The thing people don't seem to realize about Miller is that he's a mobile, quick-footed athletic guy. He has not quite the strength at holding his ground of somebody like Connolly, but he's still pretty tough and can move around a post man to reach in on the entry pass, as well as zip around the court on hedges and recoveries. (Good point about his jump ball prowess, too.)

I feel that his offensive confidence has been stifled by all the better scoring options he knows he has surrounding him. After the first minute, only in the most desperate circumstances does it seem reasonable to him to use a possession offensively. It's hard to be fluid when you play with that mindset. If you stuck him on some of the other teams in the league he probably would have scored a lot more and developed his offensive game more.

But he still shows tantalizing flashes of ability, like that perfect trey he dropped in in the tourney, his improved FT shooting, and a couple of fast moves down the lane. Plus he is a good passer, usually good for an inside assist or two if he gets extended minutes.
