    Really hope this team regroups after a rest and wins some road games.

    5-21 is embarrassing

    Jalen doesn't leak to Woj, the only media personality he talks to directly is Roosh.

    He's going to make a guest appearance on whatever podcast Roosh hosts to demand a trade, in between advice about Rip Hamilton and rapping

    He also talks to Podcast George and media personalities.

    PG13 gave him advice as well but not on the microphone or camera.

    He meets so many people per day who probably gave him advice as well.....lol hard to remember which advice.

    "Jalen you need to commit to eating the right things. Put the right things in your body. Listen to your coaches. Stop hanging out with people who just tell you what you want to hear. Hold yourself accountable. Do what your coaches need you to do. If they need you to play defense. Play defense. If they need you to score. Score. If you're in the half court, play in the half court. Box out. Get rebounds. If you need to play with pace, then play with pace. Learn how to talk to the media and the refs. Stop worrying about the haters."

    The bolded parts are what Jalen actually heard.

    I live close to New Orleans and I am tempted to go to this game, but I don’t know. I can’t see us winning twice in New Orleans in one year.

    Jalen says 'I am no 6th man".
    Thats good, cause I see him as our 8th or 9th man.

    Anxiously waiting on updates from Tari, Cam and FVV...

    If Zion plays we win?

    Gotta get JV in foul trouble. Letting him rule the paint isn't going to work and they don't seem to mind putting octogenarian Jeff up there instead of another mildly big body in Landale. Feed Alpe, defend Ingram, Jabari/Jalen gotta get the boards.

    Potential bloodbath grindhouse matchup if we can stick to the gameplan, possible win. Regular bloodbath if we come out flat, don't target Valenciuanas for foul trouble and shoot sub 30% from 3.

    Would dearly love to see a breakout game from Amen or Jabari. A 30 burger that breaks the Pelicans gameplan.

    I'm really curious what Jalen's efficiency would look like if he played like a roleplayer. Only shooting open threes, cutting and moving without the ball, driving only when he has an easy lane to the basket. I don't think he's bad at converting on those kinds of opportunities, he just tries to self-create so often and is, frankly pretty terrible at it in at least 80% of his games.
