    Lol the projection from you is hilarious.

    Anyway, as much fun as I have making fun of you, I'm going to go ahead and block you now for the good of the board. Perhaps you'll stop derailing threads down on your knees for your boyfriend if you think no one is watching your PDA.

    Take care kiddo.

    you're comparing reed in his first year as opposed to Jalen in his 4th year. One player has prob less than 1000 minutes played against one who has over 10000? I never said reed played great but I do believe his minutes were inconsistent. Meanwhile Jalen was groomed as #1 option so relatively he was trash and wildly inconsistent considering he is in his 4th year and really all we have to look at is how bad he was in his 1st playoff.

    Had one ball out game and 6 games where he was completely missing. If he didn’t have the break out game he would be averaging single digit PPG as a number 1.

    The fact our organization was only willing to let him go out of all our bench and starters just show how little faith the organization had in him and keep in mind Stone had to defend him after the playoffs just to keep what little value he had afloat.

    Reeds minutes werent inconsistent he just played bad so he had limited minutes. Just compare Reeds first year to Jalen first year Jalen playing on a bad team as the first option scored more than 4 pts on 35% FG.

    Yes JG had a bad playoff series it happens. But our playoffs were just 7 games he had 82 games where he played better. Reed also had like 5 good games but he played 52 games and most of those he was bad. So its not like Reed had inconsistent mins its just that when you are shooting 35% you wont get a lot of minutes.

    So are you willing to take up Bobby's challenge and bet me 100 usd Reed will get a higher contract? If he is better than Jalen he would get paid.

    Pass from the pelicans game that also didn't. end up in a stat.

    Rockets havent had a guy who makes passes like this since Harden.

    Almost as good as Okogie's pass to Alvarado a moment later.

    Reed should start tomorrow. He probably won't but he should. The more he advances the better we'll be come May.
