    Jalen’s Home vs Away splits are so confusing. I don’t understand why he’s so much better away.

    Maybe that is the first sign in his subconscious that says, I want to get away.

    It's just small sample size randomness, he was better at home last season and the season before.

    Just a WILD guess but could it be he's just not use to the baby? Getting used to a new born is an adjustment. Being a first time father is an adjustment in it'sself, I know it was for me.

    OR

    He just have more time to clear his mind while on the road.

    Yeah I think it's just this, I don't think it has anything to do with home/away. He's got 8 good games this year out of 31 total, so about 25% or 1 in 4. 6 out of those 8 games have been away games so far, and 2 of them at home. If he's going to have a big scoring game in 1 out of every 4 games, it's not that unlikely that 6 out of 8 have fallen on away games. I don't think there's anything to it other than randomness.

    I will see you this about Jalen. I’ve seen a lot of growth. BUT he just doesn’t seem to have the mentality to want to force the issue offensively. I know the results if he did that might be inefficient, but ******* there are times where I would like to see him try to be more assertive.

    He’s too much of a teammate - specially to FVV

    YOU ARE THE ONE WHO STARTED THIS. Maybe you find a new hobby instead attacking people who are just saying what happened. I mean wtf do you expect me to do. We are on a basketball board talking about basketball and the subject here is jalen green. so im not allowed to say how he plays? GTFOH grow up. If youre that sensitive you need to get a new hobby. seek therapy and stop crying.

    JALEN GREEN PLAYS GREAT AGAINST POOR TEAMS AND BAD AGAINST GOOD TEAMS. It happened now go cry cuz I said it. I dont care lol

    I expect you to analyze games beyond "shooting bad, therefore bad game!" if you are going to invest time in this hobby or else I will make fun of your stupid basketball takes and the only way to change that is get better at analyzing the sport or block me.

    I mean if you're a high usage guard, unless you're an elite passer/creator like harden or a monster defender like caruso, how can you be good if you're high usage low efficiency? If you drop Shai's TS by 10% to reach jalen level, how good would he be? Solid starter? Fringe starter? Rotation player? Even being a way better defender and way better passer than Jalen he would be nothing special.

    Before you rant, explain the premises being specifically argued here. What claims are being made and countered.

    if Jalen got a SGA or Harden whistle what would you say?

    Someone on X is posting videos of FVV dribbling 16-17 seconds then finally giving ball to JG to do something with clock going down … sounds familiar doesn’t it - happens quite a bit
