  1. Professional, absolutely. Reliable? Aaron Rose, I don’t think that word means what you think it does.

    Lemme tell ya seeing GTJ being one of my best guys on my fantasy basketball team over the last week has been very… interesting.

    He’s very promising to me, I’d hate to let him go and see him thrive somewhere else, similar to how Blazers fans felt last year when he was going off.

    inconsistency seems to be common in younger players.. gotta remember he’s only 23. I’d imagine around 25-26 he would be playing how he’s been playing over the last week through a whole season.

    He’s showing the rest of the league as well.

    GTJ is not reliable, in fact early on in the season I saw that he tended to score a lot when we lost and barely score in our wins.

    He’s playing well as of late and I hope it continues (this is a contract year for him) but this article is little more than a fluff piece to get a team to bite on a trade.

    Hopefully his recent play will drive up the cost to acquire him via trade before the deadline. There are a number of teams that would love him for a playoff run

    Now they just need him to offer to stick to that role for about 18 per and we can keep him.

    Reliably “reliable” for 3 weeks and then reliably horrible for the rest of the season. This is yet another SI static run from the FO.

    I really don’t want to trade him though I think his return is going up. I just think this will be one we look back on with regret but I trust our FO so I am rocking with whatever they do

  9. hypespud

    Yea, almost like we should pay him instead of FVV…

  10. I’m pretty sure GTJ is showing every team except the Raptors what he is worth. GTJ is a solid player, but he needs to be traded. He is fifth in the pecking order and is the easiest to replace.

    There’s absolutely no way we should trade Trent Jr. He’s a good scorer and a good perimeter defender.

  12. reliable? We gonna say the same thing when he goes on a cold streak for a whole month?

  13. God I really hope we keep. Been really consistent. Extreme pro out there at 23. Man has put in the work ! Would be a shame to trade him or have him walk.
