    You can not be lazy and somehow find yourself in NBA but when you are at the top everyone is hardworking so you might look lazy among them. That dude did not say anything about nail polish.

    What insight does he have to make a relative comparison of their work ethic?

    Oh are you talking about "serious about winning" ting he said. He might be thinking that we might attribute Jalen Green's minimal level of development from year 1 to year 2 to not being super competitive. If he was serious about winning he would've cared about improving as a shooter etc.

    Saying that someone doesn't work on their shooting because their scoring efficiency dropped by like 1% from the previous is a silly way to evaluate "work ethic".

    A slight dip in scoring efficiency can be for many reasons outside of "not improved as a shooter".

    Again, I feel like you really don't read any of my posts because I'll say it again, Green this year compared to last year was tasked to be more of the "safety blanket" on the team. Teammates instinctively pass to it to Green when the shot clock is running out. He's the player on the team tasked to take those type of shots. Green's usage went up from his rookie year. His percentage of fgs made self created went up. He was tasked with a larger burden on offense than his rookie season

    Alp is synonym for hard working, from the very first day. His original coach asked him to play in every position as his final reach could not be predicted in early days (his older brother is 1.95 and Alp would be 2.00 meters if not looked well).

    He even asked to Silas to be brutal against himself. How come people think that he is not a hard worker? Jaw dropping.

    I just interpreted his words. I don't think he's lazy. 70% of Kpj's points were unassisted last season (went up from 62.8 to 69.6) but he still was shooting spectacularly. Sure Jalen had higher usg but Kpj was clearly more efficient of the two because even if he's not as a big scoring threat as jalen but he's actually a good 3pt shooter and that's the most valuable skill in today's nba. I'm pretty sure Kpj's percentages wouldn't look as bad as Jalen's if he had to shoulder higher usg.

    Flnally... That's what we all been waiting for bud, thanks for finally revealing the root of your Alp hate. And of course, you are reported for racism. I hope @Clutch will take the appropriate measure, like he has done with some racist AlpStans. And, i don't know how that HReturns dude is still not banned.

    Ohhhhh No Im reported! Im not sure what I'll do with my life now. God forbid @Clutch bans me for drawing a line when it comes to bullies and bigots. Funny thing about a place with a search function is that people who really care enough to investigate could simply run the receipts. You morons think that anything is fair game when it comes to your idol worshipping of Sengun and how far you are willing to degrade and dehumanize others in order to support him. Thing about you stinky ass euros is that there is a noticeable difference when it comes to humor. I live for the petty of this place there are guys here who know how to use it and create a worthwhile experience. You cavemen just want to swing around a club and then get upset when someone swings back. Spare me your crocodile tears.

    Please go on.
    Denial, championship-level projection, even regression... But I can feel your favorite is displacement. Sad...

    Just to be clear, you do not think Sengun is the franchise player then?

    He has as good a shot as any other player on the roster.

    So technically he still could have been the franchise player all along. I think its between Sengun, Brooks or Hudgins.....
