    The moment I saw Jabari and Sengun held each other accountable on the court was the moment I knew these two both had that dawg in them.

    They don't go crying to the media or throw a tantrum after they get mad at each other on the court, instead they both improve try to be better players.

    So far it's worked out. Just look at how they react to getting benched. Both Sengun and Bari got benched by Ime and they've both responded in kind.

    Also I think both these guys love to be coached, shouted at, held to a higher standard. That's rare for 20 year olds.

    That's not true...Go watch the game again and tell me when Jabari and Sengun were on the same side, how many assists Sengun gave to Jabari for him to make 3s. Those were exactly plays drawn for Jabari

    Nope..
    Green has low basketball iq, this has nothing to do with system, he is not ready to play structured basketball.
    What's not knowing how to dribble, not knowing when to pass has to do with system?
    Some fans trying to cover Jalen’s inadequate basketball fundamental with this "new system" excuse started to become funny..
    We all have difficulty to accept that our 2021 #2 draft is not NBA starting caliber player, but this is reality.
    This is not insult to Green, we all watch matches...
    He brings nothing to the table, if your only talent is scoring and you can not score consistently, you become useless...

    The complaints were posted whether the contents were true or not. You seem to contest the contents and I won't want to get there because I think what is going on is working considering Bari's greatly improving play.

    What? Could you please rephrase what you are trying to say?

    I was saying playing Jabari and Sengun on the same side is intentional. When Sengun draws double team, it opens up shots for Jabari.

    And you were saying?

    Bari has done a tremendous job of being much more than a 3 and D guy, which is what alot of you goofballs wanted him to be.. Sengun made me a believer this year.. Simple as that

    Brings nothing to the table, except more star level scoring performances than every single one of our other young draftees combined. Statements like this only work when somebody's been consistently bad their entire career. That's not true of Green, his biggest issue is inconsistency, ergo, there are times he plays exceptionally well and times he doesn't. You might have a point if he was consistent at this level, but his top 10 career NBA games are star level, not scrub level. That means he has potential to be good at the very least.
