Giving Miller the max will absolutely devastate this franchise.

If he has a killer season and we make it to the playoffs then sure. He needs to earn it.

I mean I was half joking, but there is a chance he can actually make the all-star team this year with the injuries in the East. If he can be our 2nd best player and we are in the playoffs race it's not unrealistic we can get 2 all-stars this year.

Saying that given his injury history and the way we use him on offense I'm not expecting that to happen.

I think he gets close to the max, but not the full max.

Would you trade Miller for Daniels?

I think I would but I’m biased

Nope not with this current roster.

We need Miller's scoring more than a elite defender. Now if Kon surprises and proves to be a consistent offensive player then I would revisit this down the line.

But right now I rather have Miller.

for reference, our worst stretch appears to be for 4 drafts from 2014-17. Vonleh, PJ Hairston, Frank, [traded for Belinelli on draft night lol]. Monk, Bacon.

Memphis had a very similar stretch during the Grit n Grind era though, they turned all the drafts between the good picks of Mike Conley (2007) and JJJ (2017) into absolutely nothing.

The Bucks are secretly a terrible organization who were blessed with an ATG player.

To be fair, majority of these picks have been non-lottery picks and they also traded away a lot of firsts for Jrue and Dame so not really the same as someone like the Hornets who consistently have missed on lottery picks and having multiple swings some years.

The ending of this video is a thing of beauty. Also, we're old.

The thing I most remember about the NBA on NBC is that the Hornets were actually good back then and not the joke of the league. Bring back our 90's Hornets!

That was my childhood. Remember that music while I was at my grandma's house. I still remember MJ's shot vs the Jazz.

20 minutes 8 points and the rockets trust him to d up Shia with the game on the line. Just a ridiculous cut. He had to want out, right?
