    We definitely gonna regret the trade whether he becomes a superstar or not. He could’ve been a great SG for this team

    I only hope Stone realizes he should never listen to Ime input on roster construction again. I wouldn’t mind the Durant trade if FVV was involved. As I said last summer, Ime, FVV, and KD gonna be the downfall of this rebuild. Sprinkle DFS in there for Ime as well

    Rockets fans are the most b**** made pieces of **** in the nba

    This bust low iq nail painting cuck jalen green was why we couldn’t win vs an old and injured gsw last season.

    We drafted this trash piece of **** over the likes of scottie barnes and evan mobley for him to be what, a glorified JR smith

    Now he beats a hospital warriors team led by a injured curry and the 20 IQ morons on this forum act like we wouldn’t be a lottery team with this bust on our team instead of durant. Pathetic,

    Jalen was playing better than Booker in their 2 play-in games.

    Don't fool yourself.

    Jalen has talent he is just extremely streaky. His situational awareness needs to improve. By his late 20s he will be a much more consistent player.

    Perhaps it's just the Suns have better coaching.

    They know how to use him properly.

    And? Booker is a glorified bradley beal. Please remind me what happened in the last rockets suns game?

    If you like this bust so much go root for the poverty team in the desert

    Jalen was Jalen. The gameplan Phoenix had and executed against GSW was flawlessly executed .



    I said last May that Jalen had a below average system but the bigger issue for it was Ime. GSW implore the same same strategy versus Green the second half and he made the same decision tk pass the ball to his open teammates and not force the issues the suns other players actually made the right lays and open shots.


    The rocks last April could win 4 on 3. That’s not Jalen’s fault. The bigger issue for that was the spacing. The Warriors would blitz Jalen the perimter and the other 4 players didn’t react the right way. They didn’t space out to make to hard for the scrambling warriors to recover. It just bad coaching.

    Durant didn't lead his team to the playoffs last year......... They went 36-46, with Dillon and Jalen they went 45-37 and reignited their future because Jalen isn't even 25....... Keep trying to make yourself feel better..... The real ones know what a major f-up it was to trade him..... Good luck fooling yourself....

    Too bad stats from the play-in dont officially count. Let's see how he does in a real 7 game series where you can make adjustments and you're actually playing against an opponent in the playoffs.

    Too late damage done as Stone/Ime ruined what was a very promising future by giving Jalen and Whitmore away ((i.e., offensive talent) for a soon to be 38 year old who they are killing by playing 38 minutes a game and who’ll be out of the league in a few years. You can’t teach stupidity. Would rather have Green, Whitmore, and the top 3 pick in this year’s draft that Stone inexplicably gave away, but instead we’ll be taking on the OKCs, Spurs, T-Wolves, Nuggets of the future with 33 year old Fred and 38 year old Durant. That’ll win us a bunch of championships!!!
