    I really like that hat. With the raised lettering. I like Miller too, and he will be a great player for the Hornets. Unless he isn't, and they trade the pick to Brooklyn for Bridges.

    I haven't read this whole thread. I'm sure someone's mentioned it. But Miller will be 21 as a rook, so it's OK to draft him.

    Yeah he's an older prospect, just like Amen, I think he might even be a bit older than Sharpe. But he looks NBA ready with defense, shooting, and passing that should translate right away. His age would be more concerning if he had holes in his game like Scoot or Amen lack of shooting.

    "I have done Executive Protection for NBA /NFL players for many years and I must say that the #2 picked in this year NBA draft @brandmillerr and his family is one of the most respectful, honest, humble and close family that I had ever been around.

    Miller is the other end of scoring efficiency compared to Scoot and Amen.
    Fit may not be the right word. What does Charlotte NEED? They don't need a fantastic passer. They already have one. They need an efficient scorer who can get you 20-30 points a game.
    Last season, LaMelo Ball was the only player who shot over 35% on 3-pointers (37.6%). (I'm not counting Svi, who is on his 6th NBA team.)
    (Zero divided by zero is not 1.000. It's "undefined.")

    If we were to trade down for #6/11, I'd like the length and both offensive and defensive versatility of Hendricks and the other Miller, Leonard. Shooting, passing, multi-positional offense and defense and LENGTH.

    Richards was 1-1 on three's; that's how they got to 1.000. Mason Plumlee was 0-0 and had no mark

    He seems skilled but soft. I hope he has a killer workout.

    Efficient scorer who likes defense….why don’t we like him again? Because of a delusional 33 year old pg that thinks we are 1 player away?

    I like how that says the Pacer Paul George - like he used to be Anakin Skywalker, but now he's the the Clippers Paul George - Darth Vader

    Dame also thought Stotts was a great coach, CJ was a great running mate, Neil was a great GM, his cousin wasn't a joke of a two way player, and instead of learning to pass out of a trap when he got swept - he should spend the summer learning to heave 40 footers.

    Dame should stick to playing basketball and let others do their jobs. Most underrated strength of guys like Duncan and Dirk - they didn't get in the organization way.

    Not saying you're wrong at all, but I feel back in the Duncan/dirk hayday there wasn't nearly as much placating to the biggest star on the team as there is now. Back then maybe Lebron. Revisionist history is what I may be doing, because it's strictly based on memory and comparison to today's entitled era of basketball.
