    Sharpe playing SL seems like a massive deal. If Sharpe plays with Scoot the two of them could probably co MVP the Vegas SL. Could put Scoots value through the roof. Give a clear idea of the future going forward. Change the off-season plan a bit.

    I think I'm more excited by Sharpe/Scoot than the actual season.

    Rupert could be a very nice player. PoA Defender and hard worker.

    I would actually be shocked if Sharpe plays. He got hurt last year. I think he's going to be the starter at shooting guard next season. Usually we don't risk players like that.

    If he does maybe it will only be a game or two. Injuries happen, he’s young. Question is how much good it would do him. Probably do more for Scoot than Sharpe.

    I would be cool with that. If anything I'd really like to see how he and Scoot gel together.

    Sounds like Sharpe is going to go but it's up to him whether he plays or not and if he does, it would only be a game or two.

    I'm tempted to go to summer league this season to see this Blazers roster dominate. Really special draft class this year.

    I bet he plays. Going down there, training with the team, and then not play? I can't imagine it.

    Sharpe addressed summer league in his exit interview. I am looking forward to watching for the first in many moons.

    @ about the 55 second mark...

    Yeah, I'm just not sure if the team wants him to play.

    Re: Sharpe - these days it's kind of common to have a high profile second-or-third year player show up for like one or two games.

    Scoot playing well and his value going up makes it less likely that he gets traded. He's 19.
