Mark is such an exciting player to have. He reminds me of Robert Williams defensively with even more offensive potential and hopefully a healthier player than Rob.

His presence inside is huge. The Heat announcers were even talking about how it opens up the other guys to take more risks on defense knowing that he can clean up behind them.

FWIW I was also somewhat happy with Miller with the caveat that he’s not a perfect player and will not explode on the scene right away. But I see the tools that show he can be a very strong core piece. I really liked seeing him make good, quick decisions a lot of times. On 3 specific occasions I remember, he drove, drew an extra defender and immediately made the pass out to the uncovered man. 2 times Thor made the 3 and the third time was a missed 3 by Sumner.

We'll see what his dedication to the game and work ethic looks like but he reminds me a lot of Tatum in Boston, Tatum was fine his rookie year and year 2 but nothing crazy special, he really worked on his game and exploded later on though. Miller could be similar if he can get there but I agree he's not going to step in year 1 as a starter and average 15-20+ points. He really does have all the tools in the world to be an elite small forward so that is exciting. I was a Scoot guy pre-draft but Miller has such huge potential and if he hits it would be a perfect fit with LaMelo and Mark as core pieces so it's hard to complain with where we're at. 

 

Just wish we had a better coaching staff since Clifford really ain't it. The roster is very exciting but the right coach is needed to get the most out of the young guys and develop them.

      You don't put the spoiler alert at the end, L-Town. Sheez.  I will say that his belief in undersized NTs seems to be behind us.   We got some beef at NT.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      I think that Cam rubbed some refs the wrong way, but I had forgotten this stuff. Should not matter.  I remember being furious with Rivera. I personally think Rivera was the most overrated coach in Panther history--he had Cam, weapons, a great defense--and never had back-to-back winning seasons.  As a Coordinator in San Diego with Norv Turner (I believe) I recall a season when they were #1 on D and #1 on Offense and still struggled to make the playoffs.

      What are y'all grilling/smoking with ??

      For those with a classic 22" or 26" Weber Kettle, go and get yourselves two things: a) the VORTEX. It's basically a piece of heavy-duty sheet metal formed into a volcano/cone shape. Sit that in the middle of your kettle and pile in your charcoal. Crank the coals up to max temperature (open all the vents, you know the drill) and put chicken wings or thighs around the outside of the center ring.   You've got yourself the best air fryer setup for some incredible super-crispy grilled wings.  Lowes shows it at $40, but your local Walmart may have it for under $15, check the clearance rack  https://www.lowes.com/pl/grills-outdoor-cooking/grilling-tools-accessories/vortex/4294610365-721174412814    b) Envious of all your friends with a wifi-enabled pellet grill? Add wifi control and accurate temp management to your Weber kettle with the SPIDER GRILL's VENOM controller. Get complete temp control for your kettle with this electronic add-on (no drilling holes required!).
