Miller tries to follow triple-double when 76ers meet Hawks
Jan 27, 2007 - 3:37 PM Philadelphia (13-31) at Atlanta (15-26) 7:00 pm ESTATLANTA (Ticker) -- Andre Miller continues to find his comfort zone with the Philadelphia 76ers.
Coming off his seventh career triple-double, Miller tries to lead the 76ers to their fourth victory in six games when they visit the Atlanta Hawks on Saturday.
Acquired in the trade that sent Allen Iverson to the Denver Nuggets on December 19, Miller is averaging nearly 13 points in 19 games. He scored 12 with 12 rebounds and 13 assists for the 76ers in Friday's 105-97 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Andre Iguodala, who recorded his own triple-double on November 22, scored 22 points and Joe Smith added 15 off the bench for the 76ers, who are 7-12 since the trade.
The Hawks have won two straight contests after dropping three in a row and are 7-11 at home this season. However, they are averaging just 84.2 points in their last five outings.
Atlanta completed a split of a four-game road trip with Friday's 93-90 triumph over the Orlando Magic. Joe Johnson made 14-of-23 points and scored a season-high 39 points and Josh Smith added 24 with 11 rebounds.
