    I just don't care for him going half speed in workout videos that his marketing team posts. Like that's the best he does? Hopefully the Blazers put up a better package like they've been doing with other prospects.

    I guess he had mono after tourney and lost 13lbs.
    I remember Bill Walton having Mono his senior year of HS and because he slept a lot he grew 6".

    The fact that Kolde, Cronin and Dame aren't in any of the shots, tells me they're trying to give the illusion that they don't take Miller seriously.

    Cronin is there. Schmitz is there. Oliva is there. All front and center.

    This could also be a second workout. Shaedon came twice last yr but media only caught him once.

    I’d be happy with either Scoot or Brandon… and if we take Brandon, will be fun to say “it’s Miller time” when he hits a big 3.

    I want this guy to be a Blazer.
    * 2nd-team All-American (2023)
    * SEC Player of the Year (2023)
    * SEC Rookie of the Year (2023)
    - 18.8 ppg
    - 8.2 rpg
    - 2.1 apg
    - 38.4% 3pt
    - 91.9 DRat
    - 23.4 PER

    I think he has all of the tools to be a top tier NBA player.

    If we're drafting someone to keep, I want it to be Miller too.

    Majority of Hornets fans I'm seeing want Scoot and will be livid with Miller over Scoot.

    Chauncey was there too (although not sure how much that matters).

    They should take it from us, you don't want two guys who are far more effective with the ball in their hands than they are off the ball as your two best players. I think Kupchak gets this and that's probably why although there is a ton of bullshit buzz about Charlotte and Scoot right now, all of those reports still end with "but the Hornets are still leaning Miller".

    With how many games LaMelo doesn't play, I don't think it'll be a problem.

    Bert Kolde was there as well. You see him on the front row a few seats from Joe. He's between Hankins and Chauncey. Pause at 1:54 in the vid above.

    Dame might have been there in the back too like he was with Scoot.

    I did see that as well on his earlier highlight videos. But he seems to get it off well. Plus when you have Dame on your team, usually the guy guarding Miller's position would be in a bad position, due to the fact he was trying to double Dame.

    A 6'9 baseball pitcher could put some zip on a basketball pass....we've needed that guy since Pat Connaughton wore the pinwheel! Scoot and the Thompson twins are much stronger than this kid looks but his shot is awesome and he moves well.
