    I mean it’s sad at this point. Please, somebody, mercifully get this guy off the team. He is broken.

    He can only get so many chances. You can't lack basketball iq and suck at shooting. But he is both, along with shaky handles. He simply does not contribute winning basketball with his lack of skillset.

    He’s just too inconsistent unfortunately to be a star.

    When I cautiously mentioned that I was unsure if Jalen was worth the Max or not a couple of months ago people lost their minds and didnt even understand how that could be a question.

    Jalen Green does not belong to NBA, the sadness is that he is not even a good bench player right now.. so sad that our #2 draft pick does not look like a basketball player, just brings harm to this team...

    sad that after sucking for all these years the only good player they got from the draft is Sengun and he wasn't even a top 15 pick

    Zero improvement to his offensive game since he got drafted.

    It was time to start thinking about moving Jalen Green the second we drafted him because people were calling him the next Kobe or MJ PFFFFHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I can’t believe people were actually saying that crap

    At this point, it will be a success to develop him into a productive bench scorer like Lou Wiliimans or Jordan Clarkson?

    I get jealous every time we play a team who has a shooting guard that can shoot. It must be so nice to have that luxury.

    When I'm having a bad day, I just remember that at least I'm not a Jalen only fan. The most delusional fans on earth.

    I’m convinced the Jalen Only Fans are sexually attracted to him

    The kid is simply not a NBA player. It’s sad to watch him struggle to do the simplest of things on the court. He’s not good at anything.

    Told y’all this a year ago. Told y’all he didn’t have mamba in him. Could see it a mile away. Told y’all to trade him for Ausar before the draft. And told y’all KPJ was better at basketball

    Hope the kid turns it around but I do enjoy this board coming down on him after two of trying to tell y’all

    And you all owe Bobby and Dakota a apology

    Rockets got extremely unlucky during their tank years. Missed out on Cade, Chet, Paola, Wemby.

    Jalen & Jabari both look like busts.

    Silver lining are Alpi & Bari.

    Jury out on Amen & Whitmore.

    No way I pay Jalen close to a max contract. If that’s what he wants then trade his ass…

    He never ever played in high pressure situations in his life and that's why he's garbage. In HS, it was too easy, playing against weak competition. He played in the G league for a development team and winning was never a priority. Last 2 seasons, they were tanking. It's why he probably should have gone to college. He has no idea how to play basketball, let alone winning basketball. It's why he thinks he can just drive to the rim and fails 9/10 times. He might get it together one day but unfortunately for him, time is ticking and his replacement has already been drafted. Once the team that drafts you lets you go as a 2nd pick, no other team owes you anything.
