    Never thought 3 months ago that I would have someone other than Sharpe I'm most interested in next year. Super interested to see all three of Scoot/Sharpe/Ant.

    The rest of the roster I'd work to dump for whatever we can. Hopefully more of a haul for Lillard, the others I'd even accept a mediocre pick.

    I just hope Sharpe and Scoot can coexist. I still think Ant will be used in a trade at trade deadline.

    I really think this roster will look better with a pass first point guard in Sc00t.

    I've watched the NBA for 50 years and I'm not exactly sure what "pass first PG" means...?

    Dame was 10th in the NBA last season in assist rate at 35.0%. Scoot's G-League rate was 29.8%. Dame has had a higher career assist rate than usage rate. Over the last 5 seasons his assist rate has been about 10% higher than his usage rate

    my thinking is that if Scoot is a pass first PG he will either be wasting his talent or overrated. The best is to have a PG with the talent to score or facilitate depending on the defense
