[Hoopguru]

Lets win this game!

 

[AldoTrapani]

Honestly if Scoot can’t shoot for shit why not just draft Amen or Asur Thompson? Atleast you get height and incredible defense. Plus the passing is the same if not better than scoot

 

[Paine Tablet]

Damn, this makes me sad. Because 2 way Shaedon would have been the perfect compliment next to Dame.

Imagine Amen at the 3.

We need defense at all five positions.

 

[Whyachi]

Ayton eye gouged Cade

 

[maxiep]

Let's hope Scoot's ankle sprain isn't a high one.

 

[B-Roy]

We need defense at all five positions.

We could have had Ayton and one of the Thompson twins.

 

[Natebishop3]

The fact that we have so many more FTAs and it’s tied is hilarious.

 

[riverman]

Skylar Mays was a smart pickup

Why would we want a role player?

Damian and Grant would consume most of the shots though. Sharpe has always looked better when Dame was out, no coincidence.

Thus far it looks like Ausar is the better of the two, even though he went later.

 

[TYDame]

Camara playing tons of minutes

 

[illmatic99]

1 rebound for Jerami.

In 34 minutes.

You have to try to be that useless on the boards at his height.

 

[Idog1976]

Why would we want a role player?

They look a lot better than role players, especially Ausar did you see that stat about Ausar's first four games? Only Duncan, Wilt, Shaq and Hakeem did what he did in terms of rebounds and blocks in their first four games.

 

[beast blazer]

Dame is getting some hate on Twitter, people saying they shouldn't have trade Holiday for him. I understand that, because when Dame isn't shooting well, he's a negative. Holiday was an all nba defender.

 

[B-Roy]

Dame/Shaedon/Thompson/Grant/Ayton is a vicious lineup if Shaedon is a star. Ant off the bench.

Damian and Grant would consume most of the shots though. Sharpe has always looked better when Dame was out, no coincidence.

You're basing this off one rookie season where Shaedon's role was sit in the corner. He would have a completely different role this year.

 

[Natebishop3]

Sharpe is legit.

 

[Everything Beagle]

Dr Shae filling up the stat line tonight! 24/7/5 so far!

Why would Dame want another 20 year old rookie?

4 games in the dude is showing considerable growth and was definitely having his best game before spraining his ankle and you want one of the Thompson twins when every scout thought and probably still thinks that Scoot has the higher ceiling and floor.

 

[Ripcity4life77]

Grant never met a rebound he liked so he tends to avoid them unless they fall right in his hands -- LOL

 

[beast blazer]

Dang, Bucks getting smashed by the Raptors.....

 

[Natebishop3]

Sharpe is getting those Star calls.

 

[illmatic99]

Shaedon realizing he can get to the line now is like a revelation. This is Broy reincarnated.

 

[B-Roy]

Someone is getting kicked out of the arena LOL

 

[riverman]

Sharpe is clearly the franchise player of this era

 

[Natebishop3]

Toumani is locking up Cade.

 

[Natebishop3]

Weak foul.

 

[Idog1976]

I like the thought by Sharpe but perhaps a bit too far out. Edit: meaning the pass to Ayton.
