    There was no elite rim protection last night vs the Pels or against the Jazz. They both will get roasted by quick guards this season. The Thunder did a really good job of cutting off his drives and turning him back if he did happen to turn the corner. There was one possession last night where Alpy was indecisive and the ball ended up in Jalen's hands with like 7 seconds to go and he jacked up a long 3 he missed. Not Jalen's fault there as he wasn't given much to work with but it was the one time where he took what I felt like was a "bad shot". Everything else seemed pretty smooth.

    He's probably done for the pre-season so onto the Hornets which he should do good against.

    But what's his TS? Can someone post his TS? Can someone post his points per play so I can enter it into my spreadsheet? Does anyone have his pre-season EPM? His DARKO? His RAPM? His CarMELO? ESPN RPM? What's his RAPTOR? Then and only then will I give my opinion on his play.

    If Green gives the Rockets 8 hot games a month
    Based on my eye test his first game was at least 60-62TS%

    Second game was Jaterade worthy

    Last game against Pels resembled the first one

    If you can get March madness Green for every 6/10 games ( with 2 decent and two bad Green), then his 8 game monthly flukes will turn into multi POM finalists

    Long live the 8 game fluke/bust

    He does seem to get really upset at math pretty often which is weird.

    I would say you hate all the other 4 that was part of the 5 color code based on a hail mary crow in the sky

    You hate all the red /brown/yellow/wyte

    My angle is go find out where the land/bloodline DNA is for those coloring crayons and then come with an erudite rebuttal

    You won't have an angle (reply with substance)

    Black in true etymology means ''white/pale''(blaec)

    So who is really out to lunch?

    Eye test TS? I could never even fathom such an analytic. This is fascinating new technology.

    So weird given how easy to find the real numbers are to look up.

    Game 1 - 68.5

    Game 2 - 43.6

    Game 3 - 55.2

    What's this, is this real TS? Did you use a calculator to compute this? Sorry, not interested in that outdated analytic. I'm on the cutting edge here brother, we use Eye Test TS (ETTS%). Get with the program.

    I've learned my lesson, I have thrown my abacus out and from now on ill only judge players based on my emotions and pre existing bias.

    The goal for Jalen for himself and from the coaching staff should be to put together consecutive good months of of basketball. The issue is he has a good month every other month. Start small with back to back months and go from there.

    Last season:
    November was good
    December was bad.
    January was solid,
    February was terrible.
    March was great
    April was a regression.



    That’s pretty much been his pattern his whole career. Management shouldn’t give him a rookie max extension if he can’t stop those bad pattern because that’s not a dependable star player

    Its very simple

    You watch something 80 or so times

    And see the actual shots etc the player takes etc

    And then I come to conclusion and be like we need more 65+TS% JG4 and far less low 40% FG ......and what's his career FG%..... Low 40's% right?

    And then you have those who spam all these metrics when its already been done by watching the scripted game where the stats unfold live

    Based on the first 20 games, I could go off eye test on Bari 3pt % if I watch the first 20

    But if I only watch 5 of first 20 then of course the numbers and honest views from others would be more useable

    You seem pretty bright

    So Google Johann Blumenbach color code race 1700s

    And Bernier from the 1600's

    And next time you see a Korean/Japanese/Chinese national, tell them you hate all yellow people or you like all yellow people and see how ignant that really sounds

    Just because they dumbed down most society to only be a two color race doesn't mean its true, so you understand black/wyte people......

    but It started as 5 colors and will remain, just like the 13 States of North America is just that, 13 with annexation attachments

    Are you red or brown?
