TNT’s Reggie Miller remains a funny guy

Another gem from TNT’s Reggie Miller.

During Thursday’s Chicago-Cleveland game, play-by-play man Marv Albert said someone on the Cavaliers staff had compared Anthony Parker’s shooting to Miller’s.

“The only thing Anthony Parker and I have in common,” Miller said, without missing a beat, “is, our sisters are better than us.”si-cover-candaceparker

Albert and Miller later speculated on a 2-on-2 showdown with Reggie and sister Cheryl Miller, the long-retired USC star, taking on Anthony and his sister Candace Parker, right, the current WNBA star for the Sparks from Tennessee.

Cheryl Miller, who also works for TNT, was a four-time All-American for the Trojans, and is in the Basketball Hall of Fame. She was the Naismith Player of the Year three times.

“Give us a year,” Reggie Miller said, but then in serious tone added, “not going to happen … We’re done.”

TNT then played a snippet of a Cheryl Miller interview with Shaquille O’Neal, where the Big Aristotle looked into the camera and said that she was better than her brother.

    Candace Parker would eat Cheryl Miller’s lunch these days…

    Cheryl is a basketball Hall of Frame. Unless I see Candace Parker name in there, I think not. Parker still have a long way to match Cheryl.

    Reggie was very funny with his comments. You got to enjoy them

    Candace Parker might not have yet achieved as much as Cheryl Miller did during her career, but by the time Parker hangs ‘em up she may have accomplished more. But all I’m saying is that Cheryl Miller today couldn’t do anything with Candace Parker. As Charles Barkley says, the only person who’s undefeated is father time.
