For saying that Pat Connaughton "put a couple of brothers on a poster" following an andone dunk. Even the very excitable Brian Harlan had to remind him that "we are still on the air"


Wonder if he will catch any heat but it was a bogus comment. If it were reversed he'd definitely catch flak with some people calling for his termination.

It's Kevin Harlan first of all. And I don't quite see what's so horrible about the comment which warrants Miller being nominated for douchebag of the week. It was a bit clumsily phrased which is what got Harlan's attention, but otherwise it was not that bad.

I will say though that after Harlan made the comment, "did you forget we're still on TV" it seemed that Miller for whatever reason was unusually quiet for an extended period of time. I think he may have been a little taken aback by Harlan's comment.

He tried to clean it up first by saying he was congratulating him for a good play then he referenced the "did you know we are on TV part.

What makes Miller a douchebag is the fact that there was no way "dunking on two brothers" is used if Connaughton is black. He has never used "brothers" before so why do it now?

He brought race into it and if the situations were reversed people would be calling for his head. Sports were always the one area where race and politics should not exist.

If a guy can play he can play. I've always hated when people have attempted to apply stereotypes to athletes. Undoubtedly this is what Miller did.

If the situation were reversed people would be congratulating him. Not telling him to be careful.

No you shut the fuck you no business born, insecure, rat soup eating motherfucker. The next time you enhance the quality of any thread in which you participate will be the first. You are another one of the prejudiced fucks that inhabit the place. You provide absolutely nothing besides standardized dismissive bullshit.
