So we’re not passing on Scoot in this scenario?

No, what people are saying is that if Wembanyama is tier 1, and Scoot and Miller are together in tier 2, then you take the better fit. You’re acting like there’s no debate who is the better prospect. I just looked at 4 big boards, not mock drafts, 2 had Scoot at 2, 2 had Miller at 2. It is, at the very least, debatable. If it’s close, you take the better fit who doesn’t force you to move on from your other top 3 pick. That’s a huge negative in return on Scoot. I’d rather trade the #2 pick to the Rockets for a haul than take Scoot and trade Lamelo for not even close to what he should be worth. Or, you take the SF with Paul George comps because true star SFs allow you to compete for championships.

Agree with this. From what I’ve read, Scoot did not continue to improve as much as expected this year, so Miller caught up to him.

Yeah Miller played better than projected and Scoot kind of stayed put from where he was last year (which was still very good).

We didn’t miss on Kobe. Had him but caved to pressure. Kobe said he would have played in Charlotte. Possibly the worst draft trade in history. Divac haunts me still lol

I thought the whole thing was that there was zero chance Kobe ever suited up for the Hornets, and we drafted him with the express purpose of trading him to the Lakers?

His agent wanted a big market team for him, but Kobe stated he would have played for Charlotte.  I think we were tricked....

I'm sure he also told his wife he didn't cheat on her also, or sexually assualt that girl. Every story at the time was he refused to play here. Let's stop pretending that he was an honest and upstanding guy.

    • One has a proven, offensive-minded, Super Bowl winning head coach along with a top 5 OL + defense. He's being protected and getting the ball back not having to chase the other teams. The other had Frank Reich + Thomas Brown their rookie year with a bottom 5 defense as well as a bottom 5 OL that gave up the 2nd most sacks against a rookie QB ever. The sophomore season is being ran with a top 5 OL but also with a rookie HC (that has just one year of OC experience) and a bottom 5 defense still. The Broncos defense has allowed over 20pts just three times this season (26 vs. SEA (L), 23 vs. LAC (L), 41 vs. BAL (L)). Meanwhile, the Panthers have had ONE game where the defense gave up less than 20pts (vs. NYG (W)).   I'm not sure how folks couldn't expect Bo Nix to statistically perform better given their incredibly different situations. With that said, I didn't expect Nix to keep ascending as impressively as he has this season. Hopefully his arc will give other older college QBs a better shot, especially given the recent media blitz against the NFL regarding how development of the QB position in the league seems to be non-existent. Hopefully Bryce continues to improve as well, of course.  
    • “You can learn a lot in 10 games,” Nix said. “[I’m] still learning, still growing, but just finding ways to execute the play that’s called, no matter what it is: run play, pass play. It doesn’t matter. Just finding the right way to go with the ball.” To that point, Nix noted how his developing partnership with head coach Sean Payton has helped Denver’s offense get to the next level. “To be honest, I think at the beginning, you kind of make the NFL bigger than what it actually is,” Nix said when asked where he feels he’s made the most strides. “These players are really good, but at the same time, you have really good players on your level. I think simplifying the game, trying to play as fast as possible, and finding a completion, which is what we’ve been able to do here recently. “I think as we’ve gone on, Coach and I have found a good rhythm of what we both like, what we can kind of put out there on the field, and what we can execute. Then the guys have kind of adapted to it, found our roles within the offense, and executed at a high level. It’s just all about slowing the game down and processing things in a manner that you can handle. Just kind of see one or two things, and let those guys take you to where the ball is supposed to be.” -Bo Nix From what I'm gathering regarding Bryce, the Panthers entered this season with a reset mindset. It's Young's rookie year, which explains the benching. Now, we're beginning to see the development of Canales and Young's offense. Slow development but we're winning 😃 
    • Bix has more tds through his first 11 games than bryce has his entire career....no comparison at all he made amazing throws during his first games his decision making just keeps getting better.  Young does not have the physical ability ro make the rhrows bo makes
