Trade Green, We can’t win with this guy.
For the love of god please fire stone and bring back morey
Green needs to have a MAJOR leap from last year. He’s not even on the top 50 current NBA players list.
Don’t mind building up the new coaching staff and I’m all for it; but to disparage the previous coaching staff is to me not warranted and unfair; the team was under instruction to tank; there were reports that Stone was encroaching in team practices; plus it looks like that Silas did not have that degree of control over the team like Udoka has now; if only Silas can speak out on what really happened
Lets look at the stats.
plus or minus means hes good at a skill or talent and negative means he isnt

Its 9 positives to 17 negatives. Jalen Green is not going to live up to a nimber 2 pick. Number 2 pick supposed to look almost like an anthony edwards, jimmy buckets, or even vintage Derick Rose. Jalen simply doesnt have that scoot henderson type of natural game where he wakes up and you know ge can win us the game just a matter of by how much. Nope i dont get that feeling from JG. Im more wondering is he gonna look good or disappear tonight. For these reasons Im out on JG. Hes not going to be a great player in this league. You cannot teach the IQ he needs to have great court awareness, team concept, decision making, and IQ. He just doesnt have IT.
Ill tell yall right now Scoot Henderson does. From what Ive watched he wakes up with a double double and keeps his team in the game before he even left his house yet. I watch how slow the game is for him and how he reads and thinks/reacts so quickly with the correct decisions Scoot is a number 1,2,or3 type pick not Jalen Green.
J.B 60m is only 24 after taxes 🥶
