say, amenthesuperstar, do you have any recommendations for Craig Ackerman's cat's name? someone with strong opinions such as yourself would be a welcome addition to that thread. Maybe something like . . . Sourpuss? I'll leave it to you.
Unnecessary accusations again. What if he's been here for 2 weeks ? Doesn't he have the right to comment ? Why does it make you so mad when he expresses his opinion ? Doesn't he have the right to write what he wants ? For example, you write nonsense comments to whoever you want. And you think you're funny it kills me, man
The day people stop swinging WIDE in order to retaliate the opposing equally WIDE claims, we will capture the truth.
I still think he plays street basketball, has tough time adjusting to team ball. Unless he does what he did tonight 70% of the time, he ll be an inconsistent average player. And he would be damaging whatever team he is in...
Ayeee I just NOTICE they took away one rebound from Jeff Green and gave it to Jalen so he actually had a double double last night. 36 & 10 STATEMENT of the year. Tuff Where all the haters at that said Jalen Green isn't even the best Green in the team. Ol' head unc had only 1 rebound in 17 minutes of action. No points, assists, blocks or a steal. Jalen is BACK!
It's why he's so inconsistent. Too much variability in his play. His shot selection is low % but on days it falls it looks amazing. Still trading him and the 24 pick for Bridges if I could.
It's been nice to see Jalen play well the last two games, and I still genuinely would love to see him succeed. But what really concerns me is that even when he's "going off" against sub-par defenses and putting up 25+, he's still shooting abysmally from the 3-point line. He was 1-7 and 2-7 in those games, and he's a shockingly bad 5-38 in his last six games—13.2%! For the whole month of January, he's shooting 26%, and he's gotten worse each month since he shot a respectable 37.5% in November and we thought he was turning a corner. He's attacking more, which is great—that's what we want him doing. But you cannot be a competent score-first shooting guard in 2024 if you can't at least shoot like 34%-35% from the 3-point line consistently. Kid needs to be working on that jump shot in the gym like crazy right now. If he is, it's not showing up on game day.
The second half of Jalen’s first year was far, far better than the first half. I could see that happening again now that he seems more comfortable in Ime’s system.
