After seeing the schedule release 5-15 seems more probable....

8-12

Diabate does all the things Jake Stephen doesn't do; defend, switch, run the floor and get second chance opportunities.

Mavs fan here, Josh will also bring some playoff experience.

Appreciated your work and content as always. I like the move for the Charlotte hornets. You plug Josh green to the two guard with LaMelo ball miles bridges and Brandon Miller and Mark Williams the future is getting better in Charlotte

Hopefully, now, with the King's. Guess it takes a~while.

A low key good move by them

Some observations from someone who had watched a lot of their games since Green's rookie year: The mavs at one point had been using him to bring the ball down so he can definitely dribble. He can initiate the offense by penetrating but it's often by relying on his speed and athleticism, not on making reads like luka and kyrie do. If he can improve in this aspect it would be great for him because he can definitely pass, he had made so many great assists throughout his time in Dallas you would sometimes feel like he's as amazing to watch as luka. This guy is malleable I think he's been able to imitate some of luka's style of play. He excelled in running/athletics in his younger years, having been selected to represent his home state in 9 different sports when he was 10. No wonder he is super athletic and his favorite basketball move is to sprint in transitions. As every mavs fan knows everyone on the team had to defer to luka and kyrie so there's not a lot of shots to go around. He supplements his 3 point "rations" (3.3 attempts/game, which he converts at a high rate) by literally scavenging for his own shot opportunites, mainly with steals, offensive rebounds and scoring on fastbreaks. There was a point before the Mavs' new acquisitions when he led the league in 3point percentage and if I remember correctly he was routinely scoring 12 or so points a game. But that was before Kyrie came to Dallas. During the 2022-23 season he was on a good trajectory, was a confident starter converting 53.7% of his field goals and 40.2% on threes. This guy is good just give him a better role.

Great analysis, I absolutely love this pick up, he fits like a glove and it really speaks to how aligned the FO is with the coaching staff. Also I couldn’t help but notice how similar josh’s style of play is to Salaun, both are physical high motor transition players that can shoot with tremendous perimeter defense upside. This is how you create an identity as a team.

Green is stationary at the 3 because that’s how the Mavs offense is designed lol…Probably because of how iso heavy they are but Guys are supposed to just stand in the corner. That’s literally been every role player, wing in the Luka era.

Hornets have never picked an international guy in the top 10 to my knowledge. We usually pick an upperclassman college guy who has instant effect on the team, but no major upside. Morrison, Kaminsky, Zeller... Im so glad we didnt pick Dalton. We had to switch it up. Salaun is a great pick. We have a developmental staff. Lee has coached Giannis and Tatum. He knows what it takes. For this draft... hes the youngest, has a great wingspan, Best motor, willing to learn, hard worker, Better shooter than Castle, Clingan, Matas, Holland, Sarr, etc... It is a reach... we reaching for the stars. not the play in. I LOVE THIS PICK.

The hornets did trade kobe for vlade which allowed them to get shaq

The alonzo mourning trade was bigger

Spurs were going to pick him at 8.

Watching this the morning after, the piece that was missing for us all, was the fact that Tidjane had worked out with Charlotte, obviously on the down low, and just how INTENTIONAL this #6 pick was and this new owner group/coach, especially with the early presser, last night, is not the Hornets of old. Can't wait for the July 6th summer game with the Spurs, so we can know, what they know. Peterson reaction: ruclips.net/video/n-h671myd34/видео.htmlsi=fkzhXUSThMDlo6Fw

I like how they are like " I don't think this is the best pick" and then admit that they haven't watch very much film on him lol....watch the film guys! It's obvious thus is a great pick

I know its Hornets culture to hate your pick (lol) but i definitely like it. Maximize your assets with a Miles sign and trade and get Salaun on the court in year one. Future first and a vet. We are aiming for success in 2027 - 2029 and beyond. 3 years in 30 pounds heavier and shooting 80% from the line and 37% from 3... Sal could be goooood. I see him as Sochan now, with higher upside. And lord knows we need some hard working players in Charlotte... Hes also another transition threat for Melo

Bro spent 2 days in charlotte and had workouts with them, idk where y’all been getting your info.

I called the Tidjane Salaun pik weeks ago. I was initially on the Ron Holland bandwagon until I noticed he has tunnel vision and questionable basketball IQ. But I saw in Salaun the gifts Holland had (high motor + athleticism) in addition to mamba mentality and good basketball IQ. But he needs to tighten his handles

He's like a poor man's (French) Blake Griffin (looks) with better PJ Washington - Tools, and a motor like young Miles. I'm not mad at all!

It’s Devin Carter

DARON HOLMES from DAYTON Stretch 4/5!

The is a draft to go for upside... Risacher, Castle, Sarr, Salaun, Tyler Smith, Cody Williams, Knecth, Topic are all players im cool with. Im out on Holland (shot), Reed (height), Clingan (offensive package), Dillingham (weight). The Hornets' future should consists of Tall Ballers that can shoot and defend.

I want : Sheppard, castle, knecth, clingan, holland. In that order @ 6. I also want hornets to trade up from 42 to get Zach edey who I think is around 15-25 range.

Good takes on these 4 players. Thanks I am hoping that the Rockets get Reed.

Nikola Topic would be a perfect fit for the charlotte hornets.

Sheppard/risacher wont be there at 6 I dont think but Clingan/Knecth might. I would prefer Knecth and somehow if we could move up from 42 to like 18-25 and try to get Edey that would be perfect to get those 2 guys.

I actually like him

One thing to consider with Holland from 3pt land, is that he was also shooting at the NBA 3pt line vs what others did in college.

Dalton kinecth is my pick

Appreciated your work and content as always. I really think that Charlotte hornets will have a interesting problem to have and I think Jeff Peterson Rick schnall and Gabe plotkin needs to draft front Court players and depth.

Appreciated your work and content as always. This is a huge off-season for the Charlotte hornets from top to bottom in Charlotte

been really impressed with Mann so far, he can do a bit of everything on the court and looking forward to see how he develops next season

Another great podcast fellas, the early signs are looking good on Brandon Miller, hopefully he can hve a decent finish to his rookie season

Great podcast fellas, looking forward to see what changes are made in the offseason, hopefully we have a decent draft in the summer

"promosm" 😝

cliff runs iso ball and doesnt push the players

cliff has gotta go im sorry

mann is too ball dominate to be elite honestly... i like him though but i think we could package him and mark williams for something nice though. he is a great 6th man imo

He rebounds better than almost anyone on the team. Same size as Donavon Mitchell, Dewayne Wade, Terry Rozier. Cody Martin and Micic are on a different time-line age wise to the Ball/Miller core.

Brian of course i'i's dangerous to take today's data and predict something one, five or ten years out. Many NBA player evaluators are gelling around the importance of "positional size" and the "ability to switch" on defense. These are two hurdles that Scoot can deal with but never fully over come. His size is his size. Age and team can and will change.

I would ask Brian to free his tourtured soul. By simply saying "Scoot has been bad, so far" . The Portland team is different than Charlotte? Who are trying to kid, both are bad. Just qualify with "so far" and move on. Also you can say" I was wrong about Miller. He is much better than I thought he would be, so far." Your pride in ownership of player evals is just silly. It's a guess sometimes you miss. Let it go.

Guys who didn't dig in and scout the draft picks are surprised how they perform in the NBA.

People was rating Scoot as a generational talent. I never seen Scoot as a better talent than Fultz coming out his rookie year. To think some analysts had him over Westbrook in his prime lol.

It's funny how you guys planted the flag for Scoot before the season and now the season almost over they have the nerve to say it too early. Scoot had 2 more season in G league and you guys said Scoot was the most NBA ready.

I respect richie perspective. I remember him being stern on scoot to see him give miller his props that's showing me more than some other Podcasters that I hear. I like scoot but charlotte needed and needs moving forward size and bm is him

A whole lot of nothing...

My hornets need to pick 2024 NBA draft : Caleb Love ! Another option for lamelo and the team overall to be more competitive ! 2025 NBA draft pick : bell out of Syracuse ! First round don't care at what pick for us !

I like scoot Henderson had scoot first as our pick but Miller was the guy

time to trade melo and mark honestly - miller is gonna be all nba i think -- idc what happens w scoot im riding w miller -- he is our guy!
