    He's often getting buck at the refs, which is wild as a 19 year old rookie

    He needs to get his game together. Homie is a “shooter” that’s missing an awful lot. I’d shut up and hoop if I were Jabari.

    This he's not allowed to bark at anyone if he continues to shoot open 3's like Westbrook

    Bari has as much freedom on this team as anyone else. Folks acting like he needs to shut up and dribble. LOL nonsense

    If there's anyone on this team that is above anyone else it's EG with his how long hes been in the league. Nobody else is close to this. But EG doesn't give af nor should he with how trash this team is.

    every other player on this roster are all in the same boat. All unproven players trying to find their way in this league

    He might develop into a leader, he's certainly outspoken, but he's a rookie that is struggling a bit too much to be taken seriously right now.

    Eh. I'm not a fan of this.


    Green, Jabari, KPJ etc all have made as many if not more defensive mistakes. They play more minutes so it's going to be more naturally but I don't really see a difference in defensive effort between Sengun and the others to have him singled out and Jabari lash out like this at him.

    Not sure this is good for the locker room because I think Sengun would rightfully be pissed at Jabari for calling him out like that given the context.

    With a real coach this shite is less likely to happen, nobody on the team respects Silas so they're just doing whatever.

    There's a large gap between shutting and dribble and yelling at your coach to bench a teamate

    Haha when you have the skills of an Ersan Ilyasova but think you are Garnett and Nowitzki..

    These young guys are so entitled, the chemistry must be so bad.

    That's where no leadership gets you.

    I bet Sengun be telling the basketball not to go in for Smith... These guys have a clear rivalry, I think Smith has the higher upside.

    new to sports? you actually think this is uncommon? try sitting courtside when you can hear players talk one day and all the things being said throughout a game

    A real coach would keep everyone in check on this team. Pathetic public display, keep that ish in-house.

    Good point. That being said, recent events were mostly leaked from private practices, not in the public eye for all to see. He is also ten times the coach Silass is, which is something because he ain't that great either.

    Over the last ten games, Jabari has shot 25% of his threes. He's in no position to criticize anyone, and of course things are getting ugly. Things always get ugly on crap teams.
