    To me it’s just typical of a 6th man like role player. Players like Lou Williams, Jamal Crawford, JR Smith who can get on a heater and put up a big performance but otherwise lay goose eggs.

    Stars are consistent. Jalen is no where close to star or even starter level talent. He just took the reigns because he got here first but that time has come to an end

    Its funny because if the warriors had Steph this game would already be over. The wolves only have a chance because Steph is their closer and he is hurt.

    I like to think the Rox can take credit for Steph's hammy issue. 41 minutes 5 days ago, followed by 45 minutes day before yesterday. That's a lot of intense minutes for an old guy.

    Thats exactly it, but I can see them saying that the Rockets beat him up n the league should look at the physical aspect of the game.

    Rather Brooks is a dumbass. Didn’t bother to guard him at all. If he doesn’t show up again next year in the playoffs he needs to be gone. I don’t care if he has a great regular season. Same thing he did in Memphis. A lot of trash talking but can’t back it up. It’s getting old.

    Steph was not there playing well when Harrison Barnes made that game winner, he let them fall to 7th Seed and almost 8th Seed.

    Believe me, Butler is that guy now....

    Naz, Alexander Walker, McDaniels, Randle, diVicenzo are the X factors.

    Not making excuses for Jalen but how would we reacted if Jalen was putting up 20pts on 25 shots a night like Ant has been doing since game 1 of Lakers

    Would we complain on the shot attempts ever night? Jalen sucked but also kept it conservative and didn’t just shoot 12-25 every night. Would it be better to just shoot away or give those shots to others?

    The Twolves should be embarrassed right now. They making Draymond look like Jokic out there and Kerr is basically resting his guys in the middle of this playoff game by clearing out his bench.

    No they wouldn't have what are you on about? We were literally dead in the water on offense for multiple stretches and the fans were practically begging Jalen Green to attack. You are telling me Jalen shouldn't be attacking Buddy Hield or BP? Thats not even game planning its literally basic basketball IQ. It also wasn't just taking shots. Jalen dribbled the ball for 20 seconds before getting stuck and giving the ball to Fred or Sengun to chuck a awful shot. His inability to make even fundamental basketball plays was glaring and the warriors stopped trapping him completely in game 7.


    Our team has no offense without an aggressive Jalen Green. FVV Brooks are not supposed to be your primary offensive weapons and Amen can't shoot. Just admit Green isn't that guy and he shrank when the lights were brightest. Jalen stood around in the corner for multiple offensive possessions and in a critcal game 7 he had 0 points in the first quarter and 2 points at halftime. Just inexcusable and I don't want to hear anymore justifications for this BS.

    Who would have thought Draymond would lead the Warriors in 3pt made, and Antman would go full Jalen.
