I never said he did but him and KPjr during our losing streak broke plays and isoed often, too often. You don't have to play like Harden to Iso all the time as much as Harden did. I guess that's not self evident, but there it stated for you. "If Jalen Green is isoing it's because he had no other choice. Jalen Green is not very good on Iso's, and I think he knows it. Jalen passes the ball very quickly when that first shot isnt there; he passes back to KPJ too quickly sometimes." You really believe this statement huh? Lets go back to the previous post where you said Jalen and KPj were taking similar shots to Garrison and Brooks. Well if that's the cast why were we losing? Why didn't we win 7 games back then against worse opponents than team we beat during the winning streak. Just seems odd. I'll let you ponder on that but I know you got some excuse. I'm not saying Jalen is bad by any means but it doesn't do you, him, or Rockets and favors to nut hug his every highlight and not want to see him improve. You act like the rookie kid is a seasoned veteran that doesn't make mistake. He does. Wood still does. The point is to want to see them approve and not hinder them looking for the next highlight at the expense of the team.
its not objective,its just wrong....what did you think was going to happen in a REBUILD & DEVELOPMENT year for a 19yr old rookie. Not to mention his last 5 games before injury he was playing better and playing well in lineups that didnt have the double bigs....if you alrdy ran out of patience in the first yr of a rebuild then your in for a rude awakening
I sincerely hope not, I'd imagine doing so would lead to tetanus upon tetanus and serious internal injuries haha.
are you gas lighting me? EVERYONE IS PLAYING BETTER BECAUSE THEIS IS NOT PLAYING AND WE HAVE BETTER SPACING! you guys are weird in this thread..
LOL idk how silly you sound crying about this 10 minutes.....I get bro he is good. Why did we lose so many games? Theis is really the scapegoat? For every game? Silliness.
Are you really tryi g to say Jalen has a better skillset than Harden? What do you mean Jalen is better than that? Jalen has no current skill that he is better than Harden at. I mean really WTF dude?
No, Theis shouldn't dictate this kids game. It's like you don't understand. The space is there. Dude need to put on some meat.
He's a better character than that, but you know what. Since you are so butt hurt, and feel the need to reply. I think going to run with it. lol Jalen's hops are better. Jalen was picked higher. I guess we will see though. I have a feeling Jalen will be Rockets longer than Harden was. Might break all his Rockets records. Does that infuriate you?
Sorry kid, it really is just an objective fact. You can be upset about it, but it won't change anything. Till Green starts playing like he belongs on an NBA court, he's going to be the worst player on the team. Me not expecting the team to be any good has nothing to do with the fact that Green is objectively performing worse than any other player on the team......and the reason those lineups weren't performig well had a LOT to do with having Green on the court. When he left the court, things always got better. Patience has nothing to do with conversations about what is the case right now. I fully understand that one day Jalen Green might learn how to play basketball and become a quality player. Right now he's not.
Na kid, it is not an objective fact. The objective fact is that every player including jalen green plays significantly better with more SPACE on the court and the stats back that up. Shooting percentages for the whole team were up in lineups without wood and theis, not just for other players but Green as well. Thats not to say green doesnt have deficiencies, and a lot to improve on, more notably the defensive end.
When you have scrubs like Green on the court who can't shoot 3's, it kills the space. Your excuse for why Green sucks is caused by Green sucking. EVERYTHING for the entire team got better in lineups without Green. His presence on the court tanks both the offense and defense. I get that love is blind, but the facts are simply against you.
lmaooo "sucks" "tanks" really objective facts to backup your inaccurate statement. I get that idiocy can be blinding, but the facts are simply against you.
"sucks" and "tanks" are accurate descriptors. When Jalen Green is on the court, he drops the team's offensive rating by 21.5 points and he increases the team's defensive rating by 6.5....meaning the team's offensive and defensive ratings get 28 points worse just having him on the court.....that's evidence of him "sucking" and "tanking" the team's ratings. And before we get the excuse of him being a rookie, he's not even good for a rookie....in fact, he's one of the worst. It doesn't really matter which metric you want to look at, TPA, RAPTOR, VORP, WS, BPM, PER....they all have Jalen Green as either the worst or at best second worst player on the Rockets.
