    Well to Green’s credit, unlike other top prospects like Cade and Barnes who received world class strength training at Montverde Academy and the like, Green was saddled with third world equipment and training regimen growing up in the Philippines, so as hard as he tried and worked (Mamba mentality!) he simply could not achieve the same results due to being held back by his upbringing, much like the Dirks and Yaos of the past. This is why he has so much more room to grow now that he has NBA level training finally!

    At least I think that’s what happened! …

    EGo starts out of position at SF.

    Green starts at SG.

    How is EGo preventing Green from developing? Green also averages more minutes per game.

    This BS narrative blaming everyone else BUT Green is asinine.

    There is no player taking Green's minutes.

    ZERO.

    Green is the starting SG and has the 2nd highest MPG on entire roster.

    Stop the insanity, there is no "steal" going on here.

    I was willing to be patient with Green, knowing he would need years to rebuild his body and his game to reach his potential.

    However, I'm ready to trade his ass now because he's not worth the pollution and low IQ that comes along with the Green Only Fans.

    What was special about this? Wasn't that great tbh just a basic crossover that really wasnt that tight, fast or explosive. I mean it worked so props but I mean, really...?

    And fans having nothing to do with the player. Greens a kid from Fresno, a bunch of middle age losers on a forum don’t represent him lol

    You are confusing a team competing for a play in spot with a team trying to get a high draft pick.

    Are you going to hold Wood and KPJ or any other player to those same standards because then we'd run out timeouts real quick.

    Patience with the player and patience with fans is not the same.

    And patience does not equal blind faith.

    And patience does not mean there is no frustration with lack of progress or consistency of play.

    There are degrees to this.

    Stick to the memes.

    I can't get behind the thought of trading a #2 pick 37 games into their career because they can't stand any optimism.

    Nothing really. I’d like to see Green dribble a couple times and cross up his defender to the rim more often. What I usually see, dribble a couple times in places, goes nowhere, picks up ball and passes to guy next to him, wasting 10 sec on shot clock. Stuff you usually see at your local Y with people with zero bag.

    You don’t give up on Green and dump him in a trade right now, but, if the rumors were true and a guy like Haliburton was available I would trade Green for him in a heartbeat. Would never happen though
