  1. I have no clue why people put Miller above Scoot. So what he’s 7 inches taller he won’t amount to what scoot will

  2. Love the player comp for Miller. Ask anyone if they want prime D rose or prime Middleton and that answer should be who you draft

  3. If Brandon Millers only major question mark is strength i would definitely bet on that lol.

    There are not many guarantees in the league, but the nba has done ONE thing consistently well over and over again and that’s put weight on players.

    I’d rather get a guy a nutritionist and stick him in a squat rack over getting him a shooting coach and pray he grows overnight to defend the league’s absolute rouge’s gallery of super guards every single game.

  4. Its already confirmed hornets are choosing miller. He met with the hornets already and they prioritize fit over talent. I hate it.

  5. the blind scoot henderson love w ZERO facts to back it up is getting old… the hornets will never be there bc the fans just want excitement… building a champion isnt on their radar. as long as scoot does tomahawk one hand dunks we can lose 50 games no problem. they never mention a scoot melo backcourt would be the worst d back court in the nba…. or how melo might bolt outta clt…

  6. If anyone can name me a explosive guard 6’2 and under to lead a team to a ring as a first option I’d consider scoot but history shows it’s wings plus we have lamelo

  7. Brandon Muller will have very similar off court problems as Ja, just because he was raised right, and seems like a good kid, they can and do make poor decisions because of who they hangout with. And judging by how Ja’s continued behaviour and how it has negatively effected the Grizzlies should be all the proof that just the risk alone with miller we shouldn’t take him. Miller might even fall out of the top 10 with this off courts stuff. Scoot Henderson wants no part of the stuff Ja and Miller wants, Scoot is a born leader and will put an identity to the hornets who haven’t had one for years

  8. It's so common for people to be nervous about the new up and comer, that's why people can't think outside the box and are fixated on scoot. Being afraid of choosing Miller someone less on the radar earlier is a mistake. Don't be afraid to be wrong, take Miller and you won't be

  9. Anyone else still recovering from the Canes series? 🙁

    On topic – Sam Vecenie was a great guest! Good episode.

  10. Why is this a debate? If you're a Hornet fan you want the best player. Scoot is the best player. Its simple

  11. With Brandon Miller working out for 12 teams give or take, doesn't this bode well for the Hornets to explore trading back options?
