Brad Miller Suspended

He doesn't necessarily have to be taking anything, it could have been that he didnt follow the NBA's drug test policy right. He might have forgotten about testing or something, who knows. Only five games though.

For some crazy reason, I seriously doubt missing a drug test is going to net you a five game suspension
 
I know five games is minor in the grand scheme, but would this affect his likelyhood of getting traded this summer?

Like someone wanting to wait until after he served the suspension.
 
Hawes must have slipped him something in his morning coffee to free up some minutes at the 5 spot. ;)

I'd like to find out more details on what happened first, but not a smart move if it is indeed a substance violation.

Edit - it is also on ESPN, Yahoo, etc. now.
 
wow... miller failing a drug test... we know it wasnt steroids, that would mean he was working out...
 
"I didnt know you could fail a drug test from chewing grass" Brad Miller tells Mr. Stern.

I guess the B52 Bomber is flying higher than ever....
 
Well, jokes aside, steroids would have meant a 10 game suspension, so we really do know it wasn't steroids.

I seriously doubt that the NBA really tests for steroids anyway. Has any NBA player ever been suspended for steroid use? There were rumors about Darius Miles, but he wouldn't seem to be the most obvious user.

Yeah it will. There was someone a while back that went to the wrong place or some excuse and was suspended for five games for missing the test. As Gary said. Missing the test is the same as failing one. I told him to stop smoking the sardines.
 
what would give him a 5 day suspension? didnt darius miles just get a 8 day suspension? and we all know what he was doing.... everything else is way worse than the hydro green green... i couldnt imagine a 5 day suspension for heroine.... maybe he was on some sort of animal tranquilizers.... damn that miller and his hippie ways...

i hope that theus starts hawes at center... i dont want to see thomas/reef and moore starting on opening night.... that would be depressing....
 
tough luck for brad, especially if its only the ganja..
but I really think this could be a blessing in disguise..
spence will get to prove himself and might be able to lock a starting spot.
Thompson will get a big oppurtunity off the bench too. I hope they are both ready.

5 day suspension is a third drug offense. They don't specify what the offense is, but it means it was the third time.
 
5 games suspension is very likely for missing a drug test. Brad is a farmer at heart and the "crops needed tending to" and his custom ATV couldn't get him from the back 40 as they say (he really has 70 acres). Don't think it is anything more. So be done with it.
