Basketball: Reggie Miller
Man, I missed that 30 in 30 ESPN broadcast about him!
Was there ever anyone who was as cool as The Iceman on the court?
I would kill for that nickname. I think I'm gonna start calling myself that in the hopes that it catches on.
Go ahead. You're due for a name change anyway.
Name 'em!This is NOT a "Who's the greatest" thread.It could just be an athlete whose game/personality you really liked, even if he/she wasn't the greatest.One of mine:SCOTTIE PIPPENHe wasn't the best scorer.He wasn't the best defender.He wasn't the best passer.He wasn't the BEST anything actually....But he was exceptional at EVERYTHING!He practically invented the Point Forward role that Lebron James is operating in.He was a great ball handler, great passer, one of the league's best defenders, an excellent rebounder, and a talented scorer (dude once went 19-27, for 47pts).When Jordan retired all Scottie did was lead the Bulls in Points, Steals, and Assists, and he was second on the team in Rebounds. He was the MVP of the All-Star game that year too. The Bulls had 55 wins that year and went to the Eastern Conference Finals.Wow.The next season Jordan returned towards the end of the season. That year Scottie led the Bulls in scoring (21.4 ppg), rebounding (8.1 rpg), assists (5.2 apg), steals (2.94 per game and first in NBA), and blocked shots (1.13 per game). Yes, he led them in five different categories.Because he played with MJ he may never get his due. That's ok. I see u Scottie.
