I have finally lost FAITH in Jalen, we need to trade him.

The best thing about this thread is how ridiculously self-centred it comes across "I have finally lost faith in Jalen" literally weeks out from him being the best player in the NBA for a month? And you think because YOU feel that way he now has to be traded? Nah, we should trade your fandom to a different team and keep the player who's shown the highest ceiling of all of our youth so far by a country mile. That's a way more logical solution tbh.

 

I have lost faith in @CHAMPBOY being a reasonable evaluator of talent and progress of a NBA player.

 

How do you trash someone all season then lose faith in them?

 

If you buy Jalen’s March stretch of 40% 3pt shooting (despite shooting far below average the rest of the season, including so far in April), then you have to hold onto him for next season. Even if you don’t buy the shooting like me, given the improvement in every other part of his game, and the “star potential”, there’s a strong case to be made for seeing what he does next season. At this point I think you only trade Jalen this offseason if it’s part of a package for a star player. His transition to playing more winning type basketball was enough to change my mind and give him more time. I’m betting it took the first half of the season for Ime’s coaching to set in. But if he can’t improve his shooting, he’s not going to be a good fit with Amen and Sengun. Jalen needs to be in the gym with Ben Sullivan shooting all offseason. We can’t have another year of 33% 3pt shooting from our shooting guard, I don’t care how many highlight dunks.

 

Hey "sniper"

Still here... When did I do this???

I've said 42 wins since before the season.

Search option is there.

Would love to hear what you're talking about.

 

lol

 

This dude made this thread yesterday? What in the ****? I thought this was a rehash thread from 3 months ago.

We’re like 2 games removed from NBA player of the month discussion, the fickleness amongst this fan group with young player is astoundingly awful.

 

the rockets would never make that trade, thats an overpay. Why would you trade a younger talent whos ceiling is just as high or higher than mitchell….

mitchell would get us to the playoffs… top 4? Not so sure about that.

 

Why Bridges? Bridges has had a worse season than Jalen arguably. Bis value has plummeted.

 

I'm starting to think folks on here have never watched games thats located outside the city limit..

 

"Trade Jalen but for another STAR"

Jalen for Kyrie, straight up. discuss.

 

the discourse around Jalen would be a lot different without March. Cause April Jalen looks like he's back to being pre-March Jalen.

 

Y’all dumb. Whole defense of opponents relies on making him a passer and not a scorer yet he still makes some big buckets. If he had anything remote to favorable whistle he would be sitting at 30+ today

I can’t stomach Bari though. He yaps so much yet fumbles every time there is a pressure

 

If you watched tonight's game and thought he's the same Jalen as before you are just unhinged gaslighting at this point. Everything other than his shot is significantly worlds apart compared to the beginning of the season especially with making the right passes off doubles.

Why don't you stfu

 

Absolutely atrocious whistle. Green would have 10 fta if he had Luka's whistle.

 

I would argue that he needs to be utilized more as a playmaker. We have seen this growth in this area the past 2 years. He needs the ball more in hands simply. If he can be an elite playmaker and continue to improve on playing through contact then that can make up for shooting. Players like Morant and Fox aren’t great shooters yet still effective as playmakers and scorers.

 

Agree. Wanted to see the ball in Green's hand more than FVV.

It's time for FVV to take more of backseat.
