    With the Sharpe pick I’m kinda wishing we went Collins instead of Grant. Still a win now move but fits the Ant/Sharpe/Nas timeline if win now doesn’t work.

    I don't think those girls are prostitutes, but I am reminded of a song in the 70's by the Fugs. (Saran Wrap)
    This kid with his projected long-term wealth will be a magnet for young women. He better wrap it up if he wants to hold on to his money.

    First time I realized that he didn't enroll at Kentucky until January; makes more sense now why he didn't play.

    Been camping out of Range.
    See we drafted Sharp.
    What happened with other picks of ours?

    thanks

    Was my post too harsh? Should I go back and soften it up?
    I just felt it had to be said based on his comments vs what has been posted in this very thread. I do appreciate and respect that Travis would even come on the board to discuss and interact with the forum.

    That's actually a fair point, in the right context. When I look at Sharpe's game film and highlight/workout packages, I see two different players.

    In game play, he looks like he's either coasting against weak competition, or lacking the explosiveness you'd like to see at the SG position. He plays more like a forward. Very fast downhill, but I'm not seeing a good first step.

    But in the team workouts and highlight videos, he's got an elusive, herky jerky dribble and gets off the floor quick for dunks or blocks. Recent improvements doesn't explain it, because the highlight videos are older.

    Dame follows 2300 people. I wonder what Sharpe did to make Dame deliberately follow and then unfollow him in a matter of days.

    Do we know for certain he followed him in the first place?

    He followed him after we drafted him. Unfollowed him either this morning or last night. If you don't believe me you can ask @illmatic99 lol.

    I know Dame personally welcomes everyone that joins the team. May be something said in private that Dame didn't like? From snooping through Sharpe's various social media profiles he's got some serious maturing to do as a person.

    I feel like a teenager in overthinking this bullshit tbh. Maybe dame is just waiting for shaedon to follow him first. That said... It takes serious effort to deliberately unfollow someone lol.

    Shaedon is 19. Prolly shouldnt worry too much if his support system is good.

    Exactly. If a team continues mortgaging the future constantly over time, the team becomes what the Trailblazers were last season, or the current New York Knicks, or Charlotte.
