    Hakeem was special. Imagine him in the modern NBA.

    They need to go ahead and bring Jalen off the bench. He may be more productive that way. There's no way he should start If he isn't good enough to finish games. A lot of great players started their careers off the bench. If he performs well, his value will be restored. Playing this horribly when the team is finally having a winning season isn't a good look for him. It's time to alter the starting lineup.

    He would take it to another level because nobody could touch him. God Mode basically.

    Jabari Smith Jnr last 3 games
    27.0 ppg
    10.7 rpg
    1.7 bpg
    59 percent shooting
    60 percent from three
    91 percent from the free throw line

    lol all those fans who give up early in a players career are looking foolish now that he is on fire

    Sengun/Smith 63 points on 21/35 shooting 16/20 ft's very efficient from the duo.

    He is why you don't give up on players too early. I'm hoping Jalen can turn it around too although he is making it difficult to believe lately.

    At this point, even I can't argue with making Jalen a 6th man for a stretch.. It may be time!

    The team's defense looks so much better when Uncle Jeff is on the floor. If Jeff were 5 years old younger, we would be yelling we found our starter. Stone needs to do something before the trade deadline.

    lol no it doesn't. Time to move on. Silas didn't have Jeff Green, VanVleet or Brooks to help with veteran leadership. These players are young, they don't just flick a switch and become great in their first year.
