    excitable player?! clutch plays?LOL LOL... sir youre a casual...you think players that dunk, shoot 3s from the logo and do weird dribbles are good players... LOLOLL

    we should trade him while he still has some value and get a good supporting cast for sengun ... he is only holding sengun back!

    NBA front offices have analytics to determine how much a player is worth. When Green is due for an extension in 2025, they'll have enough data to make an offer based on how many wins they think he will contribute to the team. I think we can all agree that he hasn't shown he's worth a max rookie deal thus far. If Sengun keeps his current development pace, the Rockets will be giving the max rookie contract to him instead.

    Bro, you need to re-read my post. I was not praising him. I didn't call him exciting (I said excitable) nor say that he was clutch (i said his clutch plays were rare).

    You are a casual reader.

    With all due respect.

    Not only Sengun but also Tari will be dearer than Jabari to sign.Interesting times waiting for us.

    I agree. That max contract should go to Josh Christopher.

    I don’t think he’s holding Sengun back, if anything Sengun thrives off a two man game with Green, who doesn’t really need the ball in his hands. Getting rid of him will only nerf Sengun and hurt his development even further especially with this coaching staff who prioritizes iso ball handlers

    Be careful what you wish for

    I know this thread is rife with ulterior motives but this level of idiocy has to be intentional trolling.
    There is no way you could sincerely be this clueless. No way!!!

    Oh wait...this is CF.
    Nevermind.
    Carry on.

    If Jalen Green isn’t a max player by the end of his contract - it will be more indicative of a complete coaching and assessment failure by the coaches and GM as well as short term settling by the fan base. It would be an epic failure if he didn’t turn into a max player but don’t point the finger at Jalen - he is sitting in complete organizational chaos right now. It’s on the coaches, GM, owners, and fans if he continues to remain there.

    Which is why I want to explore trading him, at least see what he can bring.

    He can't even be happy.

    Some of y'all really need to get a grip with this ****. NBA players literally never make a play without flexing and whooping it up.

    Most NBA players have won double digit games this season too. Not sure about Jalen. I am a fan and I hope he figures it out.

    I for one dont like his personal style and I'm entitled to that believe it or not you opinion Nazi's. I know you all think it doesnt matter how you dress or what you do with yourself but believe it or not it does reflect on what's going on inside and I can't say for sure what it says about a man who wears his hair like a girl and paints his nails but it doesn't strike me as Alpha male and Leader.

    Let's get a coach that tailors the offence to his strengths

    Let him play off ball. Let him cut & pull up.

    He still needs to improve his defence. But unless he's the piece in a KD trade I'm not ready to sell yet.
