I get it. I'm not down with Ayton either. But many in here and on the radio are. Just saying. Felix Flex, the Phoenix fan and NBA insider told the fellas on Rip City that he's heard stuff flowing around the possibility. But when he said , including the 3 pick, i was like, that's a big No Dog. Get real. Ayton has potential, that might really come out elsewhere. But if we included a pick, it's gonna be one of those future ones unlocked.

He basically said he was making it up...
 
After a first look through prospect video, Jarace Walker was a favorite of mine. One word -- "bouncy." He's a dude with size and length for forward, playing D, looking for other guys ... a baller. He has work to do, but he's also got several rookie level NBA skills. Comparisons to Paul Millsap don't do Walker's athleticism justice. There are 2-3 forwards with more ready made offense ... lanky guys who fit today's NBA. I've seen the trade proposals with Orlando of Wendell Carter Jr + 6 + 11 for Nurkic and 3. Normally, I'm not a fan of trading down -- at all -- but WCJ > Nurkic and getting Jarace Walker and Gradey Dick would be pretty fun, IMHO ... And this is one of countless reasons why I'm not a GM.

Simons and future firsts would then go after a ready made SF.
 
Going to need a physical center to unseat the top dogs in either conference.
Ayton has the body and skill its his head that needs a change. He's still only 24.
 


Note the placement of the Blazer hat

I really like that hat. With the raised lettering. I like Miller too, and he will be a great player for the Hornets. Unless he isn't, and they trade the pick to Brooklyn for Bridges.
 
I haven't read this whole thread. I'm sure someone's mentioned it. But Miller will be 21 as a rook, so it's OK to draft him.

Yeah he's an older prospect, just like Amen, I think he might even be a bit older than Sharpe. But he looks NBA ready with defense, shooting, and passing that should translate right away. His age would be more concerning if he had holes in his game like Scoot or Amen lack of shooting.
 
All possessions/plays by Brandon Miller , Alabama vs South Carolina. Includes his misses, fouls committed, turnovers.
41 points (14-25, 6-13 3-pointers, 7-8 free throws) , 8 rebounds.

I don't see a hat....what I see is the assumption he'll be drafted #2. But I don't translate tweets or Instagram well

"I have done Executive Protection for NBA /NFL players for many years and I must say that the #2 picked in this year NBA draft @brandmillerr and his family is one of the most respectful, honest, humble and close family that I had ever been around.

Time travel?

OK you got me convinced. Miller is going #2.

Miller is the other end of scoring efficiency compared to Scoot and Amen.
Fit may not be the right word. What does Charlotte NEED? They don't need a fantastic passer. They already have one. They need an efficient scorer who can get you 20-30 points a game.
Last season, LaMelo Ball was the only player who shot over 35% on 3-pointers (37.6%). (I'm not counting Svi, who is on his 6th NBA team.)
(Zero divided by zero is not 1.000. It's "undefined.")

If we were to trade down for #6/11, I'd like the length and both offensive and defensive versatility of Hendricks and the other Miller, Leonard. Shooting, passing, multi-positional offense and defense and LENGTH.

Efficient scorer who likes defense….why don’t we like him again? Because of a delusional 33 year old pg that thinks we are 1 player away?

Dame also thought Stotts was a great coach, CJ was a great running mate, Neil was a great GM, his cousin wasn't a joke of a two way player, and instead of learning to pass out of a trap when he got swept - he should spend the summer learning to heave 40 footers.

Dame should stick to playing basketball and let others do their jobs. Most underrated strength of guys like Duncan and Dirk - they didn't get in the organization way.

Not saying you're wrong at all, but I feel back in the Duncan/dirk hayday there wasn't nearly as much placating to the biggest star on the team as there is now. Back then maybe Lebron. Revisionist history is what I may be doing, because it's strictly based on memory and comparison to today's entitled era of basketball.
