I am not sure you noticed or like Elon but the new X.com is pretty lopsided towards what Elon and his minions think...... So would not take people who are unreasonable seriously......
After that stupid contract he is untradeable without adding something of value like some of the Phoenix stash. Stone was beyond stupid to extend him without him proving he deserved it.
Dude is not broken, vintage Green is taking 1 or 2 months off and starting to heat up around AS Break...... He is probably shooting 36% again bridging the gap........ We have watched the same movie 3 times already...in 3 years.
Team could be so good if they had a sg that could shoot even at least 43% from the field . Jalen sucks
CNN reported it to show that is was split down the middle. It will put you in an echo chamber if you search for something though.
The thing is Jalen never was,never is and never will be this team's one of main players. In order to be main player, high basketball iq is needed and Jalen is probably not the most maybe, but one of the lowest basketball iq players in this league. Athleticism does not make you a player, if you are not consistent and if you are cant play structured basketball. 3 whole years have passed and same Jalen. His contract extension was a dumb decision.. Amen should take his place in the starting lineup...
I really don’t think he’s a great GM. People point to the success of the team and say he’s great. By they forget about the dogsh#t culture before Ime. They don’t acknowledge that his top tanking picks haven’t been good (Jalen and Bari), meanwhile the picks that were more Eli have been great (Sengun and Tari). The needless KPJ and Jalen contracts. If it were up to Stone we’d all be speaking Vogel not Ime. Sure he’s done some good things but he’s made a lot of mistakes. Thank god for Ime and Eli.
It’s wild that Jalen might only make 3 buckets in a game and all 3 might make the highlight reel…meanwhile those who watch get to see the 15 ugly misses. He is truly a highlight reel all star.
I agree that Stone is not a great GM. He's a medicore GM. He is kind of GM who made mistakes, then trying to cover his mistakes by making more mistakes. Let's get the record straight, Bari actually was a good pick. The only high draft bust he drafted was Jalen Green, and Stone knew that. That's why Stone only gave Green three years instead of five years. He probably thought Green could play to the level at least neutral or slightly overpay, but Stone didn't expect Green has been playing so bad that his contract would become the most untradable contract in the league.
Most untradeable contract in the league is extremely hyperbolic. It is pretty untradeable until July of next year, but after that there is no doubt in my mind that some team will give us at minimum a good frp. He is 22 and is still seen as having tremendous potential. Someone will take a flyer on him. He also still has 3/4 of a season to improve his trade profile.
That's probably a mistake... It cannot be that bad. jalen is a mediocre ISO player: he's got good footwork and can easily get separation and get his shot off. Prob is he can't finish, but I doubt it is 13%...
