I think the concern for Shaedon is overrated.
He's not playing selfishly because Chauncey is coaching a team-basketball style and he's too young to just ignore that and take over games.
God I miss Brandon
Can podcasters, pundits in general, please stop evaluating players off the cuff. When Lillard finished his rookie year, and I'm using Lillard here because the franchise is recovering from moving him, he had played over 6000 minutes of competitive basketball (college and pro combined). How many minutes have Scoot and Sharpe played? And neither of them had any time interning at a collegiate or international level, so what do you want from these guys? And this is where tanking is harmful because, in my opinion, it hampers development. Don't use games or years but minutes played and then discuss how the playing context influences a players development.
sprague, although not as black plagued and cringy as marang is still guilty by association. Skipping this episode.
Shae always has his best games against teams who drop the defender. It funnels him to his spots and he loves taking on shot blockers. Mike is spot on, an improved handle will unlock his game against teams who take away his strengths.
Stop not Including Deni when you guys speak about the young players, he's younger than Toumani. Denis probably been the Blazers best overall player last few games imo , imagine if he actually gets the ball more and shoots more , idk it could be something he's only 23 and the Blazers traded 2 first round picks for him, try to unlock his fullest potential, he only can really do that if he's involved in more plays and he shoots some more. Dude he's younger the Toumani.
The future starting line up I want to see is:
Scoot
Shaedon
Toumani
Deni
Clingan
Deni is unproven imo. He is hardworking and helps our locker room, but his turnovers have concerned me. Not that Shaedon and Scoot are any more proven at this point. We have invested in Deni tho so he should factor into discussions of our future core
You still need your star forward. Shae can be a 2nd option. Scoot can be a solid facilitator/team leader. Plenty of long wing role players.
Enjoyed seeing and hearing your takes, Mr. Sprague. Please visit again soon!
Deni will be the glue that keeps this team on track doing a bit of everything thats needed.
