You still fail to see the big picture DB5.

Miner was touted as "baby Jordan" - so 9ppg hardly gives him any career credit when he had such big raps.

While Gheorge wasn't a natural baller, he did win a most improved player of the year award and actually helped his teams.

Miner didn't help his teams - he couldn't be coached, the veterans he played alongside didn't trust him and he sulked when given few minutes.

This debate is closed!

Yes played 107 more games (1 season and 25 games).Career averages of 9.8 pts and 6.4 reb. As opposed to 9.0 pts and 2 rebs.

Inspiring stuff really. Now back to the couch.

DB5 have you ever got off the couch? I mean seriously, think about it.

You see, even big Gheorge played more seasons in the NBA than Miner - so I think that says more than anything about the lack of game he had!

^^lol @ Gheorge Muresan bagging a NBA player's skills.

"He could jump and dunk, but didn't play defence, couldn't handle the ball and couldn't hit a jump shot."

Your career to a T isn't it?

Miner was a dud! He could jump and dunk, but didn't play defence, couldn't handle the ball and couldn't hit a jump shot.

He was nothing as a player and isn't missed. He was lucky to get into the league, but more than one coach said he was nothing...and they were proven right.

Miami Heat organization and Kevin Loeughry or whatever was his last name,destroyed Harold Miner's career! Why did the Heat draft him at all if they had Steve Smith and Glen Rice! Harold Miner probaly did not have the greatest jumpshot or defense, but his strength was that he 'was' an incredible one-on-one player and he would break any type of defense.SCORING MACHINE!Unbelievable killer crossover(like TIMMY HARDAWAY)and a great crossover spin. And he would create shots when there was no shot, just like MIKE. In his prime he was a mix of Allen Iverson and Vince Carter together. As a rookie he averaged 1 point for every 2 minutes played, but he got so much bench time that his knees started to 'HURT'! There was a reason why he was called 'BABY JORDAN' and all you ANTI-MINERS BETTER FIGURE IT OUT! Hey, there is a member on this forum who's user name is DM and I got a question for you. You posted that you have highlights and videOs of Miner, would you be willing to sell me a copy? Anybody with videos of Miner e-mail at elreymatador@yahoo.com
