His basketball IQ is honestly the most impressive thing I have seen from him so far. He plays under control and always seems to make the right play. Already one of the smartest players on the team as a rookie!

 

Over time I would like to see us put the ball in his hands more often. He's basically 3&D right now. He can create for others if we let him control the ball.

Yeah the assist on the Richards dunk was nasty. Also Ish just got here so he's going to get some vet tips to push his IQ even higher

His passes were incredible

Personal opinion but I think Miller had the nicest as well as the most pivotal plays of the game.

The nicest play of the game was Miller’s step back three in the corner, after he made the shot he had a look in his eyes that you see from NBA superstars when they are locked in.

The most pivotal play was Miller’s three at the top with four minutes left in the game. That three took the Hornets from down 99-98 to up 101-99, the Hornets never trailed again after that shot.

Kid is a dog.

Got hot in the 4th quarter should have closed the game but Clifford the big red head took him out.

 

He's going to have to earn that starting spot but not a bad performance tonight. 

 

Mark Williams though that dude is the truth!

Appreciate the re-cap.  Steve Clifford is a clown.

Then Clifford decided to take him out.smh

 

He had the hot hand there is no telling how many more shots he would have made in crunch time. Hayward is a vet I get it, but he's not a better option than Brandon Miller. We should have let Miller close the game he had it going.

Agreed, I’d have gone Melo - Terry - Miller - PJ - Big Mark

    • I'm not sure 19 is too high for Rodriguez anymore.  He looks to be moving up boards, but it could be smokescreens.  
    • I see XL this way---great athlete.  Good person.  When we drafted him, we knew he was raw.  One year of WR in college (starting) and in HS, he was a QB, I believe. We knew we would need patience with him.  I think year 3 will be make or break.  He is older, and I think that people with his athletic ability have always been better than those with less---but those with less can become more successful.  Why is that?  in my view, it is mental. XL can learn the mechanics and nuances of playing WR if he becomes focused on it and works at it.  I had the opportunity to talk to Armanti Edwards one day after OTAs (great guy) and he discussed how overwhelming it was.  He seemed shocked.  At that time, I knew that Fox hated the pick (I heard him mock Armanti to another coach when he saw Edwards drop a punt from a jugs machine--then I saw Armanti look back at Fox as if to suggest that he was feeling the pressure to please the coach. We forget that these are kids in their early 20s.  At the time, Fox was a lame duck.  Remember when he had Clausen as the #3 QB and was forced to move him up the ladder?  I liked Fox, but I think the climate and culture was influenced by the politics.  Currently, I see another Wr from SC who is struggling, but he is ina  very nurturing, positive culture. Let's see what happens with XL.  I am frustrated too---but XL was a second round talent who was raw and we traded up to get him.  He had 500 yards as a rookie--lets call 2025 a sophomore slump and see if we can't get at least 50 yards per game out of him.  If not, cut bait.
    • Sadiq feels like a lazy comp.  Sure he would be a big improvement over what we have but at a position we don't and maybe can't (midget qb) utilize.  I hope the staff puts together a list of players you automatically take at 19 (Freeling, Lemon, Downs, Faulk) and if none are there, trade back to look at (Thieneman, McNeil-Warren, Proctor, Lomu, Allen, Iheanachor, Banks, Woods).  I get the people that think an OT would be a waste because we temporarily patched that hole, and ILB and safety are a waste because that is high to take those particular positions, but by trading back we get extra picks to fill every need.  A draft that has an OT, S, ILB, slot WR, and C would really put us in a good position moving forward if we get an extra first three rounds additional pick.
