I really do want to believe you.

He's really a fabulous basketball player, though.

He might be inconsistent, but so?

Hating Andre Miller is like hating Vince Carter in some ways,
but worse.

Vince Carter hate is always about what he could have been or
should have been, which is dumb because Carter still had a
fabulous...super fabulous in fact...pro career. Hating on
Miller is dumb because nobody expected anything. He's
done nothing but overachieve his entire career and refuses
to not be relevant. Its commendable.
