That doesn't matter in asset management - he is the more valuable trade chip, so you can get more for him when you have one that is equal or better in production in KPJ already on the roster. DD
Open shots pfffft. Man can't even draw fouls from defenders. Kpj isn't a big enough offense threat to draw double teams yet he's able to create open shots for his teammates. Sengun gives his teammates wide open shots, kpj just dumps it to his teammates regardless if they are guarded. U set up your rookies and youngster in the best possible position by having someone who actually knows how to play pg/ distribute the ball not some youngster learning it on the fly. It's like saying a dude learning English for the first time tasked to teach English isn't gonna hinder the learning development of said students. Stupidity is strong In kpj fans.
No they aren't being a blind fan is stupid and you should know that. We don't need to get attached to ANY player, we need a roster that works - this one does not and arguably our two best players play the same position move one of them to get better at a position of need. DD
Why would anyone contemplate the trade? Let's trade for Gainnis then if we want absurd hypotheticals. About about Luka?
Your tantrum has no basis in fact. The numbers show the open shots are being created, you just need to make excuses for players that suck right now. I get it, you wish Jalen Green didn't suck. I wish he didn't suck too....that's not a reason to try and tear down the few players on the team performing well.
Kpj isn't performing well though. He's has the lowest +/- three games in a row. All Ls. U can say he's doing better than Green and smith in some games but it's a given when he's the one hindering the development of the two youngsters. Luckily sengun development isn't that hindered by kpj, man was honed playing with adults in his league. Please stop acting like I'm acting up and all of sudden decided to call out kpj. My stance was always consistent kpj isn't a pg and this stupid experiment is hindering the development of the young players.
If your only analysis is raw plus minus then you probably shouldn't be even attempting to talk basketball. When KPJ is out there on the court with 3 of the worst players on the team in Gordon, Green, and Smith, of course that'll negatively effect his raw plus minus numbers....doesn't mean he's not performing well. In the past 10 games, KPJ is putting up 23/6/5 with a 63 TS% and is hitting over 40% on his 3's Sorry kiddo, but your narrative is incredibly ignorant. KPJ is trending better while basically the rest of the team besides Sengun just suck.
Lol I can't imagine LaMelo being in the mood to praise other players of his age group now. Dude got injured on a bad shooting night and his team is constantly losing. Can't think he's in a good headspace now. World's of talent though, bordering on generational in some instances with his ball skills at his height.
LOL... It's like Jalen read this thread and marked the Bobcats game on his calendar. "Trade me for who now... oh that guy who can't stay on the court this season... checkmate"
The problem is the Hornets aren't trading their franchise player for Green...... this is just all an exercise for you to trash Green and prop up KPJ which has been your MO the entire season. I would trade LaMelo for Green in a heart beat..... I'd also trade a KPJ centered package for Kuzma in heartbeat.
Exactly. He's so eager to be right about Green sucking that he puts all this stupidity into the universe. It's obvious KPJ ain't a point guard and likely never will be. If he's better than Green in 5 years it is what it is, but I wouldn't bet on that being the case.
Well I hope they are both great, and KPJ is better right now....but he is 2 years older so...there is that. DD
