    It's starting to become criminal if Sharpe doesn't gets reps this season. You can clearly he is making progress already and reps are what he needs.

    Quite a difference in the passing between the 2nd/3rd units of these two teams.

    Saying this for years
    I was thinking of making a long post breaking down all the things that concerned me about what I've seen in the preseason.

    Then I got on my stationary bike for 5 minutes and watched a little more and came up with this:

    What the Blazers are doing looks so basic that I can't imagine this is the system we're going to play in the regular season. There's no real team scheme on either end of the court, which doesn't jibe with what we saw last season, so I'm going to reserve my opinion for what I see once we have a few games under our belt.

    If it looks like this once the games count, then you're going to probably see Dame develop a phantom medical issue that ends his season around Christmas and Chauncey will get fired pretty quickly, but it just doesn't seem to me too likely this is the approach we're going to have, so I'll hold back on the criticism for now.

    You know Chauncey sucks as a coach because everytime Jabari Walker plays he does well and still gets no significant minutes

    So we are intentionally not running a cohesive scheme for what purpose? To not give away our secretly awesome scheme that we’re saving for the regular season?

    One fascinating thing about that alley-oop, once he got it in, he landed and his expression went right back to normal. No over the top celebration/excitement. Just back to buisness.

    I think what I like most about Sharpe is his defense kid is almost always in right rotation on defense
