    I think he would suck and be seen as a bust. When Jalen starts playing and starts shooting bricks he is banished to the bench.

    MDA doesnt develop any rookies and has no interest developing rookies. Tate would prob get all his minutes day 1.

    I am probably just jinxing us, but I’m expecting Green to play well. Biggest game of the careers of Jalen and Alpi. Can they rise?

    If he does start off hot, the Thunder are going to blitz him with their wings, they have too many wings to negate Jalen....Jabari has to have a big games for the Rockets to win.

    To me a good night for Jalen is 15pts/6 reb/5 assist and 2 steals.
    Jabari needs to have at least 15 pts/12 rebs

    People love to think D'antoni turns any offensive player into what Harden/Nash became but forget those Lakers/Knicks years.

    He was forced to play Lin because of injuries.

    Linsanity was only like 20 games. And tbf Lin was exactly the type of ball dominant guard that Pringles system works with. He is a one trick pony.

    Rockets need to get rid of Green and Van Vleet. You just aren't a serious team when your backcourt has so many bad shooting nights.

    what really ***** me with JG this is his 4th year and he still can't control the ball when he is on the dribble, as bad as FVV is at least he can hold onto the ball.
