    P
    ppl who keep defending JG keep hoping for his next big game and I’m sure we’ll get it. But the numbers dont lie, on average he is inefficient and his numbers this year have already regressed from last year. “Oh but his defense has improved!”

    I already explained all of this. Declaring a player is not good and criticizing that player while not performing any in depth analysis of what actually happens on the court during games is both fruitless and pointless since its mere judgement. For any real assessment of a player or conclusion to be formulated you have to look at how a team plays in terms of their sets. How they utilize the Player. How does this coach use him compared to past ones? How is he used relative to his peers? Specifically what factors are limiting production? It’s easy to say player x sucks but there’s nuances and reasons why a player isn’t performing. To be fair I don’t think Sengun has been maximized in this offense either despite dominating touches. The offense as a whole hasn’t been efficient or maximized to its full potential. You and fans love to mention other players but again they dominate in touches. They get offball screens. They don’t play with a scoring big who dominates touches.

    I wish he would attack the rim every time and not settle for the middys and 3s so much.

    Maybe your company should trade you.

    Hit a nerve did I? No need to get personal, you can leave too with JG since you’re such a homer

    I don't think Stone will ever admit he blew it. We're stuck with Green forever.

    You were the one who responded. So I’d say you were the one in your feelings. Again I never said Green is great or flawless. Instead i counter all ignorant, biased, and baseless arguments like yours

    whats homer? Please elaborate on this term. Since you’re ignorant about what you watch and cannot articulate one set your supposed favorite basketball team runs or what players aren’t doing properly on the court, that term is likely another dumbass word used by small minded trash people like you.

    I think the answer is clear: all of Jalen’s future shots should come from the right corner.

    (Also, that chart is pretty sad, but I’m very hopeful we’ll start seeing a little less red as the year progresses)

    Unlike you I don’t need to write whole paragraphs aimlessly. You on the other hand are the definition of trash, google definition of homer cause you’re beneath me.

    My words are hardly aimless lol.

    Considering you offer no valuable insight or fresh perspectives but instead recycled garbage assumptions you likely read from other ignorant fans, I would beg to differ.

    yes his defense has improved. It has improved so much he is no longer getting benched unlike last year even when he is misfiring.

    Rox are so much better this year than last year and JG is part of that improvement even if he can't shoot for crap.

    Stay mad though!

    according to some ppl its not about the chart. it’s how the PLAY is run you see. JG just hasn’t had the right plays or the right SETS or the right personnel around him. You got to look at how the team is playing in relation to JG LOL
    This is what happens when you don’t realize you are the idiot. You start calling other ppl ignorant and trash and garbage. You’re like the circus freak who laughs at others when really you’re the problem :)

    yes you are. I stand by it. No in depth analysis. No reference to basketball plays or sets ran or what you saw on the court that was wrong or what right is. No wider data set used. No deeper understanding or investigation of possible nuances or explanations of player performance. So yeah 100% you’re ignorant and your analysis sucks

    Like I have said about @Bobbythegreat, you are becoming obsessive regarding Jalen. At least Bobby told the objective truth about Jalen, for the most part.

    People check on the threads expecting some decent discussions, and instead get you fighting some imaginary holy war.

    Take a breather, man.

    Is there really anyone left who still thinks he can be a #1 on a contender? Genuinely asking. Or are we just arguing he can be good or not at this point?

    Save it for Udoka bro. If you want to use technicalities to make your point, no he is not inefficient now. He WAS inefficient in his past games. Your historical stats are part of who you are and your potential, they are not the definition of a player.

    So you're using his past stats to say he uncontrollably sucks now and won't improve. We and Udoka and the media think we should keep developing him and there's a good chance he's going to develop. You're entitled to your opinion, but don't frame it as a fact when it's not even the majority opinion.

    Your version of Objective truth is itself subjective. I said nothing about religion so “holy war” doesn’t apply here. This is stupid. Know what you’re talking about before opening your mouth.

    I stand by what I write and I challenge any lazy fool that don’t do their homework but instead post quick 2 second tik tok type info and commentary and call it analysis. I have written specifically and extensively more than most on this site to offer fresh perspectives to the lame tired “he sucks” narrative. You probably need to read better. And If you’re in this camp of haters you will be dealt with.
