I had heard an interview with him a couple years ago where he said he was encouraged to lose weight and getting healthy because of the death of Sean Brooks.Awww man. I loved Big O. I really enjoyed watching the big lug play.

Sean Rooks?Sean Marks.
I fixed it right as you typed that.Sean Rooks?
That's really the only clear memory I have of Big O. I remember in OT we had wrapped up the game and he was fouled at the end -- pretty meaningless, but he missed his first free throw and he was genuinely upset even though it had no baring on the outcome. I remember one of the announcers, I think it was Steve Jones, saying that he liked that Miller was upset that he missed that free throw. I don't know why I remember that one moment so well, but there it is.
