OMG -- learn to fucking read -- I will concede this take was not very well put together but i NEVER EVER EVER said Franchise / AS caliber --

I will own the fact I do wish I could go back and make a better post that was not all over the place and not explained better etc but again please do not put words in my mouth -- thanks

I will say the more I wrote about Sharpe the one thing became crystal clear to me is that outside of his personal growth the fact we have a HC in Billups that mishandled him at times has not helped him in his growth. This is why I started to pivot to the fact I was not sure Billups was the right coach for him but we shall see with new coaches in the fold.

Whyachi -- your right i was kind of like Cronin and good take from you -- LOL

He averaged 16 PPG last year in limited games and was getting better every day. What exactly then, is REAL GROWTH?

Assuming you meant all-star-ish caliber is not much of a leap from there.....
 
I will return and make a better well thought out post but scoring is only one facet of a players game and this team will need Sharpe to be a solid defender too and know how to put himself into better positions not to get beat and such. However like I said will circle back on this and make my point clear but hope no hard feelings.

Just for context: Shae scored 43 points. Last year Trey Burke scored 53 at the same event:

Some context added to that is that Shae is obviously just getting some reps in after his GM has said twice this off season that his team is being built around him. Meanwhile that was everything Trey Burke was playing for this time last year, having already been out of the league for an entire season.

Shae had a game winning block last season. His defense is coming along fine.
 
I really believe his ceiling has no limits. Or the only potential limit would be his mentality. The only thing that can hold himself back from elite greatness is himself.
 
Probably the most gifted players on the roster but he has to earn any nods of achievement. As it is he could be Tracy McGrady or Vince Carter....I'm hoping for a healthy Tracy and not a highlight reel Vince...dunking and disappearing.

I would take either. Vince Carter an 8 time all star and 2 time all NBA selection. Tracy McGrady was a 7 time all star and 7 time all nba selection... he was also a two time scoring leader. If we have TMac without the back problems I would be ecstatic. It was TMac's fourth season out of highschool where he made a huge jump... I'm hoping for the same for Shaedon.
