He did ok in it. Doesn't appear to be super comfortable talking in front of the media, but said all the right things

Hard to not be proud of how the blazers have played on the court during these first two games. Not a perfect roster, but there is something there!

Interestingly, this is the most entertaining the Blazers product has been in a long time

I don't think his release is quick, at all. I don't have the data to back it up, so maybe I'm wrong. I think he has an arm, but doesn't throw the greatest ball. And I'm not saying he's awful or going to be awful. He's QB5 on this roster, Novosad never was that. Time will tell, but I think the...

Totally agree.. Moore has some special arm-talent. I was excited to watch him at Oregon the next two seasons, but I'm starting to think it might just be one!

No "inside info". I'm just going off a combination of the level of QB Lanning has played in 4 seasons and the probability of someone with Smith's mechanics and arm-talent can get there. I don't anticipate Lanning will be playing a good-ish QB (unless injures get involved) any time soon. Novosad...

Correct. Don't anticipate it'll be at a P5 level either.

Yes, the tools/mechanics would have to change greatly. Novosad for example was way ahead of Smith coming to Oregon out of HS, and unless Moore goes pro this year (he might), he's unlikely to take a meaningful snap as well. Look at the caliber of player to get meaningful snaps at Oregon over...

I'd be shocked if he ever plays a meaningful snap at Oregon.

We already got enough for him the first time!

On how many attempts and on what percentage? How is his play-making for others, defense, etc? We're not looking for a high volume shooter on low percentages. There is no coach or teammate that is preventing Sharpe from shooting 49% from the field and 36% from 3. That's on Sharpe.

Agreed.... though this is my answer for every player on the roster, every season.

Which is so much better than having 3 guards who should be playing 24 minutes, but are forced to play more than they're ready for. I think the biggest difference between now and 2 years ago is the rest of the roster had much bigger holes to fill and the argument could've been made then that...

Revote!

I agree. The argument that it would be better if we signed him to the minimum is true, but that would be true with any signing. And clearly, Dame wasn't willing to take the minimum, which is totally fair!
