I never really got to know Sheed. He hated the media so much taht he was just flat out rude to all of them. One night I told him "good game" and he ignored me.
Here is the full interview. I set the link to jump past the first 20 mins before they bring Sheed out. IT'S F'ING AWESOME! Great stories. He even tells the full Yellow Hummer story. 10/10 GuaranSheed Must Listen!
Got a headband from Sheed once. Was so sweaty it melted the paper head on a stick I was carrying it with: into the garbage.
I didn't like his antics in general, and I thought he was a shitty teammate to Sabonis. Talks shit about Walton. He was a spoiled baby. Fuck Sheed.
It's like what someone said about Barkley: "Most people are assholes who want you to think they're nice. Charles is a nice guy who wants you to think he's an asshole". Nowadays Sheed would get called "neurodivergent".
Watched some of full interview and will watch rest on TV. Sheed has the rare ability to laugh at himself. BTW didn't know his marriage ended. I imagine being married to him could be trying.
Fun to listen to the full interview. Sounds like a funny and cool guy. But sill think he's one of the most overrated players by portland fans.
Sheed doing color commentary for our broadcasts would be fucking awesome. The stories along with real understanding of the game.
Only problem would be the colorful language. Could he get through a game without cussing? Doesn't bother me but broadcast rules.
I love him. Sheed is my favorite Blazer of all time regardless. I got a lot of techs as a kid because of him.
Remember how fans would bitch about him taking 3s like he was wasting his talent? Sheed was an excellent player while a Trailblazer. Team oriented and efficient on offense and a versatile solid defender. But there were always better Bigs and players in general during his era. Even at his peak I never thought he was a top 10 talent in the league. Some fans talked about him as if he had that sort of potential, but I never really saw that. I grew up in Winston-Salem rooting for Wake Forest. I remember Sheed coming to UNC being the country's #1 rated recruit and then watching him getting his ass handed to him by the least hyped Freshman in Wake's 4 man class. Sheed was really really good but that 17 year old unknown from the Virgin Islands was clearly a level above. So warts and all I viewed him as very very good... basically the borderline AS that he was. In the 20+ years since Wallace was a PTB only LaMarcus approached his level of impact as a forward though Deni is coming STOMP
