Vince Carter: You’ll be a Hall of Famer. When your time comes, who will be sitting up there with you? Have you thought about that? Stephen Curry: I actually haven't. I mean, you, Steve Nash, Reggie Miller, and Ray Allen are like the names that I think off top. Carter: Those are some of the ones I actually said. Curry: Those are my guys, it's crazy to even say out loud.
Reggie Miller: Sometimes it’s getting success too early—you mentioned it. I think his decline really started after the Hawks went to the Conference Finals and lost to the Milwaukee Bucks, the eventual champions. I think things came too easy for him. And again, I'm not in their practices. I don't follow them day to day, but I hear things. And when you hear things—like players don't like playing with him, he doesn't practice hard, he doesn't come early and work out, he certainly doesn't stay late and work on his game—when I hear comments like that, I hope they're not true. Because I think he is an unbelievable talent, and he can help a team out. The problem is: he's small. He's not going to grow. He's not very big—he's slight. So he gets taken advantage of at the defensive end."
During an impromptu interview in Toronto for NBA on NBC, Vince Carter asked Golden State's prolific point guard which Hall of Fame presenters he wants there for the special occasion. Curry hadn't thought about it until that moment, he said, but he immediately fired off a short list. "I mean, you," Curry told Carter, "Steve Nash, Reggie Miller and Ray [Allen] are the names that I think off the top of my head. ... "Those are my guys, though. It's crazy to even say out loud."
The first NBA controversy involving Indiana Pacers legend Reggie Miller is being relitigated for a few seconds in this season's "Stranger Things." The Pacers picked Miller 11th overall in the 1987 NBA Draft. However, many fans expected and yearned for New Castle High School and Indiana University legend Steve Alford, who ended up going in the second round to the Dallas Mavericks.
The merits of Miller and Alford are being debated by soldiers occupying Hawkins as three friends of the heroic kids — (from left in the clip) conspiracy theorist and weapons smuggler Murray Bauman; high school AV Club teacher Scott Clarke, and local police chief and father figure to the character "Eleven" Jim Hopper — are lurking. One soldier: "You're telling me Alford wouldn't have doubled that score?" A second soldier: "Four of six from the field ... Reggie's gonna be something special. You mark my words. Walsh can do no ... "
In S5E7 of Stranger Things, we get a brief scene of two guys arguing about Reggie Miller and Steve Alford.

What’s the next evolution of the NBA?” Dan Patrick asked. “10 years from now.” “Dare I say there may be a four-point shot?” Reggie Miller, a color commentator for the NBA on NBC, answered. “Would you be in favor of that?” Patrick said. “The game, everything evolves,” Miller responded. “Life evolves. I have no problem with that. Now, it’s going to mess up the records. If I’m Stephen Curry, I would be upset with that. But in 10 years, I would not be surprised if there’s a four-point line.”
While Miller was a shooting guard and perimeter shooting specialist, even he misses seeing the inside play and post-up focus that dominated the league before three-point shooting took over. “I would just like to see a little bit more inside play,” Miller explained. “It was so good when you had dominant big men who could play with their backs to the basket. You just don’t see a lot of that anymore.”
Snoop Dogg will be a game analyst on Peacock’s Los Angeles Clippers versus Golden State Warriors game on Monday, Jan. 5, sources briefed on the move told The Athletic. Snoop, whose real name is Calvin Broadus Jr., will call the game’s second half from courtside with Terry Gannon and Reggie Miller. Snoop will attend the pregame meetings and then observe the first half before putting on his headset.

Dan Patrick: Jeff Teague on his podcast got into a discussion about Joker versus Shaq. How would they do against each other? They were talking about Shaq in Orlando would dominate Joker, but Joker with Shaq after that. Bbecause he's inside outside that he would probably drive Shaq crazy. Reggie Miller: Okay, let me first start saying, are we playing in today's rules or are we playing in Shaq's rules in the 90s, early 2000s? Like, which one do we get to do? Does Shaq get to get it in the post and turn? This was Shaq's favorite move and he got away with it today's game, he wouldn't be able to get away with that. So, which rules are we playing with? Patrick: Okay, if you said, let's play today's rules and I got Shaq at his peak and Joker at his peak. Who you got? Miller: I think Shaq dominates in any era. Let me start by saying that. So it it wouldn't matter. I just think they would put Shaq in a gazillion pick and rolls in today's game and get him out of the paint. Shaq would have to cover more paint. Now, I do agree. Orlando Shaq, who was nimble and skinnier and could run all day, I think he would thrive. I still think the most dominant of Shaq when he was in LA and much bigger, he would still have an effect on the game. How would he do versus Joker? I would love to see… I'm still going with Big Fella. Look, Shaq, he denied me on a lot of occasions.

Allan Houston: In the 90s, I still think someone should do something on this — that our position in that decade, I don’t know if there’s ever been another era, at least for the two-guard position. You go down all the names — Mitch Richmond, Michael Jordan, Reggie Miller, AI, Stackhouse, Ray Allen, Steve Smith, Rip Hamilton, Michael Redd — just keep going. Every single night that position was really trying to own their space, and you had to do it in so many different ways. With Reggie you had to guard him differently than Michael Jordan, Mitch Richmond, or J.R. Rider. The individual matchups every night at that position are what I miss — and what basketball misses. It’s just that shooting guard battle. Those matchups, and the way we had to score, that’s what’s missing. The game’s smarter and more efficient now, but I’m not sure it’s as fun to watch.
Reggie Miller on LeBron’s new role: “I think he can. I think he will. And yes, I think all aging star players—I wouldn’t put myself in that category with LeBron—but we’ve all gone through it and I welcomed it. And I know exactly for me when it happened. It was the year after we went to the Finals. I had ankle surgery. We were starting new. Isiah Thomas was coming in for Larry Bird. We had just traded for Jermaine O’Neal. So clearly, we were going younger. And if we wanted to continue that level of excellence, I knew that I had to take a step back and I knew that Jermaine O’Neal, Al Harrington, Jonathan Bender, Jamaal Tinsley—those guys were going to have to grow. And not that Luka Doncic needs to grow because he’s already an All-NBA player, but I think this is a welcome sight for LeBron.”
Dan Patrick: Michael Jordan's role at NBC. What have you been told? Reggie Miller: Absolutely nothing. Patrick: You're not curious? Miller: Oh, I am very curious. I can't wait. I mean, to have him a part of whatever part he wants to play in this broadcast, I'm all for. Yeah, it's great. But they don't tell us anything. I'm very low, man, on the total poll. I'm probably below you. Patrick: I think it's going to be sort of like Kobe inside the mind of Kobe, details. Miller: Wouldn't you like to see that? Miller: I would love to see that. Yeah. And hear that.
Reggie Miller has a message for New York Knicks fans. “I will say this, cause people always think that I hate on the Knicks, which I do not, I love the Knicks,” the Basketball Hall of Famer and longtime New York sports villain said Thursday during an NBA on NBC conference call. “If the Knicks cannot get out of the Eastern Conference this year, something is wrong!” Hear that, Spike? Some of the potential obstacles on the Knicks’ path to the NBA Finals have been cleared in the eyes of Miller and others with Jayson Tatum of the Boston Celtics and Tyrese Haliburton of the Indiana Pacers suffering Achilles injuries that are expected to sideline them for most or all of the season.
