It was Jalen first playoff series. I seriously hated that we overracted and as always panicked trade for geriatric kd. Folks btch and whine about relying on the potential of old ass harden and is yet fine with kd. Its debatable if green would make us regret trading him but post kd, game 1 Lakers is what it looks like which is depressing as fk. Cant even beat Ole ass bron with out their 2nd and 3rd best player.
This to me is more about what I think the REAL issue is.....SENGUN! Ive said it several times before, Jalen needed lanes to drive, space and Sengun is a space eater. When his shot was/is not falling, he needed lanes to drive. He could not drive because Sengun camps out inside the paint and he does not have a 3pt shot. Additionally, I said numerous times, you can not build around a 6'9 center who does not play well against opposing players with length. People tried to make him out to be BABY JOKIC....He is not Jokic. However, Im not blaming Sengun, I blame Stone and Ime for the direction this team is headed! We have a 37yr old 1st OPTION, we have a 23yr 2nd OPTION who struggles against length, in which almost every good team has length and we have a team full of players who are INCONSISTENT.
Sengun was always the issue, he'll even kpj played better when he was out and we had a rolling big to catch lobs
Sengun plays 5 out now. And you haven't seen how many times Jalen says they're working on paint decisions since joining the Suns? The coaches in Houston don't do that.
I kind of feel they dropped the ball, they could of went the route of the Harden WB pairing, play Amen in Alpi spot and still brought in KD to help while keeping JG but Ime dream of 90s basketball minus guards is going to be the death of the Rockets
Why is he so bad in Phoenix then? Who's fault is it there? He's been worse in Phoenix than he was in Houston.
Using this thread as a coping mechanism since we lost to a Lakers team missing Luka and Reaves perhaps?
Haven't you heard? He was out most of the yr with injuries and he just rounded back into basketball shape. Same ask DFS, who is totally out of our rotation.
We were missing KD, don't have a point guard and our head coach is a terrorist. Did you really think we weren't underdogs?
Great pass to Big only for SGA to block it at rim lol OKC pushes lower body with forearm while blocking with other arm …refs let them get away with a lot and the team is already loaded Booker is looking very…..
They are allowed to play a style that no other team is allowed to play. It's really frustrating to watch. They already have the best players and then they also get the most leeway from refs, reminds me of the warriors during the whole Curry/Kerr era.
you really posted this thinking you cooking when he’s 1 shot from 50%FG - Alpi was 3-13 in the 3rd qtr last night
and yet way better than jalen green; let me know when jalen makes an all star team. You posted a tweet that said jalen green liked the spacing more on the suns and it helps him get better looks and he's still bad today
And yet Green is only shooting his average of 42% from the field and a career low from 3, while turning the ball over at a career high rate... The guys best case scenario is going to be Zach Lavine. We got out of being stuck with him. Be happy.
