Yeah. The kid would have several insane dunks a game if he had a point guard like Chris Paul. Unfortunately this is one of Dame's biggest weaknesses. He has never been good at throwing lobs.
I think he is the key to the Trail Blazers permanently moving up a level as a team. That should be everyone's focus.
You get him working a two man game with Nurk or Hart and this would work just fine. Grant might be best? Just takes a little time in the gym for them to get it going.
I think they already are worrying about it when he is on the floor.....now that they have scouted him. That video above however from last night is what I want to see more often. That is harder to stop IMO and if they try he will go to the line more often. He already has an assortment of shots that will make him difficult to stop. He has the long ball, he can attack the basket, and he has a nice mid-range. Impressive at his age.
I think he hit he wall a little earlier because he had a harder time being gameplanned for. Most college stars are already used to that level of scouting. High School teams don't have the capability to do that.
It's been a long time since I've used Ali's quote. It appears that Sharpe..... "Floats like a butterfly....and stings like a bee"
Green was actually a pretty good shooter later in his career. I think you're forgetting how insanely athletic Gerald Green was.
I didn't make the comparison. I'm just saying it's not really accurate to say that Shaedon is way more athletic than Gerald Green.
I don't think it's unfair to say that Gerald Green is his floor. A super athletic player that never really puts it together as a star.
Ok sure. GG is his floor. He's 19. Why are we comparing him to someone that wore a Blazers jersey for ~40 games? Fuck that. Can we let his flag fly? Dunk the ball.
