Andre Miller was surprised he received a suspension by the NBA for his hard foul on Blake Griffin.
"I was surprised," Miller told The Columbian in Portland. "I actually wasn't even notified. I found out toward the evening when I was sleeping that there would be a suspension. It just shows you how soft the league has gotten, protecting young players. It's not like it was when I came in this league."
Miller had held the NBA's longest active consecutive game streak before his suspension.
