With the news of Reggie Millers upcoming retirement, effectively ending a brilliant 18 season career.  Here are just a few quotes regarding Reggie Miller taken over the years:

"I think every year I stand up here that I don't take a local player, I'll probably get booed."
-Pacers CEO Donnie Walsh on June 22, 1987, after the then-team general manager drafter Reggie Miller with the 11th pick instead of Indiana University star Steve Alford

"(He's) the best shooter I've ever been around. . . . If you needed one guy to make an outside shot, I don't know if you could find anybody better. He's going to be missed."
-Pistons coach Larry Brown, who went 190-138 on Pacers' bench with three playoff appearances from 1993-94 to 1996-97 seasons with Miller leading the way

"He's a guy that when I played against him I wanted to smack him. But I all I can do is take my hat off to him."
-Retired center Patrick Ewing, whose New York Knicks were hurt by many of Miller's playoff fireworks

"I like to be the first one in the gym, but regardless of what time I got there, he was always there already. That's what made the game's best 3-point shooter. He would be there before the lights would come on. That showed me how hard I needed to work."
-Timberwolves guard Fred Hoiberg, a Pacers teammate from 1995-96 to '98-99 seasons

"He was the person you loved to hate if you were on the other team. In the locker room, it was, 'We've got Reggie tonight; he's going to be yapping.' Sometimes it got to the point you couldn't do anything about it. You just had to sit there and take his offensive onslaught. But . . . when I first signed he welcomed me with open arms."
-Pacers guard Anthony Johnson
