the story really is the Greenies' weirdness. Fans being pissy about the worst player on the team is so common it's practically a banal cliche. It's been played over and over again for all sports teams, including on this site. The unhealthy infatuation and obsession, the devensiveness, the lashing out at critics, all of this is quite weird.
I'm replying to DD, who is advocating for other guys to take Jalen's minutes. I personally think he should get around 32 mpg.
Oh no, woe is me I am getting smash for saying dumbass sht Daroko bust potential, questioning a player if he was manly enough to b a superstar and other dumb sht. U say dumb sht u get called out. it's not that hard of a concept. Being a critic is one thing, yea green has a sht shooting, he's a poor defender. Normal folks not gonna bat an eye. But when folks like u say dumb sht like he has 0% chance at being a superstar, he looks like daroko bust potential, he's isn't manly enough don't act all surprised posters call u out on it.
Acting like a victim when folks call u out for saying dumb sht Daroko bust potential 30ish games into a rookie's career. Pathetic.
Typical DD - doesn't actually watch the the thing he claimed to have watched, can't back up his cranky old white dude BLURT and has to retreat, flailing furiously by pointing to net rating data from November. It's been clear if you've watched the games or followed the team that Green has picked up defensive intensity in the latter half of January, one of the few things that went right for him that month- despite the fact the Rockets, who have utter nonentities in terms of rim protection, have an abysmal defense overall. Again if you watch the games and pay attention to this aspect, you know this. Lots of people were posting about it in real time in the game threads. But, don't let reality stand between DD and one of his entitlement soliloquies.
The game was a blowout loss, more like resting him. Although Green looks like he can run up and down the court full tilt for 40 mins straight without a blow.
Unhealthy infatuation and obsession? Toxic fans? What's everyone going on about? Ben Simmons can't even be critiqued without @D-rock whining about Jalen Green for no reason whatsoever. It's funny. That's probably just him exhibiting patience though right? We really do need to teach him the definition of that word. I just find it strange is all. Anyone that seemingly defends the kid or posts something positive is met with vitriol and negativity. They're labeled ignorant unintelligent cultists that only support one player and not the team when that's clearly untrue. And for what reason exactly? Because he hasn't met expectations? Because Even Mobley isn't here? Is that what everyone is still so upset about? I honestly don't get it.
yep he can run but his quality of play decreases due to not being accustomed to nba travel and playing huge minutes and this much games .. he struggles for a reason
Pretty much. Jalen Green has been pretty disappointing and they never wanted him in the first place. Mobley is killing it and they can't get over it.
