Hot take twitter crowd is saying Noah Clowney > Brandon Miller. Thoughts?

Disagree.

Clowney is nice, but 6'9 3&D (with questionable 3) 4/5 tweeners arent as valuable as what Brandon Miller is. I'd put Taylor Hendricks over Clowney right now.

The shot looks solid but he doesn’t look to shoot as much as he could. He has a weird gait that makes me question him as an athlete a bit. Could be a gem in the late first if his stock stays where it is.

Watched some videos of him and couldnt see what you are talking about.

Great pick in the late 1st or early 2nd round if he's there. I like him more than Dillon Mitchell right now.

Still dont know what to think of Mitchell. He's been really good at what he's doing, but he isnt doing much that would make him a lottery pick unless his shot looks good in practice.

The way he runs just looks a little clunky when I watched the game. It isn't like Myles Turner in college... just not super fluid. It is 100% eye test type of thing so I very well could be wrong. Might just have a high center of gravity or something.

And its not like a major concern... just when I think of guys that put the clamps on dudes they usually have really fluid hips and lateral movement. I think he may be more a disruptor who is solid at staying with guys rather than a clamps guy.

The shot form looks really solid and I am not concerned he is staying in his role and not racking up huge numbers. I'd rather pick a guy in the late first that has a bankable skill or two and then can expand out. I think he passed up some shooting opportunities early in the game but he may be following the game plan.
 
Like Walsh might be more a RoCo type and less of a Bridges type dude.
 
Anthony Black is the guy I'm looking at in the 10-12 range that I would just love for us. Love the way he plays even if its a bit understated. Heard a pod with Jake Fisher and Kristen Peek the other day... They just talked about how he's a worker and is present at every camp imaginable. Had a story about him playing with the national team and then showing up at some CP camp immediately after... said originally Nick Smith wasn't planning on attending cuz he was tired and the organizers was like "well Anthony is here and ready to go" and Smith ended up showing up.

6'7" playmakers that love basketball and the shot isn't broken... give me that **** all day.

clowney played well vs houston and miller didn't. that's just lazy, recency bias.

That’s not it. I actually saw this take before the HOU game. Clowney is two years younger than Brandon Miller.

I don’t think it’s crazy. Clowney could be a lottery type prospect. Brandon Miller is a lottery type prospect, but I’m not buying into the top 3/top 5 hype. If he was younger, maybe.
