    No need to go that far look at his classmate Mobley, Cade, Scottie, Suggs, Sengun. On a redraft he wouldn’t even go top 10

    He didn’t single-handedly do anything. Ime is the worst offensive coach I have ever seen. He is a terrible bench coach that kills momentum constantly with his terrible formulaic rotations. I’m fine with getting rid of Jalen in a fair deal or Sengun for Giannis, but no matter what we do this off-season we won’t be contenders until Ime is gone. I knew FVV was fools gold. Amen is the only untouchable on this team and if Ime would have just told him to take over and get out of the way, we would have had a chance even with everybody else playing like sh*t.

    Tonight was bad. Really disappointing. He needs to take a long look at himself after that performance.

    I am so over Green. He doesn't deserve to be in this team. You can't fix his mentality

    Jalen Green can be traded for a conditional 2029 second.

    I am glad that this series happened. This gives the FO clarity on what to do with Jalen. we could have wasted another year or two thinking he's part of the core. These 7 games saved us 365 days. We can put Jalen up for trade and get KD or Booker

    Give him one more year. We weren’t winning a championship this year or next anyway.

    He's been consistantly inconsistant for 4yrs what made you think when the pressure was on he would be anything other than the same dude.

    Bruh you are the biggest Ime hater on this forum. Our defense held curry to 3 ****ing points in the first half. We would have won if Jalen just averaged 15 ppg.

    Stop with these horrible takes. Name some alternatives we can get clown

    I agree pretty wholeheartedly with this take. Give the keys to Amen as our perimeter dude. We dont NEED to go after Giannis, he will likely cost too much. If he can had without giving up Amen, Alpy or Bari… sure.

    Otherwise I’m sure teams like Washington, Charlotte, New Orleans would be interested. I think even Orlando or Chicago would bite too

    man got a thot twice his age pregnant. good decision making isn't in his DNA. he's hardwired to fail when it really matters.

    this man has a few problems:
    timid mentality (he's a nice kid, but you can tell he does not have the Alpha like Amen)
    can't break down his defender unless there are picks run for him (couldnt beat Curry 1 on 1)
    can only drive in a straight line which is easily defended by a shadowing center like Draymond
    Has no other dribble skills except going fast, his crossovers are static and just eats up the clock.
    highly streaky, gives you a break out game every 1 out of 5
    Has idiot fans like @Mathloom who have their head so far up his ass they cant see the truth

    Exactly -Warriors schemed to shut down JG and Ime did nothing to counter it and get JG his rhythm player shots - just like he failed to get our best shooter this series Bari any easy looks

    Ime just said okay we will keep dumping it in to Alpi and GS said fine we will trade 0-2 for 2-3 on the other end and when we really want to shut him down we will play him 1v1 with Looney or Draymond

    another example is we on a 14-2 run and cut the lead to 3 and Ime sits sits JG and Alpi and Eason proceeds to **** the bed

    Segun gave effort .. he seems like he will work on his limitations… he is still young and will get better!

    Green’s is totally inexcusable… he had 6 BAD GAMES! He was so scared you could see it.. no this moments are too big for him, the missed free throws lack of engagement on defense says everything.. just trade him for the best you can get .. such a waste of talent

    @astros123 you are a idiot in general, but you’re right about this. **** Jalen Greens fingernail painting, lack of self esteem, pansy ass.
