    Jalen doesn’t get to guard those guys cause he can’t. That’s my whole point. I’m not concerned with his one on one defense for him. I already know he can’t do that. That guy in that spot has to help. He needs to understand that he has to sag over and help. He still doesn’t get that. Stop pretending he shouldn’t know that by now cause i coach middle schoolers who know that

    I would love to know what coach was yelling at the ref...

    Thought he played very well too. Got to see his play making. We can't expect them to make the AAUSilas jump to organized basketball in less than 30 games.
    Wasn't bummed out about the loss.

    He came in with 5:14 left in the game and took one shot; a 3 pointer with rockets down 7 with minute 27 sec left. The one shot was the transition 3 which actually was a good shot.

    I applaud your accurate breakdown, it is something you don't often see on here.

    I really don't care if people hate green. I just get so fed up with the constant comments the minute he does something bad and then silence if he does something good.

    Sengunatics see him as a threat.

    He's not out there to score 26 pts. There is no why this offense is designed for Green to score 26 pts. He would have to score like 9/12 every night to do that. Ime isn't going to feature Green much now at least. Maybe in the future but now he's basically regulated to his rookie stand in be corner role.

    We are hanging in there with the contending teams, that is a sign of growth. We will get better at those little things that the good teams do to win close games. I like the direction we are heading in.

    I'm really proud of our guys. We went on the road, and hung in there with one of the favorites. Match up issues out top and inside, along with the refs...make it all the more impressive.

    He literally shot 54% for the field and 50% from 3 this game.

    I understand overall Jalen hasn't been shooting well recently but he clearly shot well this game so I dunno why you made that comment unless you are clueless AF.

    Played hug me defense on the other side of the court while guarding the worst shooter on the court who was behind the 3 point line while Giannis was working against one guy. That should NEVER EVER happen. Again, we teach 7th graders not to do that ****. If he was guarding Dame I’d get it..but he doesn’t cause we already know he can’t. So at least pretty please step over and help. That’s how defense is played

    None of that has a damn thing to do with what I wrote.
    Keep up or shut up.

    We all know why he’s not shoot much recently because he is afraid to get called out and he running away from the pressure. Of course we gonna be mad if he shoot 25 field goal if he is shooting poorly but if he is shorting over 50% why doesn’t he shoot more? Eye test prove he does get the play like he used to but he quickly pass to someone soon as he can’t get past by defender so he is still getting good amount of looks but now he is playing for the stats more than to score like before.

    Ironically,refs can punish coach and player by technical foul
    but no one can give refs a technical foul even someone made a lot of mistake like Scott Foster

    I will simply ask you take your own advice in regards to people who are tired of the constant whining about one player.
    Notice how I never said anyone had to stop yet you called me the forum police while telling me to get over it and not state my opinion or leave. Sounds like you are being the forum police lol.

    You've got the wrong guys on that. The Sengun guys want Jalen to be great. Most of them keep saying they want Jalen and Sengun to be Murray and Jokic.
