    I think the Jalen fans have moved the goalposts so many times now, no one is quite sure.

    We saw Zack LaVine’s market last season. Why would we do this to ourselves.

    Trade timing we also saw Stone hang onto Eric Gordon for to long, too.

    So here we are. I believe we are going to restricted free agency with him & will save money or let him walk without a return. He maybe making more now then he will for the rest of his career. His play this year will not change the market. There is no max for him.

    Zach Lavine and Jalen Green are different humans last time I checked. Did someone tell you on the Internet that have similar games?

    I said from the beginning I can see him as a more athletic Booker.

    Still see that possibility. You people are weird.

    You don't need to show us graphical versions, you've all been doing this since he got drafted. Nobody moves them goalposts more than Jalen's haters. That's how we ended up with gems like "I need to see at least 38% in 60 of his games or he's a bust." Arbitrary nonsensical lines in the sand is all y'all have.

    And let's face it, this is most of y'alls REAL issue with him. Not the player. Literally just "I'm an old as **** bigot who thinks anybody who isn't a 1980's throwback with no style is gay." That's the driving force (along with the bullshit from the Sengtards who don't want anybody else to get any shine) of most of the Jalen hatred, y'all think he's gay. Despite knocking up 2 women hotter than you'll ever even get to kiss. Bigotry + Jealousy = all of y'all's "informed opinions."

    Yes. And next year we should draft this guy, I hear he’s got a sick pull-up jumper and ball-handling:

    Its precious isnt it? Guys here are more certain that other players on the team will be able to extend range and hit their ceilings vs Jalen making one or two more shots every handful of games.

    Would you trade him for Booker?

    Yes if he doesn't show himself building upon last season and improving his efficiency. If he isn't the clear number one or two options on this team after the first couple of months, it definitely should be on the table.

    They are definitely different, Jalen is like a poor man's Zach Lavine.

    Sure, but the Suns wouldn't, not without like 6 first round picks thrown in.

    Calling Jalen out for playing badly most of the time doesn't make folks haters. The truth hurts.

    Was this guy the #1 ranked basketball player in the nation coming out of highschool, or is this just more of your homophobic nonsense, Karen?

    You are out of touch with reality if you truly believe that.
