    Who actually was advocating for that?

    I missed that foolishness.

    Yeah if they want to go ahead and leave him off both all rookie teams, it wouldn't bother me at all. Jalen treated Cade like he punched his mom just because Detroit drafted him first. This guy will use anything as motivation.

    I know there's been a lot of uncertainty and criticism of the G-League, but there hasn't been a case study like Green yet, so this is interesting.

    I thought the G League wasn't great for Jalen in terms of habits. He had to unlearn so many things he did in the GLeague because of size difference.

    Did I just see KOC put Herb Jones over Jalen Green for Rookie 1st Team? Bruh, are u mad? Have u lost it?

    somebody order a head CT so we can check for trauma

    I hate when people try to be different and make things way more complicated than they should be just cuz

    I like KOC but he's not my most favorite NBA writer on The Ringer for rookies. I prefer Tjarks' analysis over KOC's.

    I don't mind this. Let Green use being passed up by Herb Jones as motivation. I want scorched earth Green next season. He will use these slights as fuel.

    Hmmm. Go figure. MAYBE the GLeague isnt as bad as some guys were making it out to be or MAYBE the NBA isnt as hard for players like Jalen Green once they get accustomed.

    These highlights are nuts. Mostly self created off the bounce. Only 1 or 2 spot up threes.

    That's nice. Good research.

    And outside of Cade and maybe Mobley, every one of those teams would swap their rookie for Green.

    Well hopefully folks will start viewing g league in a better light. We had a sht ton of people sht on green cause he came from g league.


    That nonsense oh he scored a sht ton in g league it wouldn't translate over to nba. U can apply that same logic to college players

    Analytics nerds have taken over. Judging a Rookie on a tanking, horrible team by advanced metrics is about the dumbest thing i've heard in a while.

    Whatever. It's not like this stuff matters anyway
