miller and battier biggest fluke performance ever in the finals?

Fluke no. Two vets stepping up big when it counted the most yes.

Of course.  Because Battier and Miller weren’t known as savvy sharpshooting veterans before that performance, were they?

These two guy are no scrubs, their starters , especially Shane

 Fluke or not, they got a ring on their finger don’t they?

When you’re left as open as they were, they’re eventually going to go on a hot streak. Not a fluke, just the law of averages nearly derailing them against Indiana and Boston and shipping them the title in the finals

speaking of big finals flukes, first name that comes to mind is austin croshere of the pacers in 2000. He averaged over 15ppg and shot 55% from the field and got a BIG contract extension after that finals vs the lakers. He was a key factor for the pacers keeping that series close as he lit up AC Green. But he immediately proved to be a bust. He was a career 7ppg and 41% fg shooter. In fact he never averaged more then 10 points in a season and he shot in the 30’s percentile in 6 of 12 seasons. And thats a pf who cant even hit for 40% from the field half his years in the league.

 Miller had that one crazy game, but everyone dog has it’s day. Everyone in the NBA has those from time to time and it just so happens it great at the best possible time.

 If the opposing team has crappy rotational D expect good, open shots.  NBA shooters can hit open shots.  That was not a fluke. The Heat took advantage of the Thunder’s over-aggressiveness and lack of discipline on that end.

The Thunder need to tighten up their defensive rotations, and it starts with Westbrook.

Miller has always been regarded as one of the best 3pt shooters in the league, & Battier pretty much took over the role as the "most hated defender" after Bruce Bowen retired, not to mention he’s been a really good 3pt shooter the last few years himself.

So no it wasn’t a fluke, it was two good players doing what they’ve pretty much always done. These are the type of players real basketball fans know & respect. You just don’t know much about them because they’re specialists, not super stars.

Did not get out on them because Wade and Lebron were living in the paint. NBA players drain open J’s at a pretty hight percentage.

Somebody’s mad.
