Oh we know. Scoot is the best. But let’s not act like Brandon Miller is a bum. They’re both very good so far, I’m just thrilled because I always liked scoot more because of millers Sketchy college past.
Hornets fans are some of the most chill and knowledgeable fans in the league from what I’ve seen. I hope for their team to have some success and I hope Miller is a good player for them (but i hope scoot is better haha).
Miller is a G, too. Maybe if we got him Dame is still here. You can’t change the past or predict how the chips fall.
This is an article about a dozen tweets. The future sucks
Hey—let’s give Brandon Miller some time. Fans of other teams probably watch Shaedon Sharpe and think the same thing.

(but, yes, they absolutely fumbled the bag here, lol)
Imagine writing an article making judgments based on fans reactions to a preseason debut on twitter 🤦♂️
The hornets GM had absolutely nothing to do with drafting Miller. Was entirety Jordan’s call.
Could write even worse about Jerami Grant signing a fat contract then scoring 0 pts w 2 TOs against an NBL team
7 people tweeted he’s a bust? Guess that settles that.
Miller is going to be fine. Is he maybe a bit lost? Possibly. But let’s not act like the jump isn’t a huge leap. The expectation is absurd and very few shine right out of the gates, and those who do tend to be surrounded with help. Let’s give him the season and see how he develops before we write the narrative.
Fans probably saying that a lot lately about Sharpe after how he looked in Summer League and last night’s preseason game vs a non-NBA team
Hope they and Miller turn it around
Eh, Sharpe didn’t look much better last night. I ain’t worried about either of them. It’s one freaking pre-season games
A bit early to say who is better. Check back in 5 years lol
Generally you draft players with the hope and expectation that within a span of multiple years they’ll provide value to your team.
Are we really giving a ROOT Sports what Brandon Miller is doing in his first preseason game?
Wayyyyy too early to say this.
I don’t get why people assume Miller is going to wash out or that somehow Scoot having a better career is a given.
It isn’t.
We would have been happy with Miller, too, if they took Scoot. I guarantee it.
Garbage article, click bait.
They didn’t even play him with melo yet. Miller was on the court with frank ntilikina. They should wait until he plays with the starters to make comments like that he was on the court with a young bench lineup, obv he’s not going to carry them.
Hornets should have drafted Scoot and moved Lamelo to SG. Glad they are dumb
They drafted for need and not talent. If it was talent scoot would be a hornet. That’s just facts.
Shit like this is so corny. He hasn’t even played a regular season NBA game. People need to give it time before they call him a bust.
