Seriously though Lamelo Ball was an obvious pick and no brainer.  Clearly the best left in that draft

We would have picked Wiseman given the chance

If I remember correctly he is the one a lot of fans wanted…

Most of the fanbase. People conveniently forget that Lamelo was a risky pick and we had the worst centers in basketball.

Don’t disagree but he wasn’t available thankfully

Add Jordan is forced to sell the team to his billionare "friends" due to a bad stock gamble...and maybe intentionally passed on drafting a so called  "generational" talent for spite?  -Always Bobcating

Uh oh, insider information. I hadn't heard that. Also, please stop referring to Scoot, can't shoot Henderson as a generational talent. I cannot believe how many people bought into that hype train. HIs handlers did do a fantastic job though at getting everyone to look past horrible shooting and turnovers from the point guard position. I wish the kid no ill will, but his shooting has to improve dramatically. Maybe until then, he can just run past everyone and dunk it every time.

I have "generational" in quotations so its the buzzword the media throws at him often not mine. Honestly, I see him as a slightly better DSJ type who may be more of a basketball nerd to help him realize his potential that DSJ could not. Shooting can be taught, Athletic explosion, love for the game, good decision making and commitment to improve cannot be taught. 

Brandon Miller has talent and decent skills but he may be limited by his average athletic ability. He is struggling to drive by Summer League guys and yes, it matters.

It will be ability to adjust his game and play to his strengths that will be the make or break in his career so I am hopeful.

I know he will be a generational talent based soley on the fact the Hornets passed on him. Because that's what happens

Insert Brandon Miller 41 point game against South Carolina here.

New Orleans must have put some voodoo when returned the Hornets back to Charlotte!! Cuz we have been garbage since..  I joke.. I think MJ has been the major obstacle poor choice in GMs and coaches as been mentioned

I was about to post this exactly..but glad to see it jumped out of an otherwise reasonable list of complaints. 

I just like Brady. I think he can be a solid role player in the league. We need players that just do their role and make other players better.

If there is a place for Puke Kennard and Marvin Money Bags Bagley then Brady Manek can find a role in the NBA. 
 

he played great in his summer league game, former dookie AJ Griffin was even in awe.

Yeah I don't get the hate. He has a NBA ready frame and is a decent distributer and shooter.

He isn’t an NBA defender or distributor or athlete.  He can make shots and have an impact there but he is limited no doubt

I get that but surrounded by higher thought of guys at UNC with more raw talent he was the engine. It's done with now. He is a Hawk.
