    Yeah, his business but just saying he has not been seeing her that long...... at least he was not shooting blanks like he did in many games.

    I pray that's not true for Green's sake.

    If it is. Zero IQ, on and off the court.

    Give this man a max what could go wrong!

    dude if you don't want to root for green, why don't you just go root for another ****ing team. Tired of reading you **** on who has been our best player recently. if you can't see how good, how valuable green is, you got issues dude.

    He's definitely playing a lot better and I've been pretty critical of him. It's good to see

    Wide open games fit Jalen better, but great teams in the playoffs don’t play this way.

    Red = Bad shooting nights
    Green = Good shooting nights

    What I see is a lot more red than green.
    Sure, since the 24th of January, he has had some good nights.
    But an 8 game stretch doesn't prove a thing unless he can sustain it.

    If he's traded, will you follow him to his new team?

    That's the problem. A few good games vs consistently putting up good percentages. I want to see consistency. I want to believe, but until he can consistently up his percentages I will remain skeptical. I'm not jumping up and down thinking he's great for a few sporadic spurts of good shooting. Show me consistent improvement with percentages. I liked that he found ways to score last night without chunking a bunch of 3's, but we need a good 3 PT shooter as a SG. He also needs to improve on his assist/turnover ratio. 1 assist to 4 turnovers wasn't good. Then I look at how he's done the last 10 games and he's shooting 46.2% FG and 28 2% from behind the arc. This is year 3. That 3PT percentage is my biggest problem with the guy you want as your starting SG. That, and his assist/turnover ratio. He's so far behind the pack in ranking among shooting guards in those parts of his game..

    when people say Jalen is playing better lately, are they including his defense?

    To be fair, he had two games when he was 7-16 overall. Which isn't actually "bad", even though in the Christmas color scheme those games show as red.

    I won't go into the 3 point shooting because even in some "good" games that part is sometimes off.

    I'd say he's had a few of his best defensive games in the last 10. Otherwise pretty similar to the previous 10. Which is to say: the best of his career, but still not a good defender.
