Those of you defending Miller are also defending the decades of historical draft incompetance by this franchise. It's not a coincidence. Amazing how you don't get it. Until Jordan has no say, they will never be taken seriously. 

This is a hilariously bad take. I hate this FO. They suck. Clifford will probably send Miller to the swarm because they’re idiots. However, there is so much bs flying around here it’s hard not to point out. Miller jumped Scoot on draft expert big boards this year. Not mocks, but player rankings, and judging by the reaction of some here you’d think we selected the consensus #20 player over the consensus #1 player. It’s just not based in reality. There was a narrative that nobody wanted to trade up for Miller, and when somebody posted a video of an insider literally saying that if teams thought they could get to 2 it would be for Miller, it was immediately “Nah that’s fake” and nobody wanted to talk about it after.

People just running with narratives.

No Miles? Or do you have him coming off the bench? I imagine it’ll take him a bit to get back in basketball shape.

Not completely sold we bring Miles back.  Kup is much more conservative than the average fan thinks

I've tried to tell everyone that they were considered equal prospects by the majority of teams. 

 

It was legit the media, fans and mocks that didn't know this and got it wrong. 

 

Scoot g league tape was going to be hard for him to come back from.

Given Charlotte’s history with guys with bad backgrounds and not including bridges but yeah Miller yeah Miller is the one that is going to work out.  Goddamn we never learn.   Not only do we not go with the more talented player we draft the dude linked to a goddamn murder.   fug you jordan.

How did we draft Melo? Williams looked solid as well? How is this possible since it’s the Hornets??

It’s Clifford. He’ll play vets over rooks until the decision is made for him to play rooks. 

that’s why Clifford needs to go!! I get it’s not the NFL but they need to put in the Rookies to learn!! There should be no excuse now with the long season not to give the rookies playing time and while vet’s cry for rest!!

We all know Hayward will have a lot of value as an expiring contract coming up next season.  
 

PJ Washington is a really good player.  I like this starting 5.

PG - Ball

SG - Scary

SF - BMill

PF - PJ

C - Williams

You think Bridges coming off the bench?

      With the first pick, don't draft a QB? Draft a DE? C'mon!

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      This draft is 2023 all over again, it's not hard to see. QB's who don't grade out as high first round prospects while at the same time, the following draft class looks to be loaded with elite QB prospects. Drafting a QB just because you need one (or making a bad trade to make said draft pick), when there isn't one worthy of that draft pick, is how you ruin franchises, just look at us right now.

      I upgraded to the S24+ a few weeks back. Very happy with it.

      LOL... Yet again proving you can't look below anything than what you see on the surface Mock drafts ARE NOT draft grades They are what people think will happen.  They are mocking teams taking QB's in the top 5 of the draft because that's just historically how drafts go regardless of the grades on the QBs.  Almost every draft expert, even those mocking QB's going high, have said time and time again that none of these QB's actually grade out as those type of picks. This is again, where I say you don't like to actually read what I have to say, because I already explained it. 2022 the exact same thing happened, mock drafts had guys like Pickett and Willis going in the Top 5 because that's just what teams usually do, but GM's listened to their prospect grades and knew they weren't worth taking that high, so they didn't. It's not to say QB's won't go that high this year, but it's to say that they aren't graded out as elite QB prospects.   And yes, I've never said I'm not a T-Mac homer. But me being that doesn't change that he will be the highest graded offensive player in this year's draft, at a position we haven't been able to solve since we lost Smitty.  Taking him makes all the sense in the world, my bias aside.
