I've found those miche bbs can be a pain in the arse.
The two halves seem to fit together with a really close tolerance so they are more likely to jam up than say, a Shimano unit.
I think the technique that I came up with was to fit the cups either simultaneously or in small increments, ie don't do the driveside right in then try and fit the nds.
I think they'll also sometimes come apart more than is ideal so that instead of having just a nds cup on it's own and the rest of all lumped together to go in from the driveside you get the bearing stuck in the nds cup and then its a bugger to get that to slide onto the axle nicely.
Assembling and disassembling everything off the bike a couple times and greasing any faces that need to come together or slide over each other might help?

Is this a BB with loose balls? You should have a lockring for the NDS cup if so, if not then something else is quite wrong.
