Because Green is in year 4 and Sheppard is just wrapping up month number one. More is expected out of Jalen but it's a good thing he's been better at defense this year and overall showing more confidence. This is a Reed thread though and Reed is playing pretty well considering the limited amount of minutes and shots he gets.
It would be awesome if Jalen was good enough at anything to be a net positive when his shot isn't falling. He's in his 4th season and it's still not the case.
No he isnt playing well if he was playing well he wouldnt get so little minutes. He isnt playing well enough to be called "great" people here are just so desperate for validation they blow up every little thing he has done like its God's gift to man. Dude is playing at a replacement level backup level. Looking at his play no one will say he is a lotto level pick.
Ime "Great play on the ball, man." as Reed checked out. The shots will fall. Defensively, he is a beast. Navigates screens like he is Marcus S and plays like he has his 6'9 wingspan.
It doesn't surprise me that you'd say something stupid like this given that you don't know **** about basketball and probably don't even watch the games.... because if you did, even a moron like you would see the way opposing defenses follow him well beyond the 3 point line every second he's on the court.
He is playing well because he's playing at all. If he wasn't he'd be at a taco stand with Cam right now. Like where Jared McCain and Dalton Knecht would be because they play on teams with absolute joke rotations. If your rookie is having to jack up 15 shots a game you're an unserious team.
@roslolian is the biggest douchebag on this board. A know-at all, foreign casual who doesn’t have a shred of basketball knowledge that pollutes the board with his non-sense. @roslolian stop posting here no one likes you.
You are the stupid one here having a guy guard the dude standing at the 3 is basic. By that logic is Jalen Green making all the opponents piss their pants? He is guarded every shot he takes. Why will teams be scared of a rookie averaging 4 ppg? You say the dumbest **** but act like you're so smart wtf.
... they don't guard Jalen like that when he's off ball.... of course you'd know that if you watched games
He is one of the three guys with negative net differential alongside Cam and Steven Adams. Lakers are like one rank behind us how are they unserious?
