What would Darius Miles career have looked like?

[jamal99]

Exactly why I said "IF HE DID"

I was infuriated when the Cavs traded him away for Jeff McGinnis

If Darius Miles had a three ball like Novak, he woulda been filthy.

Add MJ's determination and he would have a case for GOAT

Very poor man's KG, but as an SF.

I have a DVD of Darius Miles highlights that's like 2 hours long. It's pretty awesome.

Don't upload that anywhere or anything...

I think Miles would have had a similar career as Maggette if he stayed healthy. Really athletic, but horrible jumper and really bad basketball career. I gotta say, D Miles in 01-02 was extremely fun to watch and made me a part of the Clippers fanbase.

I don't think there is an NBA comparison really. He was a 6'9 SF who could outrun and outjump almost all players in the NBA. I would think something like a Odom/KG type mix but his ballhandling, speed and athleticism was superior to both. He had absolutely no shot though. Pretty much a slashing scorer with the ballhandling, passing of an Odom/KG type forward.

He'd be a darker Tayshaun Prince

you guys are way overrating darius miles. other than having above average athleticism he couldnt do jack shit. he had no handles, no shot, nothing.

Huh? Dude was a pretty talented defender who would have likely become a very good one. He was a one man fastbreak who actually was a great ballhandler for his size.

What Darius Miles did you watch?

Maybe I should direct that question to you guys . You're arguing with a CLIPPERS fan who just so happens to be talking about his favorite player at the time and watched his entire career from the time he was drafted. Darius Miles had an incredible skill set and versatility. Problem is he had a brain the size of a walnut, a poor work ethic, off the court issues and what was thought to be a career ending injury.

I saw those. You did a great job as always. Set these guys straight who said he was nothing but an athlete. Dude's ability to lead a break with his ballhandling and to have the court vision to find players was great for a raw, 6'9 SF.

He wasn't polished, but he definitely had skills. Had he put in work to refine those skills he would've been incredible.
