    He had a brutal matchup tonight and while he didn't fill up the stat sheet, he held his own and was part of the Rockets comeback.

    I wouldn't worry about him too much.

    Fair enough.

    He's currently a scrub, he needs to earn his time. If he can't, he needs to sit till he can.

    Green is looking like the bust like player I predicted. He is over hyped and does not deserve the mins given. He's the worst defender/player on the team currently, he should earn dem mins like everybody else or b bench

    well.. I think they should treat Jalen like KPJ and play him through think and thin.

    Pretty close, but I never said he was looking like a bust. When you are dealing with a player that young, raw, and unskilled, it's going to take them a long time before you know if they are going to develop into something or not.

    The rest is accurate. He's over hyped, he's given more minutes and starts than he deserves. He's the worst defender on the team currently.

    He should earn minutes or they should give them to the players who are outplaying him.

    Pastor George on there saying we need to keep Eric Gordon because he's one of our most consistent players. I'm done.

    Ah, so treat him like KPJ and bench him for the entire second half of a game then suspend him?

    I'm thinking you'd be quite upset if they did that.

    oh this was my attempt to translate booby.

    I just think Green had a bad game, and a bench or so wouldn't hurt. His life would b easier if had a competent Big

    They didn't bench KPJ, lol.. KPJ left.

    Silas would have played him through zoom if he could.

    come on bobby, stop it.

    Not really just this game though. Single digit scoring like 5 straight games. He was trending up and then after the 19, 11, and 5 game, he’s basically been trending downwards.

    He left because he was benched. Try to learn the basic facts if you are going to disagree.

    Given his shooting lately, he wouldn't hit anyone.

    Well his minutes are trenching downwards too, he's not getting anywhere near the 27 minutes he got in that 19/11/5 game.

    Now he gets 2 quick shifts with a huge gap in the middle. If he starts out hot, he'll be cold before he sees the court again.

    When you are playing those kinds of brief, inconsistent minutes, the counting stats usually don't look good. His per 36 minutes are still more than solid though, so I'm not worried about it.

    LOL, so you really don't know the basic facts. Fair enough, I'll educate you.


    He was told at halftime that he was being benched for the rest of the game.....that's why he left.


    This is something everyone knew the night it happened, don't know how you seemed to have missed it.

    lol.. bobby...

    KPJ left the arena. He wasn't benched. he never showed up for the second half to be benched.

    it is a fact that KPJ left the arena

    do you know what a "fact" is?

    come on, bobby. you're a better troll than this.
