Rockets would be dumb to let Houston sports media/Blogs influence them into trading Jalen Green

    Jalen is here for the long haul, I'll bet Stone is readying that rookie max for him as we speak. ;)

    He's gonna need that money too to pay child support for his new 40yo baby mama.

    I can't believe the Rockets were dumb enough to let Houston sports media and blogs influence them into trading Jalen Green

    Sports media and blogs had nothing to do with them contemplating trading Jalen. Him Sucking made everyone want to trade him.

    If Sengun had a string of 30pt games he'd be crowned the next Hakeem. You guys first said Jalen was washed up, and belonged in the g-league, then when he puts up great numbers it's a fluke? Yeah you guys are idiots

    I feel you are barking up the wrong tree Sway

    My reply was a comedian angle for the anti JG4 presidential club members who proclaim his scrub status each game, even if he has what they call a fluke stretch, which is progress from what they claim he only has one good game each month

    I Am not one of those ''guys''

    I actually said wait until his rookie deal runs out to make a decision because its tough development process for guards coming straight out of HS

    Its up to all players to showcase what they are about, and each player carves out their own lane and succeeds or sink, we shall see

    He didn't do enough sucking for Tilman to trade him

    And on the flip side he sucked so much that all potential suitors ran away after offering a sucky trade package offer for the sucky player

    Which is why the trade deadline sucked this year, because the crowned prince of sucking didn't get moved

    Ish happens

    Raise your hand if you were dumb enough to fall for those four fluke games. Too bad no other GM did before the deadline.

    He's here until the offseason.

    Like it or not, deal with it.

    I hope the Rox make some pretty massive changes...but, again, offseason

    Actually, I wanted Stone to deal with it at the trade deadline.
    Instead, he took a nap.

    For what? Team's not going anywhere this year anyway.

    I'm totally cool with making real trades in the offseason.

    That is on Stone to figure out, not me.
    The way things are going, Jalen's trade value will even be lower by the summer.
    So sure, we can wait. But it isnt maximizing his value by doing so.

    Again:

    Traded him to Who for What?

    I disagree, but that's cool.

    Package trade this offseason!?

    Somebody influenced them to open up multiple I.D.I.O.T.s and Grade threads for sure.

    What’s dumdum is keeping him around for three years now watching his value plummet. What do you imagine will happen now that we are waiting until the offseason? That it will bounce back? Why in the world would it do that when all he’s ever done in the NBA is get worse. Expecting any different would be the definition of insanity.

    Not sure Jalen is even worth a bag of Doritos at this point.
