What are you looking for specifically? You want them to wear an oversized plain suit like LeBron James and Carmelo Anthony 20 years ago?

Times change 🤷‍♂️

No, my gripe is they all look the same. I get it, they're kids. They dress what's popular. It'd be nice to see someone with some individuality.

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

It was a 3 player draft and we had the 3rd pick. Fortunately for us Warriors went Wisemen (who we wanted over Melo btw). We basically dumb lucked our way into Melo.

And many fans wanted Wiseman while calling Melo a bust/failed pick.

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. 

People have lost their damn minds. This is exactly like Bryce Young/CJ Stroud where people thought Stroud was the higher rated prospect just because that narrative built up when it wasn’t even reality.

Here’s a CONSENSUS big board with Brandon Miller as the CONSENSUS #2 PROSPECT based on multiple national media big boards.

But people still trying to say they drafted for fit. Just dumb af.

Brandon Miller is a Hornet.  Totally supporting this guy.  He has special talent and appears to be a bright and determined person.  I liked his interview after the pick.  He fits the team so now we have to support this guy and make sure Clifford doesn’t stunt his development by sitting him on the bench.  I would find it maddening if he doesn’t play right away.

He absolutely does not seem like a bright person.

I was on this forum the night Malik Monk dropped to us. Everyone was breaking out the party hats. We'll have to see how this plays out. 

I didn't like that pick and Monk never really acted like he wanted to be in Charlotte. That said, the coaches did jerk him around for whatever reasons they used.

    • The deep ball or at least the threat thereof is an absolutely essential component of success in today's NFL, and not the '20 air yard' nonsense that the NFL likes to push. Teams have to account for the field-flipping, immediate TD play or else they just sit on things. We've seen it for years now. And with respect to Brees, the latter half of his career has him as the ultimate short-game QB... and it still wasn't enough to overcome the best competition when it counted most. When that element went missing towards the second half of the 2010s they were still a deadly team when they had superior defense, but they ultimately fell to the best defenses.
    • Dude.. that sounds so sad. 
    • Bryce either finds a deep ball this year or he doesn’t.  His success hinges on that entirely. is there a successful QB currently playing that doesn’t have an accurate deep throw? there are only so many underneath plays in a playbook. if that’s all bro can do, expect a pick 6 record. Defenses are too fast and smart. A devastating run game is going to 1000% have to be the thing that keeps defense honest if Bryce’s deep ball doesn’t improve. The importance of that one attribute can not be overlooked.  I so wish people would stop insulting Brees, a top 10 first ballot HOF’er with these stupid Bryce comparisons. Brees could drop a 40 yd DIME on a rollout or from shotgun.    I want the Panthers to win. I don’t care who pilots the ship. I don’t really care about any of the individual pieces.
