    It’s why I always say he’s super soft and a plodding dodo when he plays basketball

    He needs to stay in Seattle and wait for a team

    Here’s an idea: how about we not let Brandon Williams run the offense at will and run some stuff for Sharpe so he’s not just standing around.

    If you're in Seattle you can't see the game due to a Mariners broadcast.

    Not that I'm missing much, it looks like based on the gamecast.

    To be fair, Sharpe hasn't shown to move well off the ball when he was in with the rotation guys either. He stands within a 3ft radius on the wing a lot.

    Sharpe seems like he doesn't know what he's doing, as if he hasn't played much organized basketball. Stands around its like 5 on 4 out there.

    Nice take by Sharpe there... happy to see the lid come off the basket for him.

    He’s an unselfish player. He’s all about winning.

    He looks like a talented guy who hasn't played high level basketball... which is his exact reality.

    The game has to seem incredibly fast to him right now.

    Seriously. Why Brandon Williams at all? A point guard with blinders on ain't my kind of point guard...

    I'm not worried, he's 19. It's good that he's on the floor. He needs to iso instead of catching and shoot. He just needs a feel of the flow of the game and more game time.

    I'm unsure how we can draw that conclusion one way or another. He hasn't won a game in a couple years.

    Agreed. No need to be worried, it won't change a thing.

    Shaedon is the kind of player this team has lacked since we traded Drexler. Be patient. He’s a 2way superstar in the making.

    Is that a prediction or projection?
