Wednesday, October 20, 2010, Petaling Jaya – The Westports KL Dragons decided to regroup their line-up, adding American Nakiea Miller to replace Irish Jason Killeen.

Nakiea Miller is no stranger to the ABL fans, who played for Satria Muda BritAma last season alongside Alex Hartman. Standing at 6’10”, Nakiea will be the man in the middle who Dragons heavily depending on, and once again form a formidable inside-outside combo punch with Alex Hartman.

Besides Miller, the Westports KL Dragons also acquired Filipino Patrick Cabahug to replace Kevin White.

Kelapa Gading, Jakarta, Wednesday, February 3, 2010 – Satria Muda BritAma (SMB) treated their loyal followers with a spectacular show, dwarfing the Singapore Slingers with a lot of dizzying defensive stops and accurate passing on their way to a 74-45 blowout.

The win evened up the best-of-three semi-final playoffs at 1-1.

The first two Satria Muda possessions can almost sum up the story for the night. With Satria Muda getting the first touch, Nakiea Miller unleashed a 3-point bomb 1m away from the 3-point line to start the rampage. Then on the Slingers’ ensuing possession, Miller blocked Al Vergara’s lay-up to set the tone defensively.

In the first quarter, the Slingers were on a semi-zone defense with the Slingers’ Marcus Ng sticking his face all over Alex Hartman of Satria Muda. In their first scuffle very early in the quarter, Hartman bumped Ng who successfully sold it to the referees for an offensive foul, but after that it was guns blazing for Hartman as he made three consecutive baskets using Ng as the scope.

The Indonesian champions were simply in no mood to allow their season to end prematurely and built up as much as a 34-point lead with their American center Nakiea Miller doing the bulk of the damage and finishing with 24 points and 16 rebounds.

Miller had bore the brunt of some Singapore fans during their game one encounter and clearly came out with a point to prove, outplaying Singapore’s Kyle Jeffers who finished with just 5 points although grabbing 11 rebounds.

He also got some able support from the other import Alex Hartman who finished with 15 points, 8 rebounds and 7 assists, typical excellent all-round play from the wily import.
