This might be the worst pre-draft interview clip I have ever seen. First, he does not seem to know a single player on the Sacramento Kings, including De’Aaron Fox who played for the same school and coach as Sharpe. Most star players are big fans of the NBA entering the league, but it seems that Sharpe instead believes that the NBA should be a big fan of him. In spite of his highest level of basketball played being the EYBL Peach Jam, he believes he can come in and give proven NBA players like De’Aaron Fox and Domantas Sabonis “their little shine” by finding them when they are open. This is a wild intersection of bad awareness and gross arrogance, as if he is above the NBA without even proving that he can be a competent college basketball player.

Accidentally downvoted you, my bad.
Interview was pretty cringe and he came across totally unprepared. Pretty hilarious the Kings posted that.
Don't forget how he can "guard 1 through 5" even though highschool kids smoked him regularly....

I think that's an extremely pessimistic take on Sharpe, but I also don't think it's wrong. Honestly the irrational confidence doesn't bother me if I were looking for him to come in and be the #1 guy. It just seems like a really poor fit with what the Pels are building, poor enough that I don't think they should draft him if he falls to 8. Take your guy or trade back.

I've cooled on Sharpe to the point I dont really want to take the gamble, even though I might regret it, but some of the hate comes off like "bitch eating crackers" energy with him

Sharpe is going to be a total bust. I hope someone drafts him ahead of us, so it'll leave a better prospect for our pick.

How much of this is him being a dipshit and how much is him intentionally doing things to have the Kings pass on him?
If someone tried to pull this shite on about 27 teams in the league, it would make me not want them.
Pulling this on the Kings may be a gambit to force himself to a better situation.
Edit - Don’t particularly want him at this point but I think it is a valid question as to whether he is intentionally fricking with the Kings to go elsewhere.

Said it a while back--I hope he drops and flops.
Don't want this "players not playing" thing to become a trend. Even more so now that he has admitted that it was his decision not to play and "it worked out--since he's talking to NBA teams now"

Damn that whole blog makes you not want to touch Sharpe with a 10 foot pole.
Especially the long armed SG part that almost always busts.

Holy shite. It's worse than I thought.
