Casual take. Blazers are one of the worst & slowest teams in the NBA right now. Scoot had to adjust, but if you look at the stats and games. Scoot has actually been IMPROVING. Hop off your knees, buy some new knee pads. Stop with the glaze.
@@justinwin-yj7kmYeah, but even with the recent numbers Scoot still isn’t playing that great. He’s playing alright for a rookie, but is inefficient while putting up decent numbers. Nothing special. And the Hornets are also one of the worst teams in the league. Usually one of the worst teams in the league would mean a rookie would put up BETTER numbers, but Scoot can’t even start half the time on a crappy Blazers team
@@joelco92 He’s been improving little aspects of his game. His playmaking has gotten 10x better, his pull-ups, 3’s & midrange have all been improving as well. You guys forget scoot was literally injured for a bit and was also sent to the G League to take time to recover and warm back up
@@justinwin-yj7kmScoot is absolutely awful and anyone in their right state of mind is taking Brandon Miller now and in the future for their teams.. Portland fans coping stupid hard right now 😂
A big reason as to why Brandon Miller was struggling during the summer league is because he was dealing with mono. He’s done a great job getting back into shape and showing those same flashes that he showed in high school and in college. Really excited for his future and hopefully he and LaMelo are the start of something amazing in Charlotte.
This years draft class has been a ton of fun to watch. Wemby, Brandon Miller, the Thompson twins, JJJ, Cason Wallace, Anthony Black, Derrick Lively and Cam Whitmore have all done really well
The hornets actually have a pretty bright future, they got lamelo, Brandon, mark williams, they will probably get a good pick this year. I mean they could be a good team in the future
They have a great chance the east is weaker then the west they just got to keep building around there young pieces getting rid of rozier was a great step an it gave miller more of the keys.
I think the issue lies more in their mentality, I do not think they have the drive to seriously compete for greater goals. The entire organisation seems rather lax...
as a hornets fan I dont care about his playmaking right now, if I see him pass up a mid range opportunity to give ish smith a look at 3 imma be mad lol
Hear me out. I didn’t see Paul George doing this his rookie year. Charlottes culture is bad, you start seeing a rookie yelling a vets for yolo D. I’m loving it. Could be a franchise changing player. By far our best asset
Fans need to stop dogging teams for not taking the "consensus" guy. We have seen it many times lately where a team gets shit on for doing this and then it turns out great. Even just recently brandon miller, scottie barnes, porzingis, Keegan Murray, all guys that were "terrible" picks at that spot that ended up great picks
Controversial but brandon miller should be the center piece for the sake of changing the culture of the franchise. Lamelo might be their best player but with miller they can establish a culture atleast
Keanu Benton really has a chance to become one of the best DTs in the league, he showed dominance at times against the run and the pass, I love that draft class as a Steelers fan
As someone who’s painfully watched every hornets game this year he has been consistently getting better all year. Month to month he makes noticeable progress. Early in the season he was turning the ball over a lot, and now his handle has tightened and the only time I’m happy with a hornets shot is when it comes from him because he feels like the only efficient player on the team. I was also a huge summer league doubter of him, but he has entirely proved me wrong and could be borderline all star level as soon as next year
Brandon Miller said Paul George was his GOAT for a reason. That's who he was watching all the time growing up as a kid. When you watch his play it becomes obvious. What a perfect player for him to model his game after with the frame he has.
I think that we are seeing the thunder effect come into charlotte where a team with high draft picks select multiple superstars like for example: kd at 2 harden at 3 and russ at 4 and they all become superstars
It hasn't been efficient? Dude has put up 23.6ppg on 48% FG with 39.5% 3pt and 87% FT over his last 10. For the Season he's on 44% FG and 38% from 3pt. That's pretty efficient for a rookie. Also never trust summer league. Monk came out and looked like the second coming of Jordan in his summer league. We all saw how that worked out.
Did you even watch any game of his at Bama. He was in a world of his own for 90% of the season. The dude has unlimited potential and after Oats system that keeps players lean to run offensively all game over he can now put on muscle and become an allstar
I think the hornets getting rid of terry basically handed him the second keys now they can build around lamelo and miller as the two future stars the problem is. Will the hornets be able to build a good team around them like okc did Shae.
Future reference for you. Do not take summary serious. Whether the player does good or bad do not take a seriously wait until they play an actual. NBA game before you cast. Judgment on them
Imo, Tucker was very biased against Brandon Miller. If he spent time watching Brandon Miller more times during summer league, he wouldn't have been so low on him early in the season.
Why did you slow down your speech when you “unveiled” your comp like it hasn’t been said before? It’s literally the only comp that has ever been made about Miller since he was a draft prospect.
Super hornets fan here but I have to say this video is a complete carbon copy of what everyone else is saying about BMill. There is no originality about it at all. It’s clear this is a Skoot fan that flipped up. Far as summer league BMill played 1 game poorly then got it together for the rest. Also BMill does hoop a lot like his idol PG but he’s also like Tatum.
I see Tracey McGrady in b miller. Similar shooting motion . But at year one b miller statistically is better. But maybe not as explosive and better all around but similar. I do see some paul George but not as much as I see t mac.
Hornets need to draft Reed Sheppard!!!! They’re terrible on defense. Maybe they get a first round pick come trade deadline and get another forward. In free agency they need to pickup some vets
This is the future core of the Charlotte hornets is LaMelo ball miles bridges Brandon Miller and Nick Smith Jr and everybody else is trade bait in Charlotte and maybe mark Williams. Trade for salary space and draft picks and I want the New owners of the Charlotte hornets to build a winning culture
@@eliezeralgarin1268 why won't he be as good as Tatum? Tatum has an almost uncanny ability to defend literally any player in the NBA at a high level His off ball defense is even better than on ball which is insane considering how good he is on the ball And offensively Tatum is just a lot more explosive
@@JaGra-tm2mw??Tatum is not more explosive than Brandon miller Not glazing but this kid is very quick for his size and he has posters already but Tatum is obviously the better offensive player just not more explosive.
@@anewrookiefreshman8716 Tatum is definitely more explosive that's millers only weakness is he's not very explosive and doesn't have that great of a first step
I’m a Hornets fan. I thought at the time that the Hornets should’ve picked Scoot. I always thought Brandon was gonna be a good player, but I saw Scoot as the better player and with a higher ceiling. It’s just one season, but so far it’s looking like MJ got it right for once. Beyond the skill and size, he also has a great mentality and energy, and that’s something this team desperately needs. You can see it in his body language and in how he competes, he’s got the “killer instinct.” He’s one of the few guys on the team who goes out every night and looks like he’s actually trying to get a win. The team seriously needs a full reconstruction tho, because we have about 5 guys right now (that aren’t injured)who actually belong on an NBA roster, the rest of them are basically g league guys
It’s channels like this that cause the overrating of players. This entire era is full of overrated stars because of media hype and podcasters. Let the man play a season or two before he is crowned anything. He didn’t make the leap. He just had a couple good games. When he does it night in, night out..then say that. Stop helping to ruin careers by helping to create a narrative of ability that has yet to be consistently proven.
Brandon Miller has said on Podcast P that he did look up to Paul George and did model his game at least partially on PG's game
He even said PG is his goat
@darkest64 That's what I was thinking im sure Miller said that.
Miller is better than scoot the hornets got it 110 percent right
Drafting scoot would’ve made no sense you already got your point😂

They have a very solid young squad. Issue is, Lamelo seems to be hurt even more than Zion.
@@johngerbino4188yea they would be good healthy with lamelo terry and miller
@@johngerbino4188 i think lamelo isnt really injured since he came back last january. They already forfeited the season it is so obvious

I think the issue lies more in their mentality, I do not think they have the drive to seriously compete for greater goals. The entire organisation seems rather lax...
The Paul George comparison is not only accurate, but it’s exactly the kind of player the Hornets needed to pair with Lamelo. They nailed this pick.

Once he adds muscle 💪 bro going be insane
BHM doesn’t stand for Black History Month
It stand for Brandon Heath Miller my boyyyy
I see a lot of Brandon Ingram
Very similar build
Brandon is KD Jr.
He’s has a bright future ahead of him
Miller as of right now looks like a future franchise cornerstone

Dang man a young Paul George wow what a original take, I’ve never heard that comparison
Exactly bros acting like that hasn’t been said a 1000 times
Controversial but brandon miller should be the center piece for the sake of changing the culture of the franchise. Lamelo might be their best player but with miller they can establish a culture atleast
Im from charlotte and i knew scoot would be micheal kidd ghilcrist 2.0 from the beginning
Talking like scoot is a bust in his rookie season is beyond me
@@ynk-ikehe has espn brain don't mind him
Without Wemby I fully believe that Brandon Miller could be the 1st pick. As he got his confidence the guy is showing that MJ nailed it in this draft
Guys who didn’t even watch college basketball was clamoring over scoot to go to hornets
Wow a young Paul George?! You’re the first to make this take for sure !

Great vid, I feel like this stuff is your best area, and passion.

Paul George is the comparison I had for him well before he was drafted
Why is this channel so underrated

He reminds me of Sheen from Jimmy Neutron lol :^)

Charlotte just needs to be healty and they are capable of being black horse in the playoffs
You are right he also has an assist in a killin.
I don’t think his handles will ever be as tight as PG, Brandon Ingram sounds like a better comp to me
As a hornets fan I also wanted scoot, but boy am I glad I was wrong!
LaMelo Ball, Brandon Miller backcourt duo 🔥 🏆
Paul George also wore 24! :D
Do they not have miles bridges anymore?
He's already better that Paul George was in his first year.
Bro showing his February stats like we ain’t 6 days into the month not even a whole week 🤣
All the Brandon Miller haters real quiet 👀
Trade LaMelo for Steph
Bruh, ever since college, he's been compared to PG, nothing new or significant about that 💀
Remember when hornets fans booed him getting drafted over scoot
Miller did say Paul George was his goat
Weren’t Hornets fans mad when they didn’t get scoot? Must be eating their words
I'm not a Lamelo fan, I don't think he plays winning basketball. And I don't Miller is a SG, he's a natural 3, but can play a hybrid 4 in today's NBA.
I think the hornets getting rid of terry basically handed him the second keys now they can build around lamelo and miller as the two future stars the problem is. Will the hornets be able to build a good team around them like okc did Shae.
Entitled Hornets fans still booing him?
Brandon Miller in my opinion is more like Brandon Ingram than Paul George. I get the similarities but I think Miller isn't as refined defensively
c'mon bro how you gonna call Bridges a G league player 🤣 man just had 41 and is averaging 21+ppg
you misheard him.
I see a future pg 13 in him he just has to get a ring
Bridges and Gordon for Darius Garland?
Better offensively than George
Future reference for you.
Do not take summary serious.
Whether the player does good or bad do not take a seriously wait until they play an actual.
