    Yeah, let’s not suck each others nuts yet. I’m gonna need more than one game to change my mind on an entire second season that has shown zero progress.

    It looks like players like Edwards give him issues. If he can close the gap by 8-10lbs that should help. He will never weigh as much as him though.

    Honestly those comments he quoted of yours kinda shows that you are no arbiter of talent evaluation and have a VERY aggressive agenda against Green that makes you very far from objective.

    You should honestly just be a Cavs fan at this point.

    How do you figure that? I have been 100% right on Jalen so far since before the draft when people like the guy quoting me was comparing him to Kobe.

    lol I’m more of a Rockets fan than any of you JOF will ever be. Like, when I stan for an individual player at least I pick the ones that are actually the best on the team.

    wait weren’t you the one hating on Harden, the second best player in franchise history? Maybe you are the one who needs a different team before judging others.

    Yeah let’s look at his numbers for the entirety of the season. Efficiency is down, every advanced metric is flat- which is deceptive since he had a much better second half last year vs first half, which means his numbers this year have regressed vs last years second half.

    Any one not disappointed with Jalen this year has to be deluding themselves. One good game, and I’ll give him credit for that, doesn’t come remotely close to making up for all that. Maybe put together a good week, or month, or gasp season.

    Pfffft. Green potential to b great is hindered by playing alongside kpj. Look how both Smith green and sengun look playing without the head honcho offense. I believe that if we had a proper pg or focus more on the sengun offense green and smith will look better.

    Again, become a Cavs fan for the sake of yours and everyone's mental health on this message board. We have been ad nauseam over these talking points over and over and over and over and over.


    Just go become a Cavs fan.

    But studious ones would be comparing their same age years and natural gifts while simpletons would be comparing Kobe career apex vs. a year and some change of JG4

    What angle are you coming from? Kobe avg 7ppg and 15ppg and 19 or 20ppg in first 3 seasons so what is the big diff. outside of Kobe being draft day traded to a 50 + win team because he didn't want to go to bottom feeder while Green wanted to be drafted by either bottom feeder holding top two selections?

    And that ego of being so called right smells hella foul

    EXACTLY. 99% of his takes on Green are purely driven by him wanting to be initially right before the 2021 draft.

    Ego is the most powerful drug on earth and its our biggest foe(of Self) in history of physical existence

    Let me take a wild guess...... he wanted Mobley right?

    Let’s stop mentioning Kobe, that’s insulting. Just any half way decent player, fringe allstar, improve by leaps their first few years after coming into the league. The only people who don’t are the ones who don’t amount to much. Guess which one Jalen is tracking to.

    Anyone who had eyes and a brain and was a fan of their own team wanted Mobley. The only people who wanted Green were the YouTube highlights watchers and 13 year old IG followers.

    Edwards came into the league with essentially 220 pounds vs 175-180.

    Comparisons are just that, nothing to get bent out of shape in your feelings

    Where did You view Kobe after 7ppg rookie year going into his second season?

    Did you freak out out when he started in the all star game with 15ppg but not starting for his own Lakers team? Did you tell others to stop the Jordan comparisons since he walked n talked n played just like second 3peat version of Jordan?

    This is blatantly false.

    You don’t need to insult people who disagree with you. You’re not some pro scout, you’re a dude on the internet who would rather be right about Jalen than for him to succeed, which is sad, but I digress.
