Notice Blazers Pick Shaedon Sharpe With #7 Pick

dame is just butthurt that sharpe hasnt followed him back

sharpe dont give a fuck about dame, you gotta love that mentality

 

What a fucking thoughtful response.

 

What an insane thing to do.

 

Sharpe just met dame a few hours ago.

and then dame unfollowed him. Ahahahhahahahaa

 

Dame was like “fuck these kids!”

 

Nope, but ya

 

I heard Shaedon rarely checks his notifications. Dame is a "if I follow you, you better follow me back right away" type of guy. So he jokingly unfollowed him because he hadn't followed him back.

It's not serious, other than to send a message to start respecting your vets now, rook!

 

Ya but shaedon follows didi. This kid...

 

Listening to this kid I don't think he's a talker....probably not a gregarious person. I wouldn't take his twitter responses as a sign of anything...he's in a blur right now probably trying to find out where to get around in Portland...couple days ago he was in NYC so I'm sure his head is spinning. He said he didn't talk to Dame at either workout too...that's not different from twitter...the kid could also think he's the next MJ and everyone is competition

 

For the record, the "incorrect outcome" is wasting a high pick on a flop. I hold to the quaint notion that more info means better decisions and a reduced chance of getting it wrong.

If Sharpe turns out to be a great player, and more importantly helps the team succeed, that's great.

 

Blazer fans short term reality sucks, it's not my fault for recognizing it.

Really happy they drafted Sharpe though. He's young and years away from his potential, but man does he have some tools. That jumper is buttery.

STOMP

 

Thanks for commenting. I can’t really control what other shows do obviously. Chad and I in the afternoons do an enormous amount of detailed Blazers talk. I care more about the Blazers than any other topic on sports radio, period.

I wasn’t very educated at all on Sharpe prior to the draft, just reading reports of other peoples first hand accounts. Since he was drafted, that’s a different story. I’m catching up on every single thing I can about him. I met his parents this morning, I talked to his little brother.

Prior to the draft, there is SO much information on so many players. I watched and read reports, and video. But frankly, I spent more time on trades and things that come along with that because that’s what direction I thought the team was going. I have to prioritize my time. There’s a lot going on with my family at the moment (nothing bad) and I had to choose my time wisely.

I didn’t spend a ton of time on Sharpe because I didn’t think they’d go in that direction, plus highlights don’t do anything for me, and I’m not all that interested in video from 2 years ago. I was obviously wrong.

 

i appreciate the kind words, thank you!

 

your post isn’t too harsh. I can handle legitimate criticisms. I ignore trolls, that’s not what this was.

 

Nice to see you come here with an honest. open response. Until the last several days before the draft I think most here thought we would trade the pick, I did. Then rather quickly it seemed to go to a better chance to keep the pick as trading options for someone like OG were too rich and other options apparently not that good. I do think the Sharpe pick is a gamble and high risk/high reward, but like many here I think this is a gamble POR should take and they did.

 

Absolute troll to show Dame meeting Walker but not Sharpe LOL

 

I'm saying this right now. This guy will be an impact player this season for our team. He will contribute to wins we wouldn't get without him. It might be off the bench for the whole season but at some point it may be as a starter.

 

That logo looks like it could get worn out.
