Game Thread 2022-23 PRESEASON GAME #3 - BLAZERS VS MACCABI RAANANA - OCTOBER 6, 2022 - THURSDAY - 7:00 PM (PDT)

[julius]

Greg showing he's not ready for prime time...

Little has been ok, but isn't standing out.

Sharpe and Keon are standing out.

 

[riverman]

Sarr looks like a serviceable backup big

 

[blazerkor]

After tonight I think the rotation should look like:

Dame, Ant, Hart (Shaedon by the all star break), Grant, Nurk, Shaedon, GP2, Justise, Nas, and Sarr.

Keon, Trendon, Jabari, Brandon, Eubanks and GB3 can get in where they fit in during blowouts and foul trouble.

 

[Idog1976]

We need to sign Sarr if we can.

Yep that's what I just logged into say. Sharpe and Keon looking good tonight, but Sarr looks like he would be a great 3rd big.

 

[blazerkor]

We need to sign Sarr if we can.

We can and unless we have one of the worst lapses of judgment we will.

 

[illmatic99]

terrific read out of the double team by shaedon that time after forcing it the previous possession.

seriously.. this kid learns quickly. never seen anyone correct acute errors that quickly

 

[blazerkor]

Shaedon doubled and makes the right pass for the hockey assist.

 

[DDolla]

Nassir this game looks like a bigger Westbrook. Can’t shoot then just out of control bully himself and drive for buckets.

You got Sarr over Eubanks? Not disagreeing just asking. I missed a decent chunk of this game. What I saw of Sarr here at the end looks good, very solid work and I want him off the bench.

Yeah, he has the length that we would be lacking with Drew. He impacts the game instead of just managing it.

 

[julius]

I know he's still recovering from his surgery (a bit), but is anyone else kinda "meh" with how Little has been?

(same with Hart tbh)

 

[illmatic99]

that first step is insane

 

[blazerfan11]

I wonder how many minutes of live gameplay have been blocked out by replay.

Haha well now *I* have Sarr over Eubanks so lol!

 

[blazerkor]

I haven't agreed with a lot of things that Holton has said tonight but the fact that Shaedon is ready made and doesn't need a season to pick shit up like CJ did was his most astute observation I remember him making tonight.

 

[blazerkor]

Sarr lacks offensive skill but his length, athleticism and effort make him a better fit for our PT behind Nurk than Drew.

 

[UKRAINEFAN]

Good to see that by sarr; one worry about him was his toughness. BTW he shot over 40% on threes last year in college.

 

[Natebishop3]

The parade of scrubs.

I like Sarr a lot though.

 

[DDolla]

Shaedon with that smooth looking jumper

 

[Natebishop3]

Welp, I know this isn't exactly competition.... but I'd say it's not horribly worse than summer league.

It's still an impressive showing from Shaedon.

 

[blazerkor]

This is Shaedon's coming out party and I hope he views it as such.

 

[illmatic99]

oh boooo

come on let the kid get 30

 

[Natebishop3]

Okay, Sharpe is out. I think that'll do it for me lol

 

[julius]

Well, Shaedon's out, so now we can just make fun of Sly and HCP.

 

[DDolla]

Blazers Legend Shaedon Sharpe

 

[illmatic99]

Shaedon ends the night with 27 pts, 2 rebs, 1 ast, 3 stls, and 2 blks while going +29 in just 22:41.

Shot 10-13 from the field and 1-4 from 3, 6-6 FT.

This is what we wanted to see in SL.

 

[illmatic99]

there will be tons of growing pains and duds from his rookie season, but all I want from him are flashes... like tonight.

i just dunno if he can even get 15 mpg on a regular basis though.

 

[twobullz]

Didn't get to watch the game tonight, but notice that Trendon is back and the Blazers win big. Nice to see all the young guys were able to get a lot of run tonight
