    The way I read his post is supposed to be a bit tongue and cheek. He knows correlation is not causation. Just maybe that the player has some potential and to keep an eye on.

    It's REALLY hard to tell if he really does know that correlation is not causation and that his post really is tonged in cheek so I don't think we can make those assumptions without more evidence.

    Reed has performed tremendously in his role lately. He is currently filling it up! The waters have never had a more perfect temperature and are measured with precision to reduce spillage. The towel waving per 36 numbers are out of this world.

    It’s actually less ridiculous than crediting a guy who has played 2 games for a 4 game winning streak. A player shooting worse than reed from the field and from 3 lol

    I see some of you are still stuck on my words of wisdom. So let me, as you youngins say, hip you to some game.
    The Sacramento Kings organization and team were so excited to see that the ROY was able to play that they all rallied together and started playing like it mattered. Duhh!!

    And yet he contributed to a blowout win over the Warriors. With 23 minutes which is almost starters minutes in just his second game. Plus he shook Stephen Curry up a few times. Made him cough up the ball and miss a couple shots.

    If Reed gets confident, Jalen stays consistent, Tari is healthy, and Cam grows up, the Core 7 will be a force.

    He'd have had SOO many more assists if his teammates made more open shots. Also, his shooting numbers are skewed by him taking 4 "hot potato" shots as the shot clock or game clock was expiring.

    It was clear his focus last night was on being a true PG rather than just taking a million shots like was his focus in the first game.

    Funny you keep showing stuff about players on other teams when this thread is about one of our own players.

    You know Jalen Green shot 38% from 3 in the GLeague right?

    The reality is his shooting mechanics are horrible by NBA standards. He needs to fix them and hopefully GLeague will help with that.

    Lol damn doubling down on stupid?

    Jalen has always been a streaky shooter, streaky shooters produce dishonest small samples.

    Anyway, thanks for the laugh.
