Show Notes

After being the top fan vote-getter among Eastern Conference guards last year, he still missed out, so we examine the media and player votes that could stand in his way again. Next, we consider the future of head coach Charles Lee, rating the possibility that he will still be at the helm in three years, a tenure that would tie a franchise record.

The conversation then shifts to LaMelo Ball's long-term future in Charlotte. We offer separate ratings for two scenarios: the likelihood that LaMelo asks for a trade, and the likelihood that the front office trades him before his current contract expires. After that, it's time for the second round of our annual Stat Draft. Our friend of the show, David Walker, sends in his picks, targeting an OVER on LaMelo Ball's assists and an UNDER on Miles Bridges' scoring average. We follow that up with our own selections, both centered on Brandon Miller's sophomore season, picking an OVER on his field goal percentage and an UNDER on his usage rate. Finally, we briefly preview a spirited debate for next time: who wore jersey number 3 best?
