    What was Jalen supposed to say?

    "Nah bruh, that boy TRASH!"

    "Wouldn't Mind" isn't the most resolute endorsement either.

    PG said at this point, Jalen needs to learn on his own having the defense double team or even triple team him. And he thinks Harden joining would stunt Jalen's growth in that regards. PG did say having Harden join would help elevate Jalen's game, but Jalen already went through the fire so it would be better if he continues growing without Harden's help. Jalen said he agrees with PG's take and that Harden joining would help and hurt at the same time.

    I would take Scoot Henderson, from the G League. He is the PG that the Rockets need. I am against a Harden return. Been there, done that.

    Jalen wants someone on the team that shoots worse than him to take the heat off him. I see what you're doing there Jalen!

    He'll say, "See?! He's a Top 4 pick and he can't shoot either. Get off my back!" Nah. We gonna stay on your butt til you get it all figured out breh. LOL

    PG manipulating that conversation--lol! Is he trying to get JH to LAC? Not sure they have any cap room, but seems like he would have tried to set it up a little differently than getting the young man in sound byte hell.

    Defenses don't need to triple team Jalen Green.

    I mean, back off him or funnel him into traffic, where he is a very low efficiency finisher. Rinse & repeat.

    Harden's dickriders already want Green to be traded after he said he says Harden will hurt the team's growth. lmao

    People reading too much into this. What he says or thinks doesn’t factor into what the front office decides

    Harden would make Green look even more inefficient than he already does when a guy who knows how to finish at the rim shows up. Green doesn't want to be out shined or exposed.

    Harden cant finish at the rim amazingly anymore. Im fairly certain Green will be better than Harden in this regard in 2023-2024.

    Jalen just sort of going along with PG who practically put words in his mouth.
