I have finally lost FAITH in Jalen, we need to trade him.

LOL

Ok Bright eye...

When did I do this???

 

I’d trade Jalen for a star but not some old all star. It would have to be an allstar in his 20’s.

 

You would have to attach 1st round picks for that to happen

 

I would wait until next year to determine whether JG has a chance to be a star in the NBA. If not, we can always pay him market value as a RFA.

 

A suggestion for those fed up with player xyz

Do your due diligence. If you believe XYZ is worth more as a trade commodity than in the team, prove it up. review potential trade outcomes. It’s a small league with finite alternatives.

When you do this - I’ll think you’ll be more inclined to react with patience. Unless of course you delude yourself into believing we could get Anthony Edward’s.

 

Yeah... Why stop there?
Ask for a 20-sth blonde all-star with big t***, endless legs and an ass to die for.

 

When is it appropriate to use a capital letter, and when is it not?

 

I know a 'gotcha' thread when I see one.

 

hey they can’t say no if you don’t ask. Plenty of stupid GMs out there.

 

Jalen is still younger today than when Hakeem, Horry, Yao, Francis, and Mobley entered the NBA in their rookie years. Young players take time to develop especially when they are coming into the league at 18/19. I’ve seen enough of Jalen to say he has the ability to take over games and it’s just a matter of time before he becomes consistent. Finding players this young capable of putting up 40 on any given night and winning games doesn’t grow on trees. As much as I like Cam and Amen, neither has put up even one 30 point game. If we can stay patient with Jalen it will pay off.

 

Brooklyn would not offer Bridges right now, they would probably offer Cam Johnson, Schroeder, another role player and 2nd round picks.

They do not have many enticing players. Cam Thomas does not entice as well.

 

Um, yeah. You might have also notice that as a team we tend to play better against bad teams, and not so great against good teams. Not always, but usually. That's because we're somewhere in between right now: not really bad, but not really good.

So if the whole team usually plays worse against good teams, that means we have to trade everyone, right? That's how it works?

 

We need to trade Jalen so that we can open playing time for BKN pick to develop.
BKN pick can’t develop if he is coming off-the-bench.

 

They have to trade 1 or 2 in the future because every one of them is equally talented and some are equally flawed.......

Nobody is really let's say head and shoulders above anyone, Sengün was up till his injury but that was with the rookies struggling.

You are right that we should trade up for better players and not trade down because we want to get rid of them.

I think the journalists/experts before the season were wrong that Jabari would explode on Offense, he did better but nothing drastic from 12 ppg to 14 ppg, Udoka did run minor plays for him but not enough to say he values him much more than Silas did.

 

If he demands max extension. You definitely trade him for Bridges.

 

I'll top that off with a face looking like boss Adam Silver.

 

Jalen's streak bought him another year for me. Yea, his streak was all against bad teams or good teams missing key players, but he played amazingly well. The key for me is to see how he plays starting next year with Alpi back. If he follows his career pattern of playing like **** for an extended period to start the season then he should be traded at the deadline. If he plays well, meaning at least 50% of his streak consistently, then match whatever offer he gets in restricted free agency. That being said I would not lose a second of sleep if they moved him this offseason to capitalize on his streak while it is fresh in other GM's minds because his value may never be higher.
