Miller dead at 64 By Associated Press \| Friday, February 20, 2009 \| http://www.bostonherald.com \| NBA Coverage SALT LAKE CITY — Larry H. Miller, the car sales mogul who turned the Utah Jazz into one of the NBA’s most stable teams, died from complications of type 2 diabetes on Friday. He was 64. Miller was at home with his family when he passed away, the team said in a statement. Miller had a heart attack in June 2008, then spent nearly two months in the hospital for complications from diabetes. He was in a wheelchair after his release from the hospital and his medical problems continued, leading to the amputation of his legs six inches (15 centimeters) below the knee in January. A tireless worker with a knack for the most minute details, Miller started his career in an auto parts shop, then built a car dealership empire that made him one of Utah’s most recognized and influential people. Miller expanded his realm in 1985 when he bought a 50 percent share of the Jazz as the team appeared on the verge of moving to Miami. Miller bought the rest of the team a year later, declining an offer that would have sent the team to Minnesota, and the team in the smallest media market in the NBA flourished. The Jazz made two straight appearances in the NBA finals in 1997 and 1998. Article URL: http://www.bostonherald.com/sports/basketb...ticleid=1153575
