    The Kobe and Harden and MJ and (waves hands at any other great SG comparison) are so awful. So very awful.

    And I don't know about the guy always posting Jalen dunks and highlights when there is a major loss.

    Indeed

    The only comparable one is Kobe and that is just based on them going HS to NBA route, so you can actually compare them yr by yr development

    Harden at least played in pro grooming environment for a year and then got drafted to beauty situation

    And Jordan played with arguably GOAT NCAA coach for 3 yrs with POY award

    Whoever is comparing Green to somebody it better come from the list of players who made the HS to NBA leap, all else is null and void

    Its tougher than what people think, no matter where you are selected

    Try again after Jalen can bring his team into the playoffs for multiple seasons, get 50+ points triple doubles and win a MVP award…

    Let's be real he will never be that, Sengun cam and amen have a better chance than Jalen. Hes way too inconsistent. Hope he proves me wrong.

    Funny thing about Harden.

    Never won a ring but has never had a season where he didn't play in the playoffs (now the 15th year).

    He has also lost to the eventual NBA champ in 7 of them.

    People just have different standards for different players but at the same time also judge them by those different standard like they can be compared.

    Harden is talked about as a disappointment because he wasn't on par with players like Curry or Kawhi or Hakeem. Meanwhile people are excited when Jalen has a month of games that look like Ant or Booker. The difference in expectations is doing a lot of work here in people's minds.

    This place is better off without all the insults that guy threw around .... leave him in the badlands, there are no buffalo there, it's a good place to starve. It's kinda ironic .... (if you know anything about the tribal conflicts).

    He’s over in the Astros board posting literally the dumbest, yet most assertive, posts about trades. He simply cannot understand how arbitration works. It’s almost funny.
