    Can we agree that Regular Season and Playoffs are different?

    So to believe your cope, one would have to believe that game 2 had a different game plan than any other game... because he took 25 shots in game 2.

    Wait...are people trying to compare Ant's last game to any of Jalen's six awful games? Really?

    That's ridiculous. If Jalen put up those numbers it would be his second best game in the series and his fans would slobber all over it. It's a bit like a Jalen line anyway: 9-22, 1-5. However, Jalen wouldn't have gotten 14 rebounds.

    I want Jalen to be gone so we dont have to deal with the gaslighting from his 3 superfans or Stone (who I assume is one of these accounts) anymore.

    Bro was probably F-Tard and got banned by Clutch.

    I remember him bringing up these crazy random stats that made Jalen look good.

    You can also agree that March is a different month from other months of the year.

    Stone tried to trade Jalen. I think publicly its smart to support him but behind closed doors he's cursing his name lol

    No, I think one of GS best defenders was out, in Jimmie Butler. I thought everybody knew that?

    Personally, I think Jalen just need to get stronger. He has the speed and the ability to finish around the rim but he needs strength to compete against certain players.

    Lol, love the mental gymnastics.

    I'm sure if we just give him till he's 47 he'll finally be a starting caliber player.

    Never forget:



    Jalen would've been out of here if the Nets accepted that trade.

    I think Jalen is as good as gone between now and next seasons trade deadline. Stone isnt crazy. He sees what most of us see.

    I'm sure you understand the analogy of "Rome wasn't built in a Day".

    At the beginning of the season, the Rockets and ALL Red Nation would have been happy with a 6th Seed and a first round exit. We'll we did much better the 6th and took an experienced team to 7 Games, all while being down 3-1.

    Look at OKC, they were #1 last yr and feel short , #1 this yr and down 0-1 in Rnd 2, it takes time!

    LOOK AT WHAT HE IS SAYING....JALEN NEEDS SPACE! I've been saying that since 2023. He is boxed in, in an 80's - 90's style offense. I'm sure that's going to come out at some point this Summer, as to why he struggled.

    He should give his secret to Jalen and Jabari. They are both about 20 pounds away from being much better players.

    I believe all that was bullshit. None of us know if Stone ever tried to trade Jalen. One of the problem with a free press is they can publish anything they want without retribution. They swing elections with BS and sports is no different. But there is no alternative to free speech.

    Yes we do because it was widly reported and he accepted the claims. Any other Rockets rumors we had he quickly refuted them. The nets confirmed this one proudly while their fanbase was angry because they wanted their picks back lol
