Reggie Miller, Exit Stage Left


During the NBA Playoffs, it has become clear to me that America needs to get an injunction barring Reggie Miller from acting. Seriously, those "Reggie's mailbag" ads are killing me.

How can great basketball players (and vaguely competent announcers) be such horrendous actors?

I, hereby, propose a list of current and former NBA players. I'll get things going:

Allowed to Act

1. Kareem Abdul Jabbar (Airplane)
2. Ray Allen (He Got Game)
3. Dwight Howard (T-Mobile commercial -- for some reason, the scream he makes when his videogame character pulls his hamstring really does me in)

Barred from Acting

1. Michael Jordan (Haynes commercials)
2. Shaq (Kazaam)
3. Reggie Miller
