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??

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

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.

They just drafted the rookie you’re talking about at the same position as their star player you’re taking about.

WOW! Is right.

I’m so confused why you think Portland was offering assets for a pick swap and Charlotte declined. This is so bizarre.

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.

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..

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 feel like maybe you don’t understand how NBA draft trades work, or maybe even trades in general. First, you need both sides to agree to a trade. It sounds like you think the Hornets can just decide to make a trade without the trade partner’s consent. Two, you don’t take the player and bank on trading him later. You work out the trade beforehand and select for each other.

As I’m typing this I feel like I’m pissing into the wind and I’m pretty sure you’re just going to repeat the same thing again so I’m done just be pissed over this nonsense whatever.

      Preseason Week 3 - vs. Pittsburgh (practice tweets, discussion, etc)

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      They had best show out in Week 1 there are zero,I mean zero,  excuses for that offense  defense, haven’t play together yet and they still have Mr Soft and Predictable as DC  I expect break downs at times  …but that offense returns all starters except Tremble and both Mayes and Brady are veterans and can play LG and know the system not up for any participation awards this season they can save that practice energy for Jacksonville.     I’m sick of the, winning,  or looking competitive, when it doesn’t matter.

      There are some tough decisions that I'm eager to see the results of... Does Blackshear sneak on to the roster as RB4? Does the team go with 4 TEs or just 3 again? And has Mitchell Evans done enough to defend his roster spot from James Mitchell? Who is WR6 and is there a WR7? TMac, XL, Coker, and AT seem to be locks imo and I'm assuming Renfrow also makes it due to all of the camp praise. Who makes it between Brycen Tremayne, Jimmy Horn Jr, and David Moore? If the team goes with 7 WRs, which one of those three doesn't make it? Jacolby George and Emani Bailey both have not gotten a lot of game time. Could the Panthers be trying to hide them so that they can be stashed on the PS? Do they go with 10 OL instead of 9? Who makes it out of Walton, Carter, and Kingston? DL locks are DB, BB3, ARob, and Turk. That leaves Jaden Crumedy, Cam Jackson, Sam Roberts, Shy Tuttle, and LaBryan Ray all competing for the final 1 - 3 spots. Does DJ Johnson get IR'd and Thomas Incoom make the roster as EDGE5? What in the fuuuuuuuuuuuuck is going to happen at LB? Only locks are Wallace, Rozeboom, and Cherelus (Wallace has mentioned in media how Cherelus has been big bro for him on the team) seem to be locks. Rhattigan had some good moments against Houston, Martin-Scott is an SC guy, Krys Barnes has popped on defense and on special teams, and Windmon got time starting for the team last season. Are two of those guys going to make it or are the Panthers poaching from another team's cuts? CB5... who is it? Do they go with the 4 expected safeties or bring in a 5th? Has Ransom done enough to take the start from Nick Scott?

      I had this discussion with my buddy yesterday afternoon. If we start this season very slow(especially with the schedule being what it is) and then "rally" in the second half to get to 4-7 wins, I am already gonna be pretty heated at the staff overall. I know we are a very bad roster but I am not gonna keep excusing these slow season starts WITH late season rallies. That's a coaching staff problem, IMO. It's more excusable to just stink gate to gate, IMO. At least you can understand why.
