Reggie Miller takes a shot at Payton and Malone?

http://www.nba.com/pacers/news/news_030820_reggie.html

"You have to remember, he averaged 30 points a game in the playoffs
two years ago. Reggie is an unusual player. I can't imagine what it
would be like to go out and play a Pacers game without Reggie. He
probably could've joined the Lakers or a team like that to have a
great chance at winning a championship, but he wanted to come back and
try to do it here."

"I wanted to be loyal to myself, the franchise and the fans by
finishing my career with the Pacers and pursue our goal of winning a
championship. I could not see myself being one of those players that
bails out on their franchise just to try and win a ring."

Reggie is an idiot. If he was such a man of integrity, he wouldn't take a
cheap shot at other players while stating how noble he is.

He goes down as a career bridesmaid.

Cheap shot or not, it is the truth. I personally take offense at a
couple of guys who could never get it done when it counted coming to
ride Shaq and my coattails.

Payton made it clear he was not going to re-sign with the Sonics, at
least not unless they paid him some crazy amount.

so how do you explain all the cheap shots Shaq takes at other players?

Payton had not decided to go cheap to the lakers when traded. And would that
crazy amount be about what he turned down for Miami and Portland?

Think Reggie's shot at Malone includes playing for the vet's minimum?

He simply said the truth. He's everything but an idiot, sport needs
more players lkie him instead.

Are you implying that Bibby -isn't- a boyscout?

I never claimed Shaq was full of class, especially during interviews..I love
Shaq's game, but not quotes. But at least what you see is what you get with
Shaq. With Reggie, he's appearing to take the higher ground all the while
insulting a couple of hall of famers who never did anything to him.

yeah yeah yeah, I'm sure if the Lakers had $20 mil in cap room and offered
him that amount for one year he would have said no. If you believe that, I
have a bridge to sell you.

I'll tell you what is wrong with the NBA just as much as the players, and
that is the fans. All I ever hear about is fans complaining about players
greed and how they value money over winning. Now two hall of famers combine
to take 1/10th of the money they could have made elsewhere so they can win,
and they get put down for that too.
