    Maybe.. it's just that he's not that good.

    A completely winnable game where they keep putting the ball in his hands for no reason. And he fails spectacularly.

    Well, one guy on our squad had 5 straight baskets in the 4th. Maybe keep going there?

    Don't worry he'll get better next year.

    Silas ruined his first 3 years, it's not his fault.

    He needs time to adjust to Ime's coaching.

    He's trying on defense this year so his offense took a hit.

    Just wait until March, he'll be a superstar again.


    Pick one or more from the above.

    No, he’s just weak. He too weak to be a modern SG.

    Jalen is a 6th/7th and will eventually face up to it on his next team.

    He is the biggest front runner I have ever seen, he backs down from challenges, literally a BUST as a number 2 pick.

    It is time to trade him for a bologna sandwich, Cam will be better.....BENCH GREEN.

    It's coach's fault.

    Coach can take him out.

    Anyone with a brain wanted this to be the "prove it" year, giving him an extention just turns him into a liability, only good for matching salaries and little else.

    He's not a head case. His head works fine.

    I can't believe people are giving up on him. Some shooting guard (forgot his name) who played in 70's had taken a leap in year 5 and became an all star so Green can also do that. If he can't next season there is another one who played in the 60's did in his 6th year. I mean there is always hope. There has to be someone who took a leap in his 7th so we should be patient. Trust the #process

    He needs to be a basket case.
