I'd rather Portland have focused on Flagg, too, while developing Sharpe and Scoot. On the flip side, Portland could trade down to OKC or the Spurs,...
If there wasn't such a thing as the Portland Trailblazers, I wouldn't care about the NBA either. Lack of Jordan killed it, sure, but the way they...
Cooper addresses shooting, rebounding, playmaking at the 4, defense, and reliable scoring. Short term, Sharpe comes off the bench. Long term, Deni...
Since we're segwaying into Jermaine and young players..... Prep to Pro types, which Sharpe as since he skipped his HS senior year, typically takes...
Ace Bailey is toolsy and plays good defense but still needs to develop it further for the NBA. SGAs don't exactly grow on trees. If there's an SGA...
SGA = Dylan Harper Klay Thompson = Ace Bailey, albeit he is more like MPJ/KD put together. That's about it. The other guys are probably in another...
All things considered, the Nuggets are something like 21-5 in their last 26 games. Portland hung on and didn't quit. I think that makes this loss...
My still standing observation for a contender has been the majority of playing time goes to the MVP candidate and his supporting cast of three 17ppg...
That tracks with articles that used to be online but for whatever reason, have now been wiped clean off the internet. I remember - perhaps during...
Nah, don't worry. Flagg isn't a 7 foot big
I keep saying I get deja vu about Flagg vs. Harper being like Oden vs. Durant. Reminds me of this: [IMG]
I don't know whether Sharpe is just a potential Khris Middleton on steroids or if he's the next Kobe but I want to say people are forgetting what...
Sure, I agree with that sentiment and I think the NBA knew this was the future. Stern spoke about it in the mid-2000s at the height of the Run n'...
Yeah, that's a good comparison. Although, pound per pound, I think Harper is a better athlete and more agile. For example, I read somewhere that...
I truly think forcing the league to run more can be mentally and physically exhausting while also being far more taxing on the body, in the long...
He had a great first quarter against the Clippers before he tweaked his ankle or knee or whatever. Watching him play, it's not just effort and an...
The problem with Edgecombe as the next Wade is that his wingspan is ridiculously short, 6'5" on a 6'4" body. When you look at Wade, he was 6'11" on...
It's a matter of him being too unselfish rather than just taking the ball and running with it, regardless of mistakes. In terms of his impact and...
I suppose the silver lining of losing a game like Portland did against the Rockets is that you can see what Portland needs - offense to take pressure...
I doubt the #3 pick was available for those two but I would've jumped on it as those were two of my favorite prospects after Sharpe. The main reason...
