    If you think he is the worst player, maybe you should follow another team/sport as your knowledge is really not showing out on this one

    KPJ came back and was assisting like crazy, then got hurt again. Jalen was playing good as well before he got injured, his previous 4 games were showing signs he was comfortable in getting some consistency going

    CFs has turned into the home of the overhyped role players and overcriticized young draft pick ... Every thread fits seamlessly into one or the other category at some point... Even if the thread is about uniform colors.. lol

    some of the stats are off. it's 39% from 3 and 49% FG, Roosh said as much in the replies.

    Spacing lifts all boats.

    It's just objective fact that Green has been the worst player on the team and one of the worst in the entire league this season.

    I'm legitimately embarrassed for you if you don't realize that.

    You have to shoot to get in rhythm. When he stops over thinking it he'll be fine. He's a natural but not when he's forcing it. I stated that KPj was playing better.

    My thing is....he's good enough to not need his game catered to like Harden. He has other skills that are just as great as trying to iso drive every play. Jalen is better than that. Does the space help? Sure. It's shouldn't dictate his game though.

    Brooks looked comfortable because Sials is running plays the Org has been running for years G league and here. They are just taking the shots and actually making them. Man what I difference. I have reason to believe Jalen won't be a star. We just don't need him to get there selfishly like Harden though... If you thought he looked good then imagine how much better he'll look if he played the right way.

    it takes players time to find the right balance. You got to give rookies as much time as they need to find their feet in the league. Especially in their first season

    You actually have no idea if he is smart or not and guys don't pay attention all the time, if he does not fix his jumpshot it will not matter if he is paying attention or not.

    I am pulling for the guy but his issues are more than watching what mathews is doing.

    Jalen Green doesn't play like Harden at all and isn't catered to in the offense like Harden. KPJ is the one trying to be like Harden. Rockets organization even said they are prioritizing KPJ's development over JG.

    Jalen Green has no problem sitting in the corner and waiting for the ball to not come or working off screens to get his shot. I'm actually surprised he isn't more selfish. If Jalen Green is isoing it's because he had no other choice. Jalen Green is not very good on Iso's, and I think he knows it. Jalen passes the ball very quickly when that first shot isnt there; he passes back to KPJ too quickly sometimes.

    bruh, anything referencing how good Brooks and Garry are playing is because they aren't playing with Theis and more spacing. Are we all forgetting yall were wondering why Brooks was playing so poorly and his shot was ass just a couple weeks ago? Jalen Green played 10 minutes without Theis and scored 11 points. Jalen Green was running the same plays Brooks and Garry are running.
