Miller Believes Sixers Took Him For Granted

Andre Miller believes the Sixers have regressed without a veteran point guard.

"Basically, they're in the same position they were before I got there [in 2006]," Miller said on Tuesday. "That's why I got traded [from Denver] to Philly."

Despite all their injuries, Portland is 18-8 with Miller in the starting lineup.

"You take certain things for granted," Miller said. "[The NBA] is getting younger and younger. You need solid veterans, whether it's a point guard or a big man, who can help the young guys out. That's not a slap in the face at the young guys; older guys can also offer a little bit of knowledge here and there."
