"Game 1 we felt threatened, we came out with a sense of urgency. Game 2 we maybe didn't feel as threatened and the sense of urgency wasn't there. I think you're allowed one of those a series. We've had our one, now it's time to lock in for the remainder of the series."And for the Warriors that starts on the defensive end against Chris Paul, James Harden and Co., because when they get stops it allows Golden State to...

G Andre Miller endured a scary moment early in the fourth quarter when he hit the ground hard after getting fouled by center JaVale McGee. Miller landed hard on his back with 10:06 remaining and remained on the court for a few minutes before eventually getting up and walking to the bench on his own power. Miller stayed in the game and hit the ensuing free throw.

Miller scored seven points in 19 minutes with four assists in Monday's preseason loss to Toronto.
Miller missed Minnesota's last preseason game as he was away from the team for a personal issue. Miller doesn't need much time in the preseason to get ready for the regular season, so he may sit out most exhibition games. He'll likely begin the season as Minnesota's backup point guard and could see significant minutes early in the season as Ricky Rubio returns from last season's ankle injury.

Miller (personal) rejoined the team Monday in Toronto and participated in shootaround, Jerry Zgoda of the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.
Miller left the team over the weekend for an unspecified reason, but his presence at shootaround Monday likely indicates the issue has been resolved. Given his age (39) and the available bodies at point guard, Miller seems set to serve as a leader more off the court than on it this season.

Miller is away from the team for personal reasons and won't play in Saturday's preseason game.
He probably needs the preseason reps less than any other member of the T-Wolves' backcourt, and all indications are that he will be ready to go for the start of the regular season.
Wed Jul 29 201519:05Miller agreed to deal with Timberwolves on Wednesday
Miller agreed to a deal with the Timberwolves on Wednesday, Shams Charania of RealGM reports.
Miller brings a veteran presence to a very young Minnesota backcourt, and he was likely brought in to serve as just that. At 39 years old, Miller is not the efficient floor leader he once was, and with guys like Ricky Rubio, Tyus Jones and Zach LaVine all having the capability of playing point guard, it is unlikely Miller sees much time on the court this season.

Miller averaged 4.4 points, 3.5 assists, 1.9 rebounds, 0.4 steals, and 0.1 blocks in 16 minutes per game during 81 regular season games in the 2014-15 season.
Miller was dealt at the trade deadline from the Wizards to the Kings and reunited with his former head coach George Karl. He averaged 5.7 points, 4.7 assists, 2.5 rebounds, 0.6 steals, and 0.1 blocks in 21 minutes during 30 games for the Kings. While Miller did see a rise in productivity with his move to the Kings, the aging vet will be a free agent this summer, and unless he takes advantage of a teammates injury expect the 39-year-old to continue to decline.

Miller provided four points (1-10 FG, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, six assists, and three steals in 24 minutes in the loss to the 76ers on Friday.
Miller is getting consistent minutes off the Kings' bench. He is putting up nice assist numbers (6.4 in his last five games), but the 38 year old is not shooting well (26.3 percent).

Miller had four points (2-4 FG), six rebounds and seven assists in 26 minutes against Memphis on Wednesday.
It doesn't hurt that Darren Collison is still out with a hip injury. However, with Collisons return looming, Miller's production could potentially take a hit. He is one of George Karl's favorite players and could be called upon to take over late in close games, but that won't happen on a nightly basis.
Sat Feb 21 201512:23Miller made Kings debut Friday against Celtics
Miller made his Kings debut Friday against the Celtics. He finished the game with eight points, four rebounds, and four assists in 23 minutes.
Miller is expected to provide relief off the bench to Darren Collison this season after spending the first portion of the season in Washington. Although, he'll directly contend with Ray McCallum for playing time which doesn't bode well for either players.
