@@thuggwaffle8825 i guess thats fair i just think he gets lost more than he is lazy. Hes a good help defender but he gets lost in iso defense and going over screens
I was pretty accurate when I predicted his year 2 stats so for this season I’m predicting he will average 22.8 ppg, 5.8 rpg, 6.1 ast, 0.9 stl, 0.7 blk, 49% fg, 39% 3fg, 87% ft, remember this
Shaedon is my favorite. If next season, he gets a low fade buzz cut like Jordan Kobe, he's easily going to be the best player in the NBA. He's got everything, the dunks, the putbacks, the stepbacks, the quick pull up jumpers, the 3's, the passing abilities, the 50 inch vert, the mid range magician, lay ups, etc etc but also a nike soft endorsement, I think the trailblazers are now ready for a big win. I wouldn't be surprised is there is disappointment because of a lack of management interest in it.
I hope he still has that insane athleticism after the surgery. We've got a decent amount of players I'm excited to watch grow with Shaedon being among the top
He has all the tools but does he have the work ethic to be a superstar? To me there's questions. Why did he not play at Kentucky? Why did he miss two thirds of the season with an injury that didn't warrant it? (granted that could have been a team decision) Does he love basketball enough to reach his potential. I'm not sold quite yet. He seems too chill. I've heard a lot about Scoot's work this offseason. Clingon talks a big game about working hard. But around Shae the topic has always been crickets.
As a lifelong (age 61) Blazer fan, I have been lazer focused on the team and Shaedon in particular. In my opinion, Shaedon reminds me of Clyde Drexler. Will Shaedon ever be as good as Clyde, that remains to be seen. Shaedon needs to be MUCH more accertive and agressive. He definitely has all of the tools and ability. Last season was supposed to be his "coming out" season but he has injuries. This coming season he really needs to be more of a leader and attack the rim more often and with authority. Drexler was an AMAZING top 50 all-time player. We will see what Shaedon "decides" to do with his career.
52 seconds and I had to pause….he graduated high school early and joined Kentucky mid season as a red shirt training with college with the idea of full commitment but backed out for the nba draft
Just looked it up and you are correct. I thought he was dealing with an injury out of HS and thats why he didn't play at Kentucky. Should've confirmed that though, good catch!
The Blazers GM is hooked on Anfernee Simons. It kinda leaves Shaedon Sharpe out of the loop. The only time Blazer fans were polled about which guard to trade.... 95% of Blazers fans said keep Sharpe, trade Simons
I would check again. Cronin said days ago that he intends to build around Shaedon and Scoot. Notably leaving Simons' name out. In any case, if Cronin did commit to Simons for the long term, it would be Scoot that would be the odd man out, not Shaedon. The beauty of Shaedon's game is he will fit well with any combination of players in the lineup.
They WERE higher on Simons. But as RonnieLeeDuck pointed out, he left out Simons name. Cronins known to be very intentional with things like that, so sounds like Shae and Scoot may be the pairing long term, but who knows.
Shaedon Sharpe obviously has massive potential, but I wonder if he really wants to become great or if his body will cooperate. Last year was obviously a massive disappointment for all concerned. The fans that want him to play small forward are completely offbase. He's definitely a shooting guard. I would be happy if Sharpe could play 70-75 games with no injuries and show development in becoming a 2 way player. Not sure if the Billups coaching staff is up to the task though.
Love Shae and I’m as excited as the next PNW resident. I love the ceiling but I still think he has one of the widest variance between floor and ceiling in the league and not sure he’s done enough in two seasons to shrink it. Obviously part of it is all the injuries since Kentucky but his style of play - while incredibly intriguing and fun - could project out as a two-way, multi-level scoring all star guard or another empty calorie bucket getter that is a complete liability on defense. This scenario will be even more detrimental when Portland inevitably pays him and he ends up in the Beal, Poole, Oubre, etc where he’s nearly untradable due to his price tag and lack of impact on winning games, really limiting what you can do as an organization. There is a lot of time and opportunity between now and then, and I’m still very much optimistic for Shae. But that doesn’t change the fact there is a lot riding on this season for him.
Let me dream bruh 😂 No but seriously, if Grant is traded and Shae is healthy, I could see him averaging along the lines of 22/5/7. Should've worded it as he could be at an all star level, but doubt he beats out anyone for that spot

In Shae we trust✊🏽
Shae and Scoot taking us to the parade 🔥
I fully believe that shae is a superstar in the making
100% Agree! Gonna take this team FAR
I think he has the skills, I’m not sold on his motor yet
@@thuggwaffle8825 theres quite literally no reason to question his motor tho im confused
@@Ant2tufffr his defense. He’s lazy on defense even though he’s a capable defender

PLEASE BE COOKING 🤞🏽
@@pnwdevv if Simons is still on the team then it’s gonna be harder but apparently they are shopping him around so I hope he’s traded soon
Insane efficiency, will probably be closer to 45FG% and 363P%
He's a beast for sure can be the best player in the nba facts but has to stay healthy 💯 I hope he can I believe in him and his career is Bright

He really is just missing the fade huh? 🤣
@@pnwdevv I love his current hairstyle, even in 2K it looks awesome, but I just really think he needs a buzz cut to reach peak performance.
His hair gotta weigh 5 pounds 😂
Bro I appreciate you making these videos, not enough discourse about the blazers rn
Thanks so much bro, I appreciate the comment! Blazer fans need it rn haha, but can't have the rainbow without the storm!

Thanks for the comment, so cool seeing some vetran insight on the time. Shaedon definitely shows flashes of Clyde, and other stars similar to him.

I think if Anfernee is still on the team, then Sharpe will average around 18 ppg.
Simons needs to go

Agreed. It also helps the two are redundant and Simmons is making 100m on his contract.

gonna age well
Finally someone said it! I hope he has a great year next year

In my MyPlayer for NBA 2K24 I requested for my team to trade for him and he’s been my best teammate. Thanks Shaedon 🙏

He’s our best shot at a superstar but I don’t see the tenacity of someone that’s going to be a superstar and I worry about his health
Him and Scoot. Wish Scoot showed a bit more his rookie season, but I have hope he has a great Year 2, along with a monster year 3 from Shae
Blazer fan here… did you just say Shaedon could be an all star THIS YEAR?😂
Let me dream bruh 😂 No but seriously, if Grant is traded and Shae is healthy, I could see him averaging along the lines of 22/5/7.
Should've worded it as he could be at an all star level, but doubt he beats out anyone for that spot
i'm very high on shaedon ^ him + simons are the sole reason i'm interested in the blazers, they both tuff
Don't forget about Scoot!
I love the guy just don't trust he will stay healthy
Good video his my favourite player
Thanks for the comment! Shaedons gonna be a star!
wait...where are you seeing that his PER was 18?
Thanks for pointing that out, that was a mess up on my end. Ayton had a 19 PER and Sharpe was closer to a 12. My b
Yup
Sharpe is a fine young player with a bright future.
On the low side, he might be a JR Smith, on the high side he might be a Zach Lavine level player.
He has a much higher ceiling that LaVine imo but these next few years will be HUGE for his progression
Higher than multi year all star and Olympian?
@@JonahPedersen-tz3uk yeah he’s more athletic than Lavine and he can be a superstar type player
I hope you’re right. He’s the only player on the roster with even 1% chance to reach that level.
@@JonahPedersen-tz3uk not Scoot?
I wanted Edey...I hope we dont regret the choice to NOT draft him
Edey gonna be good, but not a star. Clingan has a higher floor and higher ceiling to become a star big man one day imo
@@pnwdevv I'll see it when I see it...and in the mean time pray for it...but I see no reason why Edey cant be a star
He's going ti need to develop sustained toughness and heart. Not sure he has that factor to become superstar.
Considering the leap he made from his last year of HS to the NBA, I think he'll be great.
Except he's always hurt
He only missed 1 game his rookie season, and was out last season with 1 injury…
SS17 has to focus on defense BC it's atrocious! Outside of that I'm a huge fan. Lez Goooooo #TrailBlazers🩶🖤❤️
