Had a leader on the board at 2...ugh.
The fact Melo was at the Workouts might be a show of leadership?? Maybe Mitch is to senial to notice that..

I’m so confused why you think Portland was offering assets for a pick swap and Charlotte declined. This is so bizarre.
He’s making up scenarios with no facts or logic to back it up..

Portland really wanted Scoot at #3.
If Charlotte just drafts Scoot at #2, what happens?
CLT preferred BM and others preferred Scoot.
Obvious trade-down #2 to #3 scenario.
No no no no no…
Simply and easy to understand..
Portland wanted a vet..
They did not care whether they got Scoot or Miller…
And most reports in Portland feel like they liked Miller over Scoot anyway and he would have fit their team better with Dame..
Your scenario wasn’t even a possibility!!!

I agree with what you say/. It’s what I also said.
If you’re Charlotte and you want Miller and you have #2 and Portland wants Scoot and you can trade down to #3…it’s kinda a win-win. And Charlotte gets additional assets trading down…that’s the smart move.
OMG!! What is wrong with you..
Earth to Hookie if it came down to Miller or Scoot to Portland.. There is a strong opinion on Portland that they would have taken Miller as well because he fits better with their team With Dame then Scoot does…
Nothing you say is reality because Portland wanted to trade for a veteran and didn’t have any separation between Miller or Scoot.. Soooooooooo it didn’t matter to them who we picked.. If they had to make the pick (like they did) they were taking whoever we weren’t picking!!!
They weren’t going to give up assets for a certain player because either 1 was fine with them..

Dam would have preferred that foreign PF who went a pick after but oh well I guess at this point in the draft. How many PGs we need?
I definitely like to have 1 for summer league and not that BS we had last year..

Exactly. Dame’s time in Portland is over now.
They had to make a huge move and CLT had the assets to make it happen. Now it’s over.
But if CLT took Scoot it would have been even more in our favor. This roster needs a major rebuild, not just drafting a 19 year old.
Just stop living in your fantasy land ..
If we took Scoot they were taking Miller and hoping Dame would be happy ..
They couldn’t get a deal for the 3rd pick so they had to take Scoot and piss off Dame .. Now they are starting over..
Again they didn’t want to make this pick they wanted to trade it for a star vet player to pair with Dame.. They were forced into this pick…
This is reality not 2k

If Portland at #3 and New Orleans at #15 really want Scoot and you (Hornets) don’t want him at #2 but love Miller?
You can’t figure out a deal?
What are we talking about.
No !!! Because Portland wanted a vet not trade up for a rookie that plays the same position as their star player
Do you know who Dame Lillard is??
Not that hard to understand..
But since you have this non logical fantasy going in your head..
What are they offering to move up 1 pick??

PJ Is probably gone on a sign and trade.
I think Miles, PJ and Dennis are coming back and Oubre and Bouknight might be gone.. Hopefully Rozier as well..

You're right, let's trade up to the top pick in the 2nd round to draft a #3 center when we're trying to sign PJ Washington, whose best position is as a small ball 5, to an extension as well. Perfect roster building.
PJ is a 4 and sometime small ball 5 not a full time 5 or backup 5. You need bigmen in the pipeline and they weren’t making all these pick anyway..

Mitch said they had offers. Said something along the lines of they were offered some really good players. If they were going to trade the pick they had the opportunity to trade it pre draft. The Hornets then still make the pick and the trade is announced. Kind of weird to assume a pick swap was on the table with Portland and the Hornets turned it down. That doesn’t make sense. That’s why you’re mad it didn’t happen, because it doesn’t make sense for them to not do it if it’s available. Why would you assume it was available rather than the most likely reason it didn’t happen: it wasn’t available.
I have no clue what this dude is talking about and he can’t explain it either..

Portland wanted Scoot BAD at #3. Either that or a trade for vets and pics.
Hornets could’ve jumped on that leverage but they didn’t. Is what it is, but CLT could have done far better today. And I like and will support Miller.
Jesus I just showed 2 stories showing you what Portland really wanted to do was find veteran help for Dame not another young player..
Reality check is They might be starting over and trading Dame because they had to make this pick…
They did not want a trade up for Scoot.. Where are you getting this from..
And even if they did what were they giving up??

I read this board, never post.
You’re a known troll, I’m just posting the day of the draft.
Show me where I said the Blazers were trading up for Scoot. That’s the whole point. They weren’t because the Hornets made it known we were drafting Miller. It’s horrible Poker / FF game…Hornets have never had a game-face. We always tell our hand even when we can make major moves.
Lol.. You were talking about creating a bidding war between Portland and NO??
How does that happen if Portland doesn’t want to trade up for Scoot??
Im a troll but you are posting with no sense of logic..
Reality check : Portland wanted a vet.. NO was the only team publicly trying to trade up for Scoot with us or Portland.. No deal was ever a thing between us and the Trail Blazers..
This isn’t the NFL teams don’t usually trade up 1 pick in the NBA and give a team what they want in value…
If this was ever a thing what was Portland going to give us to move up 1 pick..

What are *you* talking about? Portland and New Orleans absolutely wanted Scoot (Portland rejected significant Pelican offers) and the Hornets saying they loved Miller over Scoot.
So then just make a trade with either!!!!
Hornets prefer Miller, cool.
Two or more teams prefer Scoot, cool.
Hornets have the highest pick to get either.
It’s not rocket science for the team with the #2 (Hornets) to trade down to #3 (Portland) and get their guy (Miller) and also another pick or player.
Some of the fans in this forum (you) are just hilarious to me. Hornets played this poker game wrong publicly. We agree.
Show me the report where Portland was talking about trading up for Scoot.. Don’t worry I’ll wait..
When you don’t find it don’t worry your credibility is safe.. lol
OH just to help you..
I can keep going if you like.. Most of Portland trade was rumors were trying to get a vet star with their pick to match up with Dame not Scoot..
Mikal Brirdges, Siakim, Lavin, and others were discussed by Portland not trading with us for Scoot..

Portland and New Orleans alone were hell-bent on Scoot.
If Portland had to draft Miller, Dame Lillard was gone in Portland (probably still is).
Why not create a bidding war in Charlotte for #2? If you can still get Miller along with *anything*, why not trade down 1 spot? It’s stupidity.
What are you talking about??
Portland wasn’t trying to trade up 1 pick for Scoot.. Especially when most of the league knew we were higher on Miller..
NO wanted Scoot but nobody truly know what they were offering..
Portland was good with getting Miller because he fits them just as much as he fits us.. You ain’t creating a bidding war when only 1 team is putting out in public they are willing to trade up..

Use the 2nd round picks to trade Rozier contract..

Once again, not about Miller vs Scoot in my opinion.
Teams were willing to trade assets for Scoot. Hornets missed an opportunity to make a big splash.
I only heard 1 team being serious .. Who else are you talking about??

Brandon Miller!
in Charlotte Hornets

Lol..
Its not even clear if that was even offered..
1. It’s 14 NO didn’t have the 16th pick..
2. Reports are now saying that NO wasn’t offering BI or Zion.. So please don’t run with unconfirmed narratives..
Newbies making weird nonsensical narratives make this board hilarious..
Please keep coming and making up poo.. It’s very entertaining..lmao
