There we go!

 

[SheedSoNasty]

Trade? I hope not…

 

[Strenuus]

Better trade it. Only right move.

 

[Fairly-Hard]

He’s 6-6 but still a guard?
Ant Gone?

 

[beast blazer]

It's true

SS is a 6'4.5 Scoring Guard. Ant is still in Portland, still 6'2 and still a PG

Oh goody my favorite journalist.

HEY ABBOTT!

He’s a wing. Can easily play the 3

fly man of mystery

 

[STOMP]

Sure he can. He can also play center. But size wise, 6'4.5 200 with a 7' wingspan, thats pretty prototypical 2 guard dimensions.

Will he still be a Blazer an hour from now?

[Fairly-Hard]

I kind of agree it’s a bit of a mystery what this guy will end up like?
I see the potential. Hope this turns out good.

I like the pick! I'll REALLY like it if we keep him. I've been pretty down on the team since... 2019-ish. But this is the best talent we've added in years and as long as we don't mortgage the future to add more pieces to win now, I think it'll be a fun team to root for this season and into the future.

 

[Strenuus]

Btw, I am upset at the pick but I don't mind eating crow if he pops. Just frustrated.

Just please get another vet somehow.

Cronin is willing to go big even if some will question him. Did it at the trade deadline, does it again at the draft. It might not work - but I am intrigued for the first time in... 3 years?

 

[ehizzy3]

he should (and hopefully will) get roasted for this

This I agree with. My intruige level is high.

I don't agree with the pick 100% but it at least makes some sense.

Just don't play him meaningful minutes this year IMO. In two years? I guess I can see it.

Anything we get out of sharpe next season is a bonus. But Cronin knows that. There will be multiple players ahead of him on the depth chart, any minutes he gets will be earned.

STOMP

He's the same height as Justise Winslow, and with a 1" longer wingspan. He'll need to gain some weight, but should absolutely be able to effectively play the SF position.

Beal is pretty prototypical, and Sharpe is way longer than him?

 

[oldmangrouch]

A player who increased his value by sitting out a year.

Fuck it. I have no desire to spend this kid's tenure as a Blazer listening to Leonard Meyers level whining about patience.

 

[blazerkor]

This is the DUDE in this draft. He could be the premier wing scorer of his generation and he could also be a lockdown defender. What an incredibly exciting pick. Cronin said he wants to swing for the fences and he sure did. If Shaeden is a bust, I won't blame Cronin. It's a really smart gamble after getting the safe player in Grant.

I get it. I'm just nervous.

I know it’s obviously possible, but is there anyway Ant doesn’t come back?

I think he’s back, but always a chance
