Scouting report has figured out Sharpe.....they've taken him out of the game ...he has more fouls than shots in the first half.

Comes with the territory. They did the same to Dame when he was young, then CJ, then Ant. Trial by fire. This is how he learns.

Or, and hear me out, it's 1 game and the Pelicans know there is no one on the team who can run the offense for shit?

figured him out, let's not overreact?

When the Pelicans stifled Damian, did the scouting report figure him out?

Good lord, this place...
 
Sharpe doesn’t even attempt to move around or anything

fuck man he’s disappointing
Get a fucking grip dude. Last night he was the second coming of MJ and tonight he's disappointing? He's a 19 year old rookie that has been told or at least aloud to stand in the corner for most of the season. I'm not surprised when he reverts back to it when his teammates aren't getting him involved.
 
If not for Damian Lillard, the refs are doing their best to drive me away from the NBA as entertainment. We really need more "ex players" to become refs because there are some clueless refs to the point star players are willing to take big fines to call them out this season
 
Yeah. If this team is going to be a contender, maybe one or two of these guys other than Sharpe will be on the roster, and they will be at the end of the bench and out of the rotation.

I can't believe I'm going to write this, but I like Knox's game better than Reddish's and I think if he's getting meaningful minutes next year it means we aren't very good. Thybulle can't even make layups; I've come to the opinion that he's a JAG -- as good as he can be in certain situations defensively, his offensive inability makes him a net negative player.

Sharpe is going to need to become a lot more assertive. For all that talent, he plays a Type B game too much of the time ... if you get him out there with a Type A, he might thrive. Then again, he might defer to the Type A guy all the time, too.

It's like the people posting on here are as inconsistent as you can expect a 19 year old to be.

I don't think it's overreacting to see that a team has game planned for a rookie and locked him up. Yeah...when the Pelicans stifled Dame they locked him up too...that's my whole point. "good lord this place? lighten up....it's a game, Feel free to talk about it even in "this place"

Tend to agree. Nobody else out there is making anything so they can make much else happen. Keon certainly didn’t run the offense any better than Archie did.

Who is running plays for Shaedon?

Archie?

There is no offense right now, so really, it's not so much that they've figured him out, it's that there is no movement with the team, and no screens being set or utilized.

People are far too quick to make claims.

It should be a bannable offense to use those words in the same year.

Michael Holton made the same claim but he's paid to...I'm just in the cheap seats.
 
For those of you who were talking about how ugly last night's game was... what do you think of what we just witnessed in this first half?
 
Their trivia question confused me...they said that the first FG was Ron Knight...I thought it was Jim Barnett?

Or was it the first POINT was Barnett, and he made a FT?

Seems like that second layer of armor on the tank slowed it down a bit.
 
Chauncey, no adjustment how he can get his best player Sharpe some shots… great coaching

Yea that’s what I noticed about Sharpe. I could understand if there was guys better than him playing with him right now but with this sorry group he still plays scared
 
Why can't Sharpe bring the ball up the court ??

thanks Billups.
 
Sharpe literally didn’t move from the corner on that possession lol

Knox Thybulle Reddish are all irrelevant scrubs.

Last year people were excited about Winslow, Diddy and Keon. None of these guys matter at all.

Blazers have a bleak future. Sharpe and this year's pick are the only players with potential to change this franchise long term outlook.

Knox and Reddish I could see calling irrelevant scrubs, but seriously dude, Thybulle has made all defensive teams twice.
 
Although this team is not very good right now, the Tank v2.0 is more enjoyable to watch than Tank v1.0. At least we’re not subjected to watching CJ Elleby, Keljin Blevins, Brandon Williams and Elijah Hughes on a nightly basis.
