TRAIL BLAZERS REQUEST WAIVERS ON FORWARD DARIUS MILES

Player's right knee injury deemed career-ending

PORTLAND, Ore. - Pursuant to NBA procedures with regard to career-ending
injuries, the Portland Trail Blazers have requested waivers on forward Darius
Miles, General Manager Kevin Pritchard announced today.

An independent medical examiner jointly appointed by the NBA and the NBA
Players Association examined Miles and determined that the damage to Miles'
right knee is severe enough to qualify as a career-ending injury.

Miles has missed all of the 2006-07 and 2007-08 seasons, last appearing in a
game for the Trail Blazers on April 15, 2006.

"Given the serious nature of his knee injury, we agree with the doctor's
conclusion that Darius has sustained a career-ending injury," Pritchard said.
"This allows Darius and the Trail Blazers to move forward and achieve closure
to this matter. To his credit, Darius worked hard to come back, but his body
just didn't allow it to happen."

The 6-9 forward appeared in 145 games for the Trail Blazers after arriving
from Cleveland in exchange for Jeff McInnis and Ruben Boumtje-Boumtje on Jan.
21, 2004. As a Trail Blazer, Miles averaged 12.9 points and 4.6 rebounds per
game.

The third overall pick of the Los Angeles Clippers in the 2000 NBA Draft,
Miles played six NBA seasons with Los Angeles, Cleveland and Portland. He
appeared in 412 games, with career averages of 10.6 points, 5.2 rebounds and
2.0 assists.

Kevin Pritchard今天宣布Darius Miles膝傷的檢查報告，
結果是Miles的傷讓他就算再不願意也得宣告退休。

NBA場上少了一個天分十足的飛人總會讓人覺得有惋惜之處，
尤其是Miles的年紀還很輕，更是令人遺憾。

但是就較殘忍的實際面來看，
Miles退休之後拓荒者將會增加不少可用的薪資空間，
(但是Miles退休之後錢還是照領)
在2009年的時候感受會較明顯。
拓荒者薪資狀況如下

現在就看KP怎麼運用這個薪資空間了。

最後還是要祝福Miles！他也曾是拓荒者的希望！
