Brad Miller officially signs with Rockets
Basketball Betting Lines
07/20/2010 -
Houston, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Houston Rockets officially brought center
Brad Miller into the fold on Tuesday after signing him to a previously
reported three-year, $15 million contract.
Miller, 34, averaged 8.8 points, 4.9 rebounds and 1.9 assists last year in 82
games for the Chicago Bulls.
"Obviously, it's been a long time coming," Miller said. "Ever since (head
coach) Rick (Adelman) got here, I've been wanting to come down here. He's my
favorite coach with his whole system...I'm very excited about it."
Miller was a two-time All-Star under Adelman while in Sacramento. He played
five-plus seasons for the Kings before being dealt to the Bulls late in the
2008-09 campaign in a six-player swap.
"We've been looking for somebody to give us strong minutes at the center spot
to pair with Yao Ming for some time," said Rockets general manager Daryl
Morey. "I think Brad is going to be a fan favorite."
The Purdue product originally signed with the Charlotte Hornets as a free
agent in 1998-99 and over 12 NBA seasons holds down career averages of 11.7
points, 7.5 rebounds and 2.9 assists while connecting on 48.2 percent of his
shots. He's started 592 of his 793 games played and also logged a brief stint
with Indiana.
