Game Thread 2024-25 GAME #17 - BLAZERS @ ROCKETS - NOV 23, 2024 - SAT - 5:00 PM - CHARGE, BLAZERVISION

You’d think guys want Sharpe to have a 40% usage rate at <50% TS lol. He’s already near the top of the team in usage, and he takes shots like that.

 

Sharpe should get the ball at the top of the 3-point line or further out and allow him to do whatever he wants.

It's just really stupid to turn him into a catch-and-shoot guard.

If that's Billups way to get Sharpe the ball , Billups is ....?

 

Don't set Sharpe up for catch and shoot. Give him the ball at half court.

 

Many people just feel the need to complain about something...Not sure why something created as entertainment brings out so much misery in people.

 

Good 1Q, even considering the circus that is Kris Murray on offense.

 

OK, Sharpe finally got the ball out past the 3-point line.

Did he take a bad mid-range jumper? NO he did not. He collapsed the defense and kicked it out.

Billups should be working on that over and over and over with all its permutations.

 

So you're hoping wanting Sharpe iso? This is so confusing in here.

 

They did on that last possession and he made a horrible play lol.

His creation skills are hit or miss, even Sharpe would admit that. He’s not there yet.

 

Horrible play? You haven't watched the Blazers offense much if that was horrible.

 

I’m out of the loop? What is in Cedar Rapids?

 

With all due respect, Clingan could hit a 3 and you’d start clamoring about how the offense should revolve around getting Clingan open 3s. Then he’d miss the next one and you’d start complaining about why they’re running their offense around Clingan shooting threes.

 

How was it horrible? He set up Murray for a 3 who fumbled the ball.

 

Green is such a chucker. Yuck.

 

Look at what happens when you run Shae off screens and pin downs...

 

You see that by Billups? Give the ball to Simons, who bricks a three without any attempt to get to the hoop.

The coach can absolutely control that.

Don't blame that on Shaedon Sharpe's lack of wanting the ball.

Simons could have been standing in the corner ready for a catch-and-shoot three.

Sharpe could have touched the ball on that possession, but didn't.

 

Wow, this is a good team when Grant, Ant and Sharpe are making their shots.

 

Really liking Clingan's play, great pick

 

What a horseshit shot by Ant from 3...

 

Good thing Udoka wasted his challenge already
