I was thinking he sounds a ton like Dame.

I also feel like this interview, he sounded a lot more comfortable than he normally sounds. I love that.

I can't believe he gave an entire paragraph, not two sentences.

Those are compression shorts. Basically the same thing as underwear though.

I don't go into Hillsboro but knew they had a PB. If the wife passes through Beaverton, she always stops and brings home PB. I haven't had a Blimpie since driving back from SF several years ago, but I do remember Pogy's. That place was great.

There was a solo sub sandwich shop in inner-NE back in the day. Kinda near Grant as I remember a few Grant HS kids in there during lunch. I was thinking it was on NE Glisan, but I could be wrong.

Yes...not there anymore. Can't remember the name, I'll ask my brother.

I can't see Billups sitting him if he's earning minutes. We have no one on this team that is as gifted athletically (with the exception of strength). With that said, look at all of the comments from coach and teammates about how aggressive this kid is and how quick he is picking things up. You think the guy who was the number one rated recruit in his class before reclassifying is going to sit for three seasons before he makes a meaningful impact and you think that's the best case scenario?!? Ant was not close to as highly touted of a prospect, Ant had CJ in front of him and none of Nas, Hart, GP2 or Winslow are as good as CJ or more importantly as entrenched with this coach like CJ was with Stotts.

I agree that Shaedon will not play if that PT doesn't help this team win. I know that it's anything but a certainty that he'll get to that level this season because of the unknowns that surround him after not playing in games at Kentucky. I also know that on 6'6", ultra athletic wings with 7 foot wingspans who can shoot, handle the ball, finish and have an attacking mentality on both ends, the scouts don't miss too often. This isn't trying to project a big or a unicorn of some sort. People keep discounting the fact that he played with one of the best teams in college basketball last season and according to his teammate TyTy he was consistently the best guy on the practice court and would dominate the starters as part of the scout team.

I don't know if Shaedon will sniff significant playing time this season but I also don't know that he won't win the starting SF spot at some point this season either. We'll just have to wait and see. You seem to feel like you know that he can't have an impact on this team this season, I'm wondering if that's just an assumption based on his age and the fact that he hasn't played competitively in a while or if you've seen something that makes you think he's for sure nowhere close to being ready??? Honest question.

(Just bolded that last part because it's a longass post and if you don't want to read the whole fucking thing, I'd still like to know where you're coming from)

Thanks for bolding the important part. I'm not so good with the long reading..... that's EXACTLY why I don't think he will have an impact with us this season.

It's a fair assumption. Most 19 year old rookies don't have a huge impact on teams trying to make the playoffs and those guys usually have a full year of college competition. That being said, I really like Shaedon and am hoping for (definitely not expecting) him to buck the odds on this one.
