    Sharpe will be better. Edwards is overrated. Look up his PER.

    Presty has a number of years with super stars coming and going and still hasn’t won the whole thing. He should get one soon if not this year or?

    Edwards PER this season was 20.1.

    Sharpe's 14.5 this year is only better than Edwards rookie year of 13.9.

    So many people have shit on Presti over the years.

    Dude is one of the best gms in the league. Getting a winner in OKC is tough.

    ......which he was a part of drafting/trading for.

    I'd trade our last 20 years for theirs. The next 10 years of the future too. They are loaded with picks.

    I might of posted this before, but I can’t help but think of Alfred E Neuman from MAD magazine when I see the Nuggets coach.

    That’s why I said Sharpe WILL be better. Edwards is an ok player. 20 PER is not great. Sharpe will be great.

    Edwards is only a couple years older than Sharpe. Lots of ground to cover to even be close.

    Edwards vs Sharpe in their 3rd seasons, at 21 years:

    upload_2025-5-16_9-3-39.png

    upload_2025-5-16_9-4-50.png

    Edwards is already a 3-time all-star. He was an all-star in his 3rd season. When the all-star game happened in Sharpe's 3rd season, He was coming off the bench and Kris Murray was starting

    Edwards was 2nd team all NBA last season (his 4th season) and will be at least that this season. Anybody think Sharpe will be All-NBA next season? or average 26-5-5 like Edwards did?

    I like Sharpe and hold out hope for him. But at this point, forecasting he'll be better than Edwards is foolish. Jalen Williams is a more realistic goal and even then, it might not happen

    All star games should NEVER be used to judge a players success or failure. Fans vote for that shit! Feel the same about championships. Shit Adam Morrison and JR Rider have rings.

    Edwards’ PER is 20. That’s Ty Jerome territory. Jerome is actually better. Sharpe could easily pass that in his career.
