ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Pistons 1/12/2024

Not every guy in America is 6'4 haha....I hear your sentiment.

But a lot of Americans are fatter than Jalen....

 

jalen still ball watches way too much and his positioning and communication is still ****. i understand he doesn't like being physical, but he is still charmin soft... defensively he is the only one on this team who is like that.

i know some are still defending jalen, hats off to you. i was also onboard the jalen hype train up until this season and i was destroying kpj last season for being the same player he was since he came into the league. well guess what, jalen is in his third yr and i see absolutely no improvement. for ppl saying his playmaking and defense has improved... no it hasn't. the team, the coaching, and the overall scheme has improved - jalen has not. everything still seems so fast for him - all that game experience and yet he still doesn't know where to be. it's not all on silas... jabari, alpi, tari... they aren't clueless like jalen. it's like none of the game experience that jalen has accumulated over the past two plus seasons has done him anything... he is easily the weakest link still on the defensive end no matter what lineup is thrown out there.

 

I don't know Jalen is on the front of some magazines to be fair

 

This certain guy's anger is bigger than whole CF:

 

The whole situation was when Jalen Green was not even drafted or right when he was drafted......

People were calling him Kobe......those are mostly the same people that are his disciples.

I get that there are haters as well, but his stans sound much worse.....

 

Feel bad for Detroit fans, man…I feel like their ownership either doesn’t know what they’re doing or don’t give a damn about them

 

What you expect from a management which hires Silas after his awful stint at Houston?

After seeing Pistons and listening Bulls commentators I am more grateful for being Rockets fan.Sometimes we take things as granted. I am very sorry for Pistons fans for the team/coaching and for Bulls fans for having those dumb&dumber.

 

How many games have you played in your life where your team needed/trusted you to put up 25 shots

Rather Green goes 2/10 or 12/19 or 9/25 it will always be a trail of BS from his anti group and praise/reason from the pro-group

But W's always offset these type of performances shooting wise, see Jordan performance vs Jazz in last Finals, nobody remembers his volume shooting struggle that series or the series where Payton held him to like 20-23ppg on individual defense and Jordan avg lowest PPG in Finals career

And I Am not comparing the two, just simple situations of low % on volume shooting but winning the games

Just imagine had the Rockets lost and he only took 10 total shots against the worst team in league, then you and others would be crying about the lack of aggression from a scoring/shooting guard

He could just as easily been 12/25, oh well on to the next game and the BS that comes with it

 

What an awful game and so many minor things to make it easier on ourselves, which should include less Jalen Green waving off Sengun to do his thing and more Jabari on offense.

 

Good points here although Jordan's TS% in that Jazz series was around 51% - not great but not a complete disaster and he still averaged over 33 points a game (and won the series). If Jalen could win us a chip, or even one playoff series at this point, then he is the golden boy no matter what percentage he shoots!

 

She's 6'1 confirmed.

 

See it from another angle.....Silas means Medieval times for the Pistons.....

Things can only go up after removing Silas.....

 

She can get it to 6'1.....that's fantastic.

 

A couple of those drives to the rim were fouls uncalled. He played a good game. The refs jsut didn’t respect his game. Toning.

 

Going on the ignore list has become the new
" Him mad" .. lol

 

I love it when people loudly announce they're putting someone on ignore. Such drama!

 

LMAO..

 

Pistons are better without Cade
