    Draymond apparently did a paint your nails motion with his hands. If I'm Green I would have said you booty buddy Butler paints his nails also, beach!

    Jalen the only one showing fight yet all cf can do is blame him for everything.

    Jalen predictably fell for Draymond's bait. Not a good look to be yapping off after a loss where you disappeared. Sore loser-ish.

    this is as fake as it gets. and I'm a Jalen fan. Fight during the game not after. Jalen is one of the reasons why we lost.

    Like I said after game 1. Jalen can silence the critics. No one will care about 2 bad games if he plays better the rest of the series.

    Game 3 becomes forgivable if the next game he drops 40 in a win.

    Maybe this wakes him up for the next game.

    If there are 5 reasons we lost Jalen is 5th.

    He also got into Draymond with the elbow game 2 IN GAME.

    Jalen is literally the only reason we have a playoff win.

    All the blame none of the credit. People just dont wanna root for him as a fanbase and its a shame.

    My name is literally CantStopJG...

    Jalen is a 4th year dude who is making 35M a year. Let's set our expectations higher. His game was unacceptable tonight. His demeanor from game 2 to game 3 completely changed. He's had 2 awful games in this 3 game series so far. That's really bad.

    Jalen is trying - he just has some serious limits right now as a #1 scorer. His perimeter game isn't consistently good enough - his mid range game isn't good enough to make up for inconsistent perimeter shooting, and he doesn't handle contact near the rim well enough... and he basically cannot have an off night or the Rockets will lose.

    I see a lot of fans mad at him - but he is giving the effort, he just is miscast and expectations are too high. Just because he is the #1 option by default doesn't mean he is a #1 option.

    Jalen has a chance to do something really badass next game if he has a big game in a Rockets win! Game 4 awaits..

    I'll give you this.

    When you have AMen and FVV on offense they're just going to collapse on Jalen and Alpi

    But playing a **** game and then bringing the dog out in you after is some weak ass sauce

    shut up , Ime and Kerr both said GS schemed JG out the game and he made the right plays - problem is Alpi and Amen didn’t finish the plays - be it with buckets or FTs

    It’s also on Ime and FVV because they do nothing to get our best catch and shoot players shots …

    Idc what your name is.

    Hes in his 4th yr making 12mill.

    His demeanor was great, and is literally the only one fighting and standing up to draymond.

    Hes had 1 awful game - loss

    Hes had 1 amazing game - win

    Hes had 1 decent game - loss

    He wasnt great tongiht. But he wasnt bad by any stretch of the term.

    The only fault he has, is hes not great enough yet to explode offensively, when an entire defense plans to prevent you from scoring.

    "Cant believe at 23 and his 1st playoff series he doesnt have that in the bag yet, smh my head".

    "Meanwhile i love Sengun going 1 of 6 form the charity stripe while shooting 7/17 from thw restricted"

    "Fred is just amazing with his 5/14"

    "Amen is wonderful. Barely noticed his 5/16"

    "But that Jalen green p.o.s needs to score better"

    Sure...

    Jalen will score 35 and we will win

    And instead of giving him credit for bringing us 2 playoff wins

    They will say,

    "Wtf, we could have had 4 wins if you just did this every game"

    Rather than give credit, fans would rather hate him.

    Whos been good every game?

    Not Jalen

    Not Sengun

    Not Fred

    Not Amen

    Our most consistent play right now might be Brooks or Jabari.

    But somehow CF only sees Jalens struggles.
