    You are absolutely right, I just woke up from a nap after a long day of work. Serge Ibaka is who I had in mind. Just edited the post. Thanks.

    What do their opinions have to do with mine?

    No I wasn’t. I wasn’t surprised or shocked. Warriors had a solid game plan. They knew if Green scores and made plays for others Rockets win. So they singled up on Sengun, trapped and blitzed Green, played zone and took their chances with Rockets 3 pt shooting. I was frustrated when he had some lanes and wasn’t aggressive or shot poorly when open but for most of the series he simply had nowhere to go. We have seen our offense crumble against zone and traps on Jalen. I was more disappointed in other guys like Tari, Amen, and Brooks who didn’t play well in several games when they had the opportunity to shine. I expected more from Amen really and he did have 2 maybe 3 good games but didn’t play to his potential in several especially that game 1.

    Sorry, the pseudo-intellectual word-salad bullshit you want to go down is completely beneath me.

    You are triggered for no reason lmao. My first post I said this is how some people feel which has nothing to do about you. You made it personal about yourself got in your feelings then lashed out like the weak person that you are. I simply speak logically and factually. If someone has no expectations why would you be let down. If you take that personal that’s on you little man

    I've seen this experience and I think I've had enough lmao.

    The greats find a way to overcome adversity and less-than-ideal circumstances early and often in their careers and I have not seen enough of that out of Jalen over the last four years. It's even more disrespectful that some of the media types have tried invoking the likes of MJ and Kobe to defend him.

    However, I think the FO hasn't given up on him and I don't currently see a way to move on from Jalen that makes the team better.

    I thought their choice was between Harden and Perkins?

    Good point. I think they could have amnestied Perkins to make room for Harden and kept Ibaka while at it but they chose not to. Ibaka did get an extension before Harden though.

    At least they had Adams.

    Is there a guy of Durant's or Harden's magnitude to even entertain that mistake again?
