Farewell Reggie Miller. He may not be remembered as one of the all time greats. He wasn’t a great defender. He didn’t play above the rim. And, he never won an NBA championship. However, the mark he leaves on the NBA is immutable. In an era where players dominated games from above the rim, Reggie destroyed his opponents from the outside. He made just under 24 feet look like a layup. For me personnally, there is no one, sans the greatest (23), that raised their game more than Reggie when it counted (Just ask any Knick fan). And just like other clutch guys like Jordan and Horry of my era who excelled individually when it counted, Reggie was a team guy first and foremost. His critics say he doesn’t deserve to be enshrined with greats, that Reggie was simply just the next “Andrew Toney”. But his fans, of which I am one, have 25,279 reasons why he should be in the hall.
