I went to the Hornets game against the Lakers....and Brandon Miller was phenomenal. He has a lot of potential. Hornets did the right pick.
I was also at that game….. Potential is through the roof..
My reason for watching Charlotte Hornets is Vasilije Micic.
@@Zemlja_je_ravna He's a great player. He wasn't on the team when I saw them player against the Lakers tho.
I bet the fans that booed MJ for picking him over Scoot feel a lot less bitter about it now.
I dont know why they booed it to begin with honestly
@@Dudesaidthatagreed, I never thought that was particularly close, tbh. I small guard who can't shoot? Pass.
@@josephrafferty6763scoots jumper is improving, they’re all improving rookies
As a lifelong Bobcats/Hornets fan we just had Bridges situation and most of what fans were worried about was the off court thing with B Mill when we didn’t know enough. Glad to say we finally and I mean finally hit with a massive pick at #2. Wouldn’t be surprised if eventually he’s first option with Lamelo #2
@@socialworker6821as a hornets fan, i couldn’t agree more
As a Hornets fan, thank you JJ 🤝🐝
Brandon Miller is good but he needs to work on his professionalism. Dude is so egotistical and a "me first" type of guy
@@deecee2174 false
@@ItsShook Have you seen his interviews?? He almost NEVER mentions his teammates helping his success, yet he's right quick to talk highly about his gameplay, not the team's gameplay, but what HE does and tbh it's distasteful
Thats literally the whole hornets squad😂@deecee2174
@@Sagnasty17right until the trade deadline brandon and miles were the Hornets 😂 bro just yappin
Brandon game is so versatile. Im not a homer. If you look at his game. He's unguardable. No weaknesses. Great mid range shooter, good 3 point shooter and great free throw shooter.
How are his handles? Could he run point guard with no problems? Sounds like you're describing a young Brandon Roy.
@@mainframe4051Already great for his position. Could be like Tatum or George running their offenses without being true pgs. I don’t think he’ll ever be a guy taking the ball up every possession.
And will donk on you 😂😂
Thanks JJ!! We rarely get talked about it so we appreciate it. Hornets fans are just waiting for a winning team man I promise.
melo's injury scary is history. he deosn't look like he's built for an 82 game season
@@biggestbullsfan8569that will change. The team is getting a new medical staff. I expect Melo to get his health in order.
“We” bro are you on the team? He ain’t talking about you
@@Bhubnipz nice bro!
@@Bhubnipzrelax🤣
Thank you! We need more talk about Brandon Miller!
YES! Miller doesn't get enough credit or recognition thank you!
Cause he team sucks.
He’ll be better leader than lamelo
I kind of sensed that but Scoot still has time to develop
The sec saw this coming. On a loaded Alabama team full of offensive talent and especially guard talent, a 6’8 freshman wing ran the offense
Roll Tide
He was phenomenal and still performed during the low time.
They weren't that loaded...
@@jr10spro2 top 8 draft picks 😂
@@jr10spro They were the number 1 overall seed and the leftovers from that team made the final 4.
I was happy Charlotte got him. Brandon Miller , Lamelo, and Miles Bridges are great piece
Don't count Williams out. Nick Richards is good off the bench, but Williams is a good starter at the 5 to be so young
Mann?! Are you not paying attention?!
@@jr10spro i legit expected him and Williams to try and get out of CLT. Huge huge upgrades from hardly ever play Hayward, and out of position PJ.
Also kinda excited for James Nnaji who likely be in CLT or our g league team next year. I like Richards off the bench, but the little bit we got to see of Nnaji last pre season remind me of a bigger Dennis Rodman. Guy battled for boards like his life on the line lol. Size and tenacity is there to be a good rotational piece if he can get coached up
He has a competitiveness that Charlotte hasn't had in a rookie since maybe even Zo. You can see the difference in demeanor between him and Melo when they play
They couldn’t mess up everything forever 😂
cap
Facts tho. I’m bout ready to say ship melo off if they not tryna make him play the 2 cus he still don’t care enough or play serious enough to run the 1 and win.
@@jbpcow2212 the team is literally at its best when he’s playing the 1, you mfs do not watch basketball 😂 putting him at the 2 would be a hornet move tho
Dudes act like Lamelo wasn’t averaging 30 and 10 for like 10 straight, earlier in the year
Brandon Miller is filling that void
I always think of Legler putting Skip in his place 😂. “You’re telling me with your lying eyes! …”
Yea Hornets fans you guys definitely have one in Brandon Miller y’all should be vey excited
I do enjoy when JJ Redick has Tim Legler on for these discussions. Tim's breakdowns and analysis is top notch! Brandon Miller got his shot blocked so often in pre season that I was worried he would not get to this point in his development, but now he is doing so much better.
Please continue to show the plays that you are referencing 🙏🏾 adds a ton to the vid! Great Analysis
Correct, Hornets have been rubbish to watch this year, but since the trade deadline, they've been a different team altogether. It's only been 2 games so far, but having actual rotational NBA players, not G league call ups makes a huge difference. They just kept the best offence in the NBA who was at full strength to 102 points whilst winning the game, minus their max contract superstar guard and their very solid starting centre
Lmao right in these last 2 games we became title contenders let us tell it
i love when these two breaking down players and the game
Eric Collins is the reason to watch Charlotte
Miller is the only reason
@victormuhammad1393 must not have been watching then cause Miles, Mann, Grant, and a few others worth watching. Why talk when you don't know 💩?!
One OF the reasons! Mann, Miles, Miller, etc all worth watching!
It’s really nice to have anything to cheer for in Charlotte. It’s been such a rough stretch here. After the trades we just made we’re a different team now. If melo and mark Williams can get healthy and continued phenomenal play from miller and miles plus the players that we got from the recent trades (mann, vicic, Seth curry, Patrick Williams) I have really high hopes for this team
i just simmed 20 years in 2k and brandon miller finished with 34k points and 4 rings.
I love this type of videos about young players / rookies! Keep it up!
Look at jj man so inspirational
Finally this kid gets some love. We love the hornets in Charlotte. But they get no buzz bc we are just not there yet, so we get no media love.
People surprised by Brandon millers play couldn’t have watched him in college cause it was clear his game could easily translate to the NBA
yea i’m blaming malika andrews 😂
You underestimate how many people want nothing to do with even talking about this murderer.
@@mattrider2669good thing you're not a judge, Jesus. It's know he did not pull the trigger he was there. Don't hate a person because the media tells you to. Learn information about the incident before you make outrageous statements. Carry on
Hornets has a good core of players with Ball, Miller, Bridges, Mark Williams and now some veterans with experience just came via trade, they just need a good coach to be relevant. If I am the Hornets manager I would do everything in my power to get Budenholzer.
Trade bridges and Seth curry for Jaden ivy
@@tylermanning1600 do u see a good fit between Ivey and Ball?
I don't
To me, Ivey is a point guard. He need's to have the ball in his hands to be productive.
I see him as a good fit in Orlando, San Antonio and Toronto.
@@tylermanning1600lol Bridges is so much better than Ivey, Bridges is averaging like over 20 ppg and Seth is an awesome bench piece. That’s a horrible trade for the Hornets they would be getting scammed
That would never happen. I think Detroit would have to throw Ausar in the deal and charlotte send another player for money matching purposes. But charlotte ain't giving miles up for ivey straight up.
new vet is Micic double Euro Mvp,,New team looks great even without Melo they win 3 in a row
I never got why people thought a having Scott as 6’2 2 guard off the ball would be better option than Brandon Miller
Bc you have some people who thought they would draft scoot and have him as the 2 on offense but plays against the 1 on Def. Would not have worked with 2 guards who neither excels in on ball defense. Bmiller was always my choice after we found out we missed out on number 1 pick. He is exactly what the hornets needed. A wing who after putting on some muscle can play 4 positions if needed. A player who can develop into a great defender who can shoot and handle the ball.
Hornets fans for ya
@@Iaintsayinnothin..bro what everyone was saying that, and as a hornets fan who was happy with the Brandon pick i feel so justified
I guess the Hornets fans wanted another explosive guard like the Baron Davis years?
Love this kind of breakdown and analysis of players and the game.
I became a fan when he said Paul George was his GOAT. PG is my favourite player and boy is this kid smooth with it. One of my new favourite new gen players.
+1 for P.G
P.G games is so smooth & fluid it looks like he's playing easy mode and not giving max effort, but he is.
As a Hornets fan, it’s been a long time coming. I hope he develops more and more quietly and take over in the next few years🐝
I use to watch Hornets game because of Larry Johnson,
now I watch it again because of Ball & Miller.
Watch because of Mann, Miller, and Melo now...
Miles bridges been balling also
When he's not beating up women.
Since the trade deadline, the hornets have looked impressive and actually fun to watch. Completely different team now.
I'm glad you had this discussion, because I feel like collectively, fans have forgotten about Brandon Miller! All the media hype has been on Wemby and Chet (and for good reason!) so I didn't even realize Miller was doing so well. I like Charlotte's recent trades to get two local role players in Seth and Grant. Charlotte looks like they're finally making the right moves.
Celtics fan .. but bro is tuff 🔥 can’t wait to see him in 2 years
"They're not worth watching"...........update they are looking much better after the trade, and I'm a Heat fan.
Hornets just casually going 2/2 after they are able to use the trade deadline players
He reminded me of Kendall Gill, Rudy Gay, Paul George, Mixed with a lil Penny and Robert Horry. He is very underrated.
I'm telling you, this rookie class is the gift that keeps on giving
Good authentic basketball breakdowns . Thank you
They keep saying there is no reason to watch Charlotte meanwhile I’ve watched the entirety of every game this season 😭
Kemba picture, respect 🫡
Thank you. Brandon Miller is a Beast. 💪🏿 615 Nashville TN
This is why I fw JJ ! I’m glad he’s getting some acknowledgment ! The kid has been balling
Let's go Coach!! Charlotte needs you!!
I'm not the biggest NBA fan, but I do like to watch college basketball and I liked what I saw from Brandon Miller grom the few games I watched. As a NC native, it'd be nice to see the Hornets have some consistent successful years with great talent.
Been a Brandon Miller fan since he was going undrafted in 2k21 MyLeague custom draft classes. Love that he's actually good IRL as well
Lamelo is the reason to watch the hornets. He’s so good
Yeah but he’s been hurt
The trades they made did a lot for me to watch them as a team
Need you on First Take JJ !
Brandon Miller's potential being even greater than anticipated is such an intriguing topic, especially with experts like Tim Legler and JJ Redick discussing it! Miller has already shown impressive skills, and it's exciting to think about how much further he can go in his career. The insight from former professional players like Legler and Redick always adds a valuable perspective, as they can relate to the journey and growth of an athlete. It's always fascinating to hear about rising talents in sports and how they're surpassing expectations. What a thrilling time for fans to watch an athlete's evolution and achievements! 🌟🏀
I feel like the best part of being a fan of any bad team is being there for the times they might be making a comeback. Just being able to see the process.
Miller is so much closer to Wemby than Chet is. He should be the one behind Wemby in the ROTY race
Uhhh no
It feels good hearing yall talk about my squad 🐝🐝🐝🏀
2-0 since the trade deadline and outplayed Pacers. There is something worth watching, just unfortunate they had injuries. If they had 25 wins right now they would have a play in chance. Traded the glass man for 3 underrated players and 2 picks and a 6th man for an equally strong 6th man and a fantastic shooter. Even got 2 future first and off of Roziers money. And now Mitch is gone. Been an awesome week for Hornets fans
As for Brandon, I fell in love with his game when he was at Alabama. 5 level scorer with defensive upside and he seems hungry to get better and stronger. He shoots like a certain Duke legend 😅 I have compared him to Tatum in the past. Would be rookie of the year most years and I agree he has All-NBA potential
Miller has been balling!
I definitely appreciate this segment because i been saying since day one that this kid looks like star. He’s the only reason i watch any charlotte highlights lol. He hasn’t even developed a great handle yet neither has he started lifting weights fr yet so he can definitely be the real deal in a few years!
2:39 I love the break down
Omg a future multiple time allstar for sure
I’m a Hornets fan and I was very impressed with B.Miller’s rookie season. If he continues to work hard, he’ll be a damn good player one day real soon.
Hornets got another one right , they have a nice young core now with Melo , Bmiller & Miles Bridges … the new addition grant Williams is a solid 4 who can play great defense n knock down corner 3s plus he gives them some toughness & now he has a serious chip on his shoulder ; idk who their center is but if they even have an average one that can rebound and defend the paint that’s a good 5 ! And then Seph as the 6th man who can come in , score in bunches plus run the offense at times or when they play small he can play alongside Melo as a shooter
Mark Williams is the center he has a back injury rn tho
Great to see Miller getting the recognition he deserves. If people knew his ceiling was this high, Scoot would not have been in the conversation at 2. Hornets got it right. He is exactly what they needed.
was excited to hear about my boy get praise and this dude dissed my team 3 seconds into the vid🤦♂️😂
"buy his stock" .... when you said this all i heard was "buy his sports cards".
I was really just looking up his cards before reading this comment
Sheesh man we almost didn’t get to see bruh play fr. Glad he’s hoopin so far
Scoot Henderson cut his airballs per game down from 3 to 2. Blazer fans are very excited about this progress.
Lmaooo
I will say this...since the trade deadline that the hornets won is a very good sound basketball team with real NBA players that doesn't hog the ball and passes the ball around like a team is suppose to. New look New hornets!
Thank god they giving my guy some love he really is cold
Best basketball podcast by far.
i think you need to talk about scoot and should notify the people who booed brandon during draft night lol
At this point they need to do a Co ROTY for Chet and Wemby. one has the potential to be one of the greatest, the other making a big impact for one of the best teams in the NBA
Also the Hornets got better since the deadline so they might be a team to watch soon
yeah charlotte actually have competent players now so the ball is getting shared a lot more so expect the drop in millers counting stats
Oh come on. You didn't enjoy G-Leaguers starting and getting significant minutes (Black & Nik Smith Jr)? Both got sent down to Greensboro yesterday. Lol.
He will be real good
I'm not surprised at all. Everyone gave this kid a lot of flak for not immediately having it all figured out. But he's got a great place to grow and I think the future might be brighter than we anticipate for Charlotte. For their sake, I hope I'm right.
“No reason to watch Charlotte” i love brandon, he’s probably our savior, however Melo and Bridges when they play together is beautiful
I’m glad someone else pointed out the similarities to Tatum, it’s almost uncanny if you watch Tatums rookie highlights they played so similarly. If Miller continues to develop this way he will be a star
The fans that booed the Brandon Miller pick are stupid. Why would you draft another ball dominant guard when you already have LaMelo??? Brandon Miller can play off ball and he can actually shoot it really well. Miller can be really great if he just improves his defense.
Wemby and Chet are NOT neck and neck anymore. Vic has gone nuclear while Chet has come back down to earth
I get it, Miller has been playing phenomenal but don't discredit the others. Mann is playing well, Micic, Grant is elevating this team with his grit & hustle + his ability to space the floor & don't forget Miles bridges come on now
As a hornets fan ill admit my draft takes are terrible. I wanted monk over donovan mitchell, i wanted scoot over miller. Just glad Brandon Miller is looking like a great pick!
Man I was big on Monk before the draft but he still hasn’t lived up to the monster he was at UK
Myself to myself: he reminds of Tatum in certain situations
Legs: he reminds me of Tatum on on ball screens
Me: 😃😃😃🥲 3:30
i noticed he been ballin too
Iced Cold Miller.
Brandon miller is clearly the second best rookie behind wemby lol. Glad yall came to y’all’s senses, you guys absolutely TRASHED us at the draft for taking him. I knew scoot would be a bust
I was there at the Draft. Wemby gets picked. Biggest pop in the arena. Miller gets picked, a few claps, not much noise, just eh. Scoot gets picked. Big pop. Thompson brothers big pop. Everyone is looking stupid at this point.
Scoot can’t even shoot the 3 ball at a high clip idk why ppl were so high on him 😂
Been saying it!
If lamelo can ever get healthy & if they get a new coach the hornets might have a core to build around
Miller, Williams, LaMelo, bridges, and throw in some of the new guys they brought in plus lots of draft capital…. Honestly they could be decent for the first time in forever if it goes right
@@Harrison244don’t forget mark, when we had mark williams we were a top defence post all star break last year and he has much better hands and gravity then nick richard’s. i expect playin - playoff experiences in the coming years
As A Hornets/Chapel Hill Fan ... f#ck you JJ. Good podcast tho. 😅
Amen 😂😂😂
Don't forget about Miles Bridges.
MJ knocked it out the park at his last at bat.
I know they were talking current player comps, but going outside of that limitation, he reminds me of a young T-Mac
I been saying he’s more Tatum than PG as of now
Well, they made his charges go away, so he must be really talented
FINALLY LET THE CHURCH SAY AMEN
😂
Def expected. Dude's swagger reminiscent of Ant.
Brandon Miller is who we thought Cam Reddish was going to be
Miller will be the best player from his draft class at the end of the day.
Cap
For a brief fleeting moment at the end I thought JJ was going to call out Malika Andrews. He should have.
Once Lamelo comes back after all star break, he’s going to give you another reason to watch the Hornets
He knew what he was doing 😂
11:14 after sums it up pretty well, They are developing while Chet is contributing to wins.
This team now that we have made a few trades got a solid backup point guard. ( who can fully start) in Mann and gotten rid of Hayward. Seth Curry is a hitter off the bench. This team is turning it around. We could make the play in the tournament. I don't think we are able to make a strong push against some of these other teams, but people are sleeping on them
I am a Hornets season ticket holder (yes, pray for me), but Brandon isn’t the only reason to watch the Hornets. LaMelo and Bridges are also reasons to watch. Mark Williams is a difference maker, so is Nik Richards . I just wish LaMelo would shoot less and work on his shot, period, in the summers. The problem with the Hornets is that there are no vets in the locker room.
Another comp that may be laughed at but his mentality and approach to the game is reminiscent of kobe. There i said it
Me too both of them preseason dunk
JJ Reddick I hope you're next guest is Jaylen Brown 😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤😤
Jj I would love to see Grayson Allen on from the duke lore to how he’s transformed himself into such a great role player just think it would be a great interview
