Sharpe is pretty terrible at talking to the media, so I'm not expecting much-still interested, though.
 
They never show presenting their jerseys lol
 
Best part of the PC: "I like the way he (SS) moves his feet (on defense)" -CB. I don't think Billups BS's much.

I saw a video which SS LITERALLY played matador defense on multiple plays.
 
If Walker is getting a guaranteed contract that means we only have two roster spots as of now assuming Ant and Nurk come back and Bledsoe does not.
 
Jabari Walker is listed anywhere around 6’8”- 6’9”. He doesn’t look 2-3.5” taller than Shaedon.
 
Interesting quote was Cronin outlining the types of players they’re gonna target in trades/FA. Seems like they’re gonna target guys that play with a competitive edge, but he also said they wanna upgrade the overall talent. I don’t think we’re gonna be seeing any more Zeller types lol

Uh, Zeller is not talented but I wouldn’t question his competitiveness/effort.

He’s officially 6 foot 8 in shoe. He doesn’t look like he 2 inches taller than Sharpe. Maybe sharpe stood on his tippy toes

Sharpe’s hair makes him look taller but I’d say Walker has him by a couple inches.

Number one takeaway for me was Cronin telling everyone of us, "The goal is to win a championship it's plain and simple for us, we're not content (you know) making the playoffs year to year and maybe winning a round or two. Our goal is to grow and take this to the peak and so I guess it's easy to say we could have lost in the Western Conference Finals last year and we still weren't good enough. So I know that covers a lot of things but our goal is to push this to the limit..."

That's fucking awesome! That's saying straight up that he knows we've been treading in the water of mediocrity and he is not cool with that at all. He blatantly said that maybe they could have made it to the WCF and lost last year but he obviously has no interest in that. He wants it all. That's very encouraging as a fan and you can just tell that it's not spin and it's not lip service. This dude means what he says. What a breath of fresh air.

The video from when he was a high school kid and he did the hesitation hop before every drive? We need to burn that video it's OLD. In that video the guy showed clips of Harden to show what Sharpe should learn to do instead. Someone posted a recent workout video on here where Sharpe was working on exactly what that guy was saying. He looked good.

I just realized you are probably talking about what looked like AAU video? Yeah, that was some lazy shit. Sharpe practiced with Kentucky last season. No way the coaches let him get away that. If he didn't move his feet and maintain good position in his Blazers workout, they wouldn't have drafted him.

Billups has likely seen much more that whatever video you did.
