2001-02 SEASON: Andre Miller
PER GAME NUMBERS: MINUTES: 37.3 | POINTS: 16.5 | ASSISTS: 10.9 | REBOUNDS: 4.0 | STEALS: 1.6

You may know Andre Miller as a solid player for Portland right now. You may also remember him as the point guard who helped Carmelo Anthony come in to the NBA with guns blazing and then being the key player who was traded for NBA superstar Allen Iverson. Before all of that, Andre Miller played on the Cleveland Cavaliers who were horrendous before drafting LeBron James. While in Cleveland, Andre Miller put up phenomenal numbers for a point-guard, but was still never talked about and not even considered a contender for any awards. Take a nice look at his numbers and compare them to the NBA’s last point-guard to win back-to-back MVP Awards, Steve Nash (’05/06: 20.4 PPG, 10.2 APG, 3.7 RPG, .6 SPG). Not so far apart, are they?

Career stat comparison

Miller: 14.5ppg, 7.2asts, 4.1rbs, 1.4stl
Nash: 14.7ppg, 8.4asts, 3.0rbs, 0.8stl

Even their carerr stats are very close.

other notable PGs
John Stockton: 13.1ppg, 10.5asts, 2.7rbs, 2.17stl
Isiah Thomas: 19.2ppg, 9.3asts, 3.6rbs, 1.9stl
Gary Payton: 16.3ppg, 6.7asts, 3.9rbs, 1.83stl

Clearly their is a fine line between good and great, Thomas and Stockton were great the other three just very good.
