to dictate what we can be said. A person’s character is intrinsically tied to them in all facets of life “bro”

I've seen much worse than a 20 year old bringing his friend his gun.lmao

 

This is hilarious that you think he is a criminal. But go ahead and go off "bro"

Wait when did Miller become Ja, Pacman, Rice?

 

He has nothing on his record to suggest he's that kind of human. 

 

Are you one of those cancel culture people from social media?

[CamWhoaaCam]

 

Interview seems pretty decent to me. He does look a little nervous at times.

 

I like when they asked him what separates him from Scoot he immediately says "defense" him being versatile with his length he can be a factor even when his shot isn't falling. I like that mindset.

Miller can get fuged. The bullshit with the gun did it for me but then he is invisible in the tournament. Can't have that with a team of guys who can't win a play-in game. He's not an alpha and if he's a Paul George? That sucks because George is an empty All-Star. Does nothing for us.

Scoot has the mentality this team is severely lacking. It's not even a debate.
