If it's a death in the family, he should disclose that. Other athletes do it all the time...it's perfectly acceptable. His failure to do that only fuels the speculation that he's on the trading block and isn't happy about it, therefore using the "personal reasons" excuse. That's what I think is going on.

Since you aren't a fan of the team anyways, I really doubt Brad cares what you "expect".
Maybe he had a death in the family or a baby being born (most likely from all accounts). What difference does it make to you?
Does it really put you out that he has to be away? Apparently the team is fine with it, so the reason must be valid. Chill out and give the guy some privacy when he needs it.

Wait, you went on about how bad he is and how much you dont like him, then you say its bad that hes gone? Odd.
These people are here to play basketball, not to have private information thrown everywhere, if he wants to tell the world whats going on he will, if he doesnt, thats his business, its as simple as that.

Unfortunately, tabloids, papparazzi and certain blabbermouth celebrities have given people the notion that they have a "right" to know everything about celebrities and sports figures. Actually they don't.
Unless I hear otherwise, I presume the team is accomodating a legitimate request from Brad. I wouldn't want my boss telling everyone in the office the details of my health or family situation. All my co-workers and clients need to know is that I am out on leave.
We do not own these players lives. Or was the amendment banning slavery repealed when I wasn't looking?

Don't need to. I'll voice MY opinion...don't need to know what everyone else thinks...Bottom line is this: Miller needs to let us know why he's missing games. It's a very simple concept, folks.
Personal reasons are usually called personal reasons for a reason. It's not fair to pry into a person's life for information like that. I mean face it, the NBA is Brad's job and his personal issues are a part of his life. It could be a kid getting sick, a family member like his mom getting sick, his wife could've had a baby, we don't know. But the NBA is his job and he works to play BBall, not to be part of a soap opera. If he wants his reasons kept private than what is your problem with that?
