Will Nic Batum Be The Next LaMarcus Aldridge Or The Next Darius Miles?
Many have been up in arms about the Blazers not signing Batum to a deal thus allowing him to become a restricted free agent this summer. This is typical for long time Blazer fans who will never forget how they felt when Drazen Petrovich and Jermaine O’Neal and Jermaine O’Neal became all-stars with the Nets and Pacers respectively. This train of thought has led small market franchises...

Draft. Resign. Cut. – From High School Straight to the NBA
Darius Miles. Jonathan Bender. Sebastian Telfair.
All there players jumped straight from High School to the NBA and were lottery picks.

Hardwood Classic: D-Miles Drops 47 On Denver (’05)
You can choose to look at Darius’s career night in one of two ways: it was a fluke, or it’s what could’ve been. Me? I sincerely believe it’s the latter. Fourty-seven points is obviously an unusual explosion for a player of any caliber, but had Darius really, truly given a damn about reaching his full potential on the court… maybe it remains his...
