If Miller continues to stat pad against really bad teams like last night, he might go higher. But truth is, he isn't that good against good teams. Against ranked opponents this year: 17 ppg 7 rpg 1.6 apg. Not bad, but not exactly top 3 pick material. But the shooting numbers are what is worrisome. 37% from the field. 34% from three. That includes a game against Houston where he played 30 minutes and had zero FG's. A game against UNC where he played 48 minutes (4OT game) and had 4 FG's. Those are just the raw numbers. That isn't even bringing up his limitations, very low shot release (He shoots from his chin), and how old he is. A 19 year old freshman is considered old and Miller is already 20 and will be 21 when the NBA season starts. A nice tournament run against solid competition would help alleviate some of those concerns.

A few surprises while doing my morning reading. First, an article about Mercedes and Toto in the WSJ. Then I open The Athletic and see they are starting an F1 section.

Such a Ferrari thing. The nose with the indent is at high speed. Ferrari confirmed it was a faulty nose and not by design.

41 for Miller tonight. He really showed the mentality you need in the association. In case he is ever facing rape charges in Colorado.

Nothing will impact his draft stock unless he is charged. Even then it will be 50/50. We are talking about a league who put Karl Malone front and center this past weekend. A guy who impregnated a 13 year old when he was 20. Wait and see what happens with Mikal Bridges. I am guessing they already know how long his suspension will be. When there are that many games left in the season Charlotte will sign him and he will sit out the remainder of the season, then come back next training camp like nothing happened.

Miller will not be off of the Pistons or any other teams board because of this. He will still go 5-10

As far as his draft status. If he never gets charged with anything and nothing else new comes out, he 100% gets drafted.

Miller was there. https://sports.yahoo.com/alabamas-brandon-miller-could-have-stopped-a-tragedy-he-didnt-235307398.html?ncid=twitter_yahoosport_dw14wrbb51g

Preliminary hearing in killing of Jamea Harris, police testify Darius Miles texted Brandon Miller to bring murder weapon

I am guessing Miller would specifically have to know beforehand that Miles intended to use the gun for a murder. Plus, the gun did belong to Miles. So Miller could just say he was returning it to him.

We need a down vote button.

Strictly a CYA statement.

The article is by Givony so its legit.

Thought some might find this interesting. Basically a chef wearing a Go Pro during service.

You have that backwards btw.

2 of the 5 no 60 win seasons were before the merger.

Someone snapped a pic of the pit lane being built in Vegas. Pretty pricy bit of land to sit there unused 51 weeks a year.

I honestly do not understand how a GM thinks bringing Westbrook in is a good idea.
