    Soft ass loser on and off the court, this is actually great for the organization that he gets exposed before we have to commit to him financially. Thank those Twitter nobodies.

    Well that part is true, it is good we know that he is so mentally soft, and we don't need to commit to him - the sooner that message is conveyed the better.

    Who were you asking if it is a core player? Green has NEVER been in my core....

    I really can’t believe how many of you believe that a nobody piggybacking what another nobody says is “confirmation”. They all need clicks and they all have nothing to lose.

    Guys, I subscribe to this channel, like their videos and support Rockets content always. I disliked this video and from the number/views they get, disliking will matter. I liked all their other videos. I think it's important that the channel knows what quality of information and discussion we expect from them. I have no issue with Gatlin being heavily critical of Green, but I do have an issue with them using a Rockets player to get views for themselves with a clickbait title here.

    Again, after this video I'll go back to supporting their videos even if they are critical of Jalen Green. I don't want this good channel to turn into just another sh*t one so I found it important to let them know what I think. I don't want our discussions to be guided by someone (Roush) who is more interested in his popularity than the Rockets or the truth of the situation.

    If you feel the same (or different), you can go dislike/like it here:

    Can someone explain to me how they can verify EVERYTHING is true if most of it happened in a phone call? Did Roosh record Jalen?

    If Ime rolls out the same starting five as before the ASB and they fail to get moving, it will be Ime's fault. It's kind of like a fool me once shame on you(Jalen), fool me twice shame on me(Ime) kind of moment.

    There have been 5 people that I have seen who have corroborated the Roosh story. One is Jackson Gatlin who is a credentialed member of the media. They are laying there reputations on the line to say they have actually seen the DM's from Jalen to Roosh. They all say the DM's are much worse than has been reported. Why would they do that? It opens them up to possible slander lawsuits if they are lying. I do not think "clicks" are worth a possible lawsuit. I believed it when Roosh had one corroboration. Now that he has 5 it is almost a certainty that it happened.

    Some of these nobodies are credentialed media members who actually get paid for the content they put out.

    Vagalin Green needs to be removed from the team and sent to work on his mentals.

    This behavior destroys all competitiveness in a team. You can’t play a guy who throws hissy fits like that. Just remove him from the team, get Fred and Tari back, fockass, buckle-up and make that push for the play-in. This Vagalin stuff is Brittney Spears- level, you can’t have that on a competitive team.

    How are they corroborating a phone call which seems to be where most of the discussion happened?

    He has always been exactly this bad, except that this year, his 3-point shooting (and thereby his overall FG %, because he keeps chucking them) is more atrocious than before.

    He is exactly the same player he has been since he got to the NBA, except that he now runs back and grabs an uncontested rebound more than before.

    His advanced stats were even worse in previous seasons on defense, but slightly better on offense (because he wasn't missing as many threes).

    Of the threes he shot this season:

    124 were wide open (nearest defender more than 6 feet away). He missed 90 of these 124.

    And when a defender is anywhere close, he misses almost 9 out of 10 threes.

    Only when there is a defender between 4-6 feet away, he makes about 38 % of them. It's weird.

    It's depressing when Giddey's current year 3p% is better.

    They're corroborating texts which were apparently pretty bad. Then it went to a phone call. But the texts were likely enough to warrant concern. According to both Frank/Jackson, they were fairly aggressive in nature. It's funny there are still people who believe that all of these guys just got together and made this **** up for some reason.

    Jackson has been largely supportive of Jalen. If that had been me and he had come at me aggressively back in January, the gloves would've been off and it wouldve been hit piece after hit piece after that. But I guarantee that Jalen hasn't come after anyone in the media he feels he probably can't bully.
