I don’t know how many caught this, but Hollins said JG been getting weight lifting sessions in AFTER the game.
Corner pocket Jalen Green more 30 point games than every other rookie? Nice. Those March numbers jump off the page.
Jalen has improved his lateral movement a lot. He defends point guards well. His size and wingspan isn’t as big a problem against them. Ideally he is paired with another guard that can handle defending shooting guards.
I am liking drafting Ivey, and Williams from duke. Benching kpj. Playing Ivey, green, kmj, senguin, Williams. Kpj, Christopher, Matthews, Tate off the bench.
Vs a PF In the long run it helps to have someone push Christian Wood away, his contract situation would be a problem IMO. You would need a legit All Star that can defend or a former All Star with that kind of money.
sign Rubio to a short deal and have him run and organize the team after recovering from his ACL…we get a steady, high BBIQ vet PG that buys us some time to truly address the PG situation
I feel like Jalen is a completely different player than in November. He looks like he grew too. He looks as advertised and what I was imagining him to be, really loving that he turned it around. I get mad T-mac/Jordan vibes with how he glides on the court
The growth from the beginning of the year until now has been ridiculous. JG has worked very hard and it’s paid off in a big way already. I was concerned that he wouldn’t become what we hoped he would be. I’m not concerned anymore and the sky is the limit. I’m looking forward to the future of this team and JG is going to be right in the middle of the success.
One incredible aspect of Green is he has a unique combination of size, speed, athleticism and sharp shooting. He's not going full speed to the basket every possession, he's shooting a lot of 3s and converting them at a high rate. It'll not only increase the longevity of his career, but make him a complete matchup nightmare when he's at the perimeter.
I never doubted it.....even when BobbythenotsoGreat called me out for my preseason take on Jalen Green season prediction. I told him he would be eating crow. Try to save him from himself.
it was so sad and toxic to see all the people bash jalen green the way that they did during the beginning of the season ... just sit back and enjoy the progress continue
Isn’t it insane that that was Jalens only 2nd 40 minute game this year? How many does Cade Mobley and Barnes have?
Not surprised at all. He's a hard worker and that's the main reason why I was so comfortable with taking him 2nd. He has the tools to be great and with his work ethic I felt like he had a great chance to reach superstardom.
