    KPJ career games over 30pts - 9
    Jalen Green games this season over 30pts - 10

    "They're the same player"

    Sure they are.

    Same type of player, only KPJ is better.

    30pt games are a dime a dozen in this modern era - KPJ is not scoring first, he is scoring and passing - but I am certain if he took as many shots as Green with his higher TS% he would score more points than Green, and he leads the team in steals as the best perimeter defender too.

    KPJ>Green

    Seems like Green is better suited for the 6th man....

    People comparing Green to Kobe, Curry or any other great player are going to be sadly disappointed as he falls well well short of that. Zack Lavine or maybe Bradley Beal is his ceiling....if....IF he commits to learning fundamentals.

    Green isn't a Batman, he is a Robin.

    he said "time to discuss", not "time to trade", so peeps are discussing. No need to ban people for starting discussions. When you're the worst team in the league, ppl will be discussing stuff like that.

    that actually sounds quite like a kpj Stan argument. You just need to decorate it a little bit:

    since kpj played his first two years as a shooting guard and the number of minutes he played last two seasons is less than green, he actually had more 30 point games than green, considering how hard his life is and he plays with scrubs. He also had a 50 point game. I wonder when will green have one?

    KPJ is a better offensive player than Green right now. You can make the argument he is better than Sengun. But to argue KPJ is our best perimeter defender is not accurate and not close. Eason, Smith, Tate all much better.

    Green really needs to slow down a bit in on the court. Focus on a compact and consistent shooting form. He has been trying harder on D but really needs more functional strength and mass.

    Still think he blows up around age 24.

    Dumb post...we need a true point guard and Coach who can execute plays...more than anything, we need to trade KPJ for a true point guard that can make the offense easier for the rest of our roster

    Absolutely hilarious. What a clown. As if you thought a person couldn't embarrass themselves anymore DD comes out dressed as a clown and falls on his face again.

    Also, lol at KPJ being better. Maybe at throwing food. Quitting at halftime, getting in fights at strip clubs, beating up family members and being a complete trash human being

    It all makes sense now. One platform , be astonishingly hateful and ridiculous but on the other attempt to sound sympathetic sometimes toward the 21 yr old , 22ppg player player... Exposed!
