Green came a long way from the beginning of the season. I posted the other day how Green at 6'5" will eventually switch everything on defense. That clip shows him going around screens and most importantly fronting bigger players in the post. The future looks bright with Porter and Green much improved defensively and adding Bari/Tari. Can't wait!!
Yeah, I got blasted for comparing Jalen Green to Kobe/MJ before the season started. Blasphemy!! I saw what I saw......wasn't going to water it down for the sake of basketball puritans. They can just "Deal With It!" I know you saw much the same VC. Shades of Kobe in this kid.
No-one = no rockets fan bothered to reply. Draymond Green or Steph Curry would still be on top, maybe Westbrook.
Always made me laugh when people got so pissy over him being compared to Kobe. Anybody who couldn't see similarities in the way they (and other premier athletes) move was deluding themselves.
It wasn't so much "kind" as it was "degree". I'm a JG fan and I thought it was waaay too early for talk like that. And imo IT STILL IS!
Of course, but people were making out like it was a ridiculous comparison. I think we can quite happily say it's a valid comparison if you compare them at the same age, and there are lots of similarities in the way they move.
