In this episode of Locked on Hornets, our hosts give a detailed analysis of Brandon Miller’s performance in the Summer League and delve into the brewing drama surrounding the coaching staff. They discuss whether Miller’s seven assists against the Golden State are indicative of his playmaking ability, or if they are the result of a potentially disorganized coaching staff not being able to find him shots. They also bring in some saucy gossip from the True Hoop Podcast, which has an unnamed player spilling the tea on drama between head coach Marlon Garnett and his assistants.
Later on in the episode, our hosts explore the recent struggles of both Kai Jones and James Bouknight. They discuss the disappointing lack of progress shown by Jones and question whether Bouknight can make the most of the remaining Summer League games. The conversation wraps up with a preview of the highly anticipated Summer League game between the Charlotte Hornets and the San Antonio Spurs, where Brandon Miller will face off against number one pick Victor Wembanyama.

I feel like he’s going to show up big time against wemby
This team is the laughingstock of all professional teams . Its disrespectful to your fans and your #2 overall pick to not be prepared . To not have a true point guard is just sad . None of the coaches or players seem ready . Wemby is going to look like a GOD against us 😂
Bigs take longer to develop than guards so not sure why it’s time to give up on Kai Jones. Continue to give them time in g league.
It’s not the staff it’s our organization’s philosophy on summer league.
Other teams have a culture that they fit guys into the moment they join any level of that organization.
You know what a warriors player or a heat player or a spurs player looks like and is expected to behave on the court.
Teams set a standard and expectation once they put on that uniform.
We don’t do that.
Our philosophy in summer league seems to be just dumping them on the court and picking through the pieces.
It’s sink or swim which is infuriating to watch but I can’t completely knock it since our picks out side of 2021 seem to have benefited from it to some degree.
The one common denominator of success here as a draft pick is basketball IQ, if your a smart player like Graham, Miles, PJ, lamelo, Mark, and now Miller you will survive if not you will be exposed and struggle to rise without the crutch of a good system.
Coaching needs to show up today. Ik he a assistant staff but cmon, change the lineup NSJ/Bouk cant work on court.
Also move Miller to SF why small ball 4 that’s why his fouls up so much
Real talk this is the best episode I've seen from y'all good job
