This is what I don't understand about guys like Nook. Like, do they not have any understanding of historical perspective? Do they truly not understand that 22 yr olds generally get better? Am I 100% certain that Green will develop into our franchise player? Of course not. But, in Nook's words, I have serious doubts he won't when looking at the historical development of young stars.
You can't expect normal people to be mindless fanbois like you. A rational person looks at the first 3 seasons of Jalen's career and has serious doubts about his future whereas the fanboi ignores all negative data points in order to keep blindly believing. Hopefully your blind faith pays off because it's in the Rockets best interest for Jalen to finally become a good player. That said, you're not going to get away with trying to rewrite the past.
lol. Again, ignorant posters like you don’t seem to understand historical context when evaluating players, and it’s not worth engaging with you because you never will. Oh, and trust me, I stand by what I say on here — I’m not a coward like you who tries to recontexualize your idiotic comments.
Trying to explain away your blind faith as you merely leaning on "historical context" is 100% an attempt to recontextualize your years of idiotic comments.
Whenever anyone from henceforth gets into a debate with Bobby about Green, and he tries to explain away his prior statements with such idiocy as "I meant 'bust' UNTIL now," please keep in mind that Bobby said he would trade Green for a FRP "in a heartbeat." There is no escaping that - that is a comment about Jalen's prior AND future performance. Again, Bobby would have traded our 22 year old prospect who has put up MVP numbers the last 7 games for a FRP "in a heartbeat."
I know this goes over your head, but statements made at one time, with one set of data points are not "idiotic" later with a different set of data points Astrophysicists like Neil deGrasse Tyson weren't making "idiotic" statements when they described the distance between stellar objects that were later revised due to future measurements with better instruments, nor was it "idiotic" describing older models of cosmology that have been changed since then. An intelligent person uses the data available and changes stances as the data points suggest they should. A mindless cultist merely goes on blind faith. Even if the person going on blind faith is accidentally correct in the end, they are still a moron.
Whatever you say, Bobby. You would have traded Green for a FRP "in a heartbeat." NDT never said anything that dumb.
Jalen Green had the Captain America serum in his back pocket this entire time. That's how you go from bust to "future star" in a week. Or.... You just suck at player evaluation... @Bobbythegreat what is more likely in this scenario? Super soldier serum or you sucking at player evaluation?
Your blind faith is not player evaluation, it's religion. If there was a Daishen Nix version of you out there and next year he becomes the greatest player ever.... would that make the years of baseless praise leading up to that point lead idiotic?
Lol sure. Number of 20 point games for Nix: 0 Number of 20 point games for Green: 264 Again, and I’ll repeat this until you start acting rationally — you would have traded Green for a FRP “in a heartbeat.”
Thank you for demonstrating that what I said was indeed over your head. Buddy, you can't hope to follow along in these conversations with your room temperature IQ.
Player only cultists care more about their jihad than anything the team is doing. Rockets fans love that Jalen is playing so well and that the team is wining. The cult of Jalen is upset that when Jalen played poorly for several years, Rockets fans had doubts and refused to say that there is one God and Jalen is his prophet. For me, I just hope these morons don't jinx it like they did last year during the 8 game hot streak.
