Sheed is 3 times the defensive player Memo is and is a legit low post threat that other teams have to respect. All around, he is just a much better basketball player.
I know everybody loves Memo, but he really does need to get a lot smarter about his game. It seems like he always comes out strong in the first, playing the way Larry wants him to play, getting in the paint, drawing fouls, and looking like a monster. Then he comes out of the game and when he gets back in he goes back to forcing jumpers and looking for outside shots. Everyone wants to make excuses for him but the fact is he is not THAT good of an outside shooter, expecially considering the damage he could be doing in the post if he stayed focussed.

good response but the opposing camp will say when memo puts up big minutes he puts up big numbers. L.B. has a short fuse with the kid,looks like there is two sets of rules there. as for sheed i think it was a great pickup but i have seen most of the blazer games living in the northwest and he isnt the player he used to be. he wants to drift to the 3pt line and loses his focus in games, he was surpassed there by zach randolph to the point where he was nowhere near the #1 option. larry obviously loves him, so i'm sure he'll get max minutes and shots, i just wonder how much better they are because of it.
