    Y'all remember when Donte Greene blew up the SL way back when and everyone on CF was clamoring to tout him as the second coming of T-Mac?

    Yeah, I was one of those guys... then we quickly traded him to Sacramento for Ron Artest, which was a blessing in the skies ;)

    Funny that he was the Humpee, because if you watched them play you would think it's the other way around as he's way more aggressive on the court than Jalen.

    I found out what he did, and I am unsurprised. He could average 20 points a quarter if they would just give him the playing time he deserves.

    I was unhappy when we first cut him because I thought he was more solid than Jalen

    Josh is a bozo IQ player who can score some points and needs 4" to be NBA effective....

    Josh Christopher + 4" = Cam Whitmore

    Christopher has no bbiq. He sometimes goes off and drops 30 points but that's a like seeing an albino lion on your porch. You get that performance from him once in every 50 games. That kid is at least 2 levels below Green and i don't rate Green at all. These are the worst players to have on your roster. They fool you to believe that they are more than what they show you everyday because couple months ago had a 50 points game so they can do it every other game maybe one day if they find some consistency??? They never find consistency and you spend your years holding on to that hope.

    Want to know what Josh's ceiling is? He's the kind of guy who might one day score 20 points in the 4th quarter of a meaningless game.

    JC was an undersized 2G in college that was a poor shooter thats exactly what he is in the NBA. The Rockets should have picked Grimes.

    I thought so in their rookie year, too. Jaygup was playing with more force and energy, fought his way into the rotation.
    But then his head got too big, started carrying himself like some celebrity, and his game got much worse the second year…
    Defo has potential, he had to show the focus and determination to develop it and he blew it.
    NBA will give you more chances, though, if you have talent… So, he is getting one now, let’s see what he does with it.

    Stop pretending that you've followed basketball longer than Sengun's played, it's embarrassing.
