The "Sharpe just did some crazy shit!" thread

[Natebishop3]

Elaborate please. He's a rookie. How is he the next Gerald Green?

He's saying that he's just gonna be a dunker and that's it.

Shae has a smooth stroke, sure, but he's way more athletic than Gerald. I don't see the correlation.

Green was actually a pretty good shooter later in his career.

I think you're forgetting how insanely athletic Gerald Green was.

I didn't forget how athletic he was. I still don't understand how they are the same. Sharp is 19...

I didn't make the comparison. I'm just saying it's not really accurate to say that Shaedon is way more athletic than Gerald Green.

Let Aldo speak for himself then. It's a stupid comparison.

I don't think it's unfair to say that Gerald Green is his floor. A super athletic player that never really puts it together as a star.

Ok sure. GG is his floor.

He's 19. Why are we comparing him to someone that wore a Blazers jersey for ~40 games? Fuck that. Can we let his flag fly? Dunk the ball.

Aldo isn't really comparing. He's predicting.

They both jump high, and didn't go to college?

 

[Fairly-Hard]

Aldo isn't really comparing. He's TROLLING.

FTFY

It is what it is.

It is Eeyore.

Way more athletic? Do you remember Gerald Green? dude was an AMAZING dunker

Maybe I just have a bad taste in my mouth from when he was on the blazers and averaged his lowest minute total in his NBA career.

You're thinking of Gerald Henderson, not Gerald Green.

I definitely was.

I was confused because he mentioned playing with us for 40 games..... I thought maybe he meant Sharpe had only played 40 games.

Yeah, I made a mistake. My bad.

 

[HailBlazers]

Sharpe just gripped it and ripped it.

Gerald did the cupcake dunk, this one is ridiculous...

 

[julius]

does anyone else hear Lamar trying to say something, but it just comes out as noises because it's so crazy?

Also, does anyone else hear @Travis Demers call and instantly think of Cartman saying "you will respect my authoritah"? (not meant as a diss to Travis, just my juvenile sense of humor whenever I hear someone yell "authority").

4 straight games scoring double figures. Just looks so much more comfortable out there

 

[maxiep]

He is certainly progressing much more quickly than I expected.

Because of his finger. People aren't factoring in his injury. This post lays it out quite nicely.

He has either outperformed or is on par with some of the other star wings in their rookie years that I wanted to track his numbers against.

Shaedon: 20.3 mpg, 7.9 pts, 2.5 rebs, 0.5 asts, 47.9% fg, 35.6% 3pt, 10.3 PER

Brown: 17.2 mpg, 6.6 pts, 2.8 rebs, 0.8 asts, 45.4% fg, 34.1% 3pt, 10.3 PER

George: 20.7 mpg, 7.8 pts, 3.7 rebs, 1.1 asts, 45.3% fg, 29.7% 3pt, 13.0 PER

He also seems to be dunking harder so maybe theres something to that

Yeah I'm sure the finger injury hurt his confidence a ton.
