    Exactly. The only reason I feel Sengun will have a better career is because of health. Peak Zion has a higher ceiling than anyone on the roster.

    Go ahead and find the unhinged claims I've made of Jalen.
    You are saying Sengun clears a healthy Zion who averaged... Check notes...

    27 ppg on 65% ts at age 20.

    "By a lot"


    Come on dude. Self awareness. A tigne of it maybe? An iota? A tinny incy wincy amount?

    The absolute irony, lol.
    The biggest Jalen fanboy on here is telling someone to have self awareness? Wow.

    Zion has done nothing but regress, Alp was undeniably better than Zion last season and is only getting better
    We know you’re not a Rockets first fan, you’re a Jalen first fan. That’s cool. You do you.
    But the best player on this team and in the lineup that idiot posted is still Alp.
    That’s just the facts. You don’t have to like it, but it’s the truth.

    Tell me a unhinged claim I've made.of Green akin to yours. "Green clears Bradley Beal by a lot".

    Something along those lines. Go ahead. Don't say it. Show it.

    "If healthy". Zion stagnating is because of health. The fact that I said that Alpi more than likely will have. Better career should tell you I have more confidence in Sengun's work ethic and health.

    You have said Green will be better than Beal and others. You got super upset anytime anyone said he was Levine.
    Your unhinged defense is legendary.

    There are no qualifiers, “ifs” or upside in the real world.
    Alp is better than all of those players, end of story.
    The fact you’re so upset by the truth is weird, are you actually a Rockets fan? It doesn’t seem that way

    Ya I said he probably can be better than those two when he reaches his prime.

    Did I ever say he's better than them now?

    This is a mild as saying "Sengun has a chance to be better than Sabonis when he reaches his prime".

    You find that statement unhinged?

    What is a level statement from someone who isn't a stan but a mere optimist for Jalen?

    Maybe he'll reach Jordan Clarkson level in his prime? Is that mild enough for you?

    The funniest thing here is there are some Jalen fans who say crazy stuff like Green was better last season than Sengun which is crazy speak. But you calling my takes on Jalen unhinged says a lot about yourself.

    Your defense is unhinged. It’s nonstop, you’re in every thread defending Green like it’s an insult to your very being.
    The difference between you and I, is I’ve never talked bad about any of our young core. I support Jalen just as much as Alp.
    But, for some reason, pointing out pure facts that Alp is better than anyone on that lineup has your panties in a bunch.

    There it is. It isn't the claims. It's the the frequency that you feel is at a level that is too often. So thank you for admitting it has never been the actual content of my claims.

    There it is. Your usual tactics, putting words in others mouths just to make yourself feel “correct” or smarter than you are.
    I’m sorry, you aren’t important enough for me to go search through your thousands of ridiculous posts.

    Busty you are important enough to me as a fellow human that if I'm going to make a claim about you I'd be certain it's backed on some basis of merit.

    You have this nebulous feeling that I make unhinged claims about Jalen Green. If you only got "vibes" as your evidence then just shut up? Just don't reply. Don't make claims. Just don't say anything about me.

    You responded to me. I wasn’t talking to you at all. You had to white knight for your boy at all costs.
    You’re a caricature at this point, everyone knows you make outlandish claims regarding Green. I have zero interest in continuing a conversation with you lol.
    It’s always the same conversation with you and whoever you converse with. Waste of time.

    Buddy you got this unhinged because I said that Sengun being "a lot better" than Zion is not sound. That got you all hot and bothered.

    Sure bud. This is about “Zion” yet you brought up a “consistent” Jalen.
    Literally can’t be more obvious.
    Alp clears Zion. Facts and stats support this. You got upset at that for some reason and felt it in you to attach Jalen too.

    Ya sorry man. I do think Sengun isn't better "by a lot" compared to a consistent Jalen. If that makes you think I'm a unhinged stan then so be it. I'll live. I'll carry on.

    A healthy Zion is a top 10 player. Maybe higher. However, I don’t think that he is super impactful on defense, and I don’t even really think he’s that great of a rebounder.

    I live near New Orleans. Have some friends that are bigs Pels fans. They all seem to hate Willie Green and they want an offense where Williamson is essentially the point guard.

    In no way would Zion ever be a top 10 player

    People that think Zion would be a superstar if healthy only look at one side of the court. He is not a good defensive player or consistent rebounder. He is not a superstar and anyone paying him the max is a fool, which the Pelicans are finding out. Nobody will trade for Zion until the last year of his contract if that.
