Exclusive Grade the #7 pick -Sharpe

[SharpesTriumph]

What grade do you give the Blazers?

 

[andalusian]

A for willingness to bet big, B for immediate help, so I voted accordingly.

 

[Mediocre Man]

On strictly the player pick with the remaining pick options, it was an A+ to me.

 

[SharpesTriumph]

Worst vote is a B.
Where are all the people delusionally criticizing his time at UK?

 

[Kell]

A+ go big or go home!

 

[Hoopguru]

Nothing wrong with a B till he starts his basketball career. At this point my grade is based on potential and wow factor.

 

[Stevenson]

I think this kid is going to be special.

 

[speeds]

A

You were in the rare position where you could swing for the fences on the highest risk prospect and went for it. Cool.

I’ll wait to vote until summer League.

That's not how the game works!

 

[PDXFonz]

Fine… B-

There were other options the team could have gone with, such as trading the 7 pick. Instead of trading for an already proven player, they took a chance on one of the players some may have had listed as a question mark.

Sharpe has Athleticism and a promising shot. I’m not thinking about his strengths, im thinking about his weaknesses. Hopefully we see early in Vegas that he has a high BBIQ. That is something which always separates players in the league. You can tell if someone is going to be legit by it pretty quickly. Right place, right time, doesn’t lose man or struggle moving around in a zone. Knows how to screen, where and when to pop or roll, Off ball movement, etc…

Poll closes before then.

I wish I could buy stocks as you wanted to vote. See how a stock does then grade a buying decision from weeks prior. I'd be the best stock analyst in history and a multi trillionaire.

Remember..Caleb Swanigan looked like an MVP in summer league his rookie season and Batum looked terrible his first summer league.

How do you grade an unscratched lottery ticket? What's delusional is confidently predicting his future.

 

[SheedSoNasty]

I’ll give it an A since he’s probably our best shot at landing a top 10 player like we did with Dame. He has the physical tools and upside to get there and it’s the most excited I’ve been about seeing a rookie since Dame.
