MIKE MILLER WORKS IT
Mike Miller, fresh off back-to-back NBA titles, is slowly trying to make his transition from Miami to Memphis (he signed with the Grizzlies this offseason, after he was amnestied by the Heat).
It’s safe to say that South Beach is much different than Memphis.

OLAJUWON WORKING WITH GAY
According to Pro Basketball Talk, Rudy Gay has been working out with Hakeem Olajuwon, because who hasn’t been these days.
On the PBT website, they have a really grainy Instagram video (can be seen here). The report goes on to say that Gay is in Houston to learn from the legendary big man.
Gay is trying to add a post game — or something close to that — to his repertoire, ala Kobe Bryant and LeBron James.
Both Bryant and James put in time with Olajuwon as well. It’s smart for a small forward or guard to hone some post moves, because we’ve all seen what it’s done for both Kobe and LeBron during the past few seasons.
