Being a gym rat only means the guy loves lifting weights although he is a pogo stick.....does not say anything about his mentality..... I discovered during his 4 years that he loves shooting and practices Freethrows and 3 pointers......his absolute favorites. He improved.
This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Amen Thompson was averaging like 11 points up until this game. He averaged 10 shots per game in the regular season - half of which were putbacks, cuts, dunker's spot shots, etc. On drives, Jalen is better all season. Amen Thompson is way better than that. You're just so desperate to make this point about Jalen that you don't mind making the assumption that this is Amen's limit.
Amen went off because of the spacing - most his points came off steals or downhill in paint 1v1 … FVV finally being hot has made the lanes open up more and Amen being on perimeter vs the dunkers spot helps also… Jesus do yall watch the games or just point at box score and create a narrative
They've changed the definition of hate to any criticism, especially criticism that's earned. Bet he does.
So how do you explain why Jalen didnt go off this game or last game when FVV was hot? OHHHH you can't. how convenient so say that the lanes were opened for Amen but not Jalen. if you actually watched Amens game, he was hesitant and took a lot of midis in the first 5 games, this game Amen was attacking and driving all game.
For the most part, a 6th man needs to be able to shoot ..... Jalen isn't even a 6th man on a winning team. He's a fat salary on a young tanking team helping them reach the salary floor.
It'll be good to have a look at the stats once this series finishes to see who drives better in the post season. Again i am saying Jalen isnt a first or second option im not saying he's a bum. But you JG lovers like to take things to the extreme.
Taking things to the extreme is actually being so ignorant that you are arguing against spacing. There's no argument in the world against spacing. Spacing is good for everyone and especially for those who drive to the basket. No one in the world disagrees with this, there's no system which doesn't prefer this. I didn't say you called JG a bum stop making excuses for yourself. I said your theory that since Amen had one big offensive game it means spacing is not relevant is dumb. I was very specific not to call you dumb and I never said you're calling Green a bum. I've shat on Green for every bad game he's had this series as hard as anyone. You don't have that excuse. How about you tell us right now: what would show up on the court if our spacing was so bad that it was hurting our offense? Define it first instead of nitpicking random isolated sh*t What would happen if poor spacing was affecting our offense? How would it look on average? Please, I'm all ears. Then we can actually see if your hypothesis makes sense at the end of the season and series.
I already told you, there's no point arguing with you about this. Let's just have a look at what the stats say about who is the more efficient attacker of the lane once this series is over. Cause i am very interested in seeing what it shows, my eye test tells me Amen was taking r****ded midis for most of the series hesitating to attack. This game it seemed very obvious he made a conscious decision to attack the lane and he went off. You can say all you want how spacing was amazing this game blah blah blah, but fact of the matter is Jalen is 3/8 this game for 11 points and Amen was 8/12 for 25. Not only did Amen attack more, he was more efficient.
Jalen clowns self-owning themselves will never not be hilarious. Read what you said back to yourself... then ask why you can't replace the word 'Amen' with the word 'Jalen'.
JG had 5 points in the first few minutes before he banged his knee - dimwhit once again the lanes opened up because FVV is hitting shots .. Fred shot 21% from 3 the first 3 games, combine that with the fact JG isn’t in the Dunkers spot - he’s at the 3pt line and the lanes open up
what does this have to do with basketball? You feelin insecure, did the polish secretly turn you on? lol
Defending jalen green at this point with how he has played this series is some real **** sucker energy.
What about last game, did he bang his knee, or did he have some other boo boo. btw you take out his made threes this game, JG was 1/4 fga's WITH SPACING. oh but he had a banged up knee, but he had spacing issues, roster issues, lineup issues, well take away all the excuses and JG has 1 break out game but 4 games where he is 11 points or lower with low efficiency as a NUMERO UNO.
When he was sitting on the bench in the 4th the camera flashed to Jalen and his nails. They were very shiny. He wears them as a fashion statement. Why would you think that noticing them is insecurity or a sexual attraction?
