    So, Dillon Brooks WAS the difference all along. Should we be sending draft capital + the corpse of Durian Finna-Stink to the Suns for The Villian?

    He’s really the same player but weaker physically

    He’s likely got one, right on the landing spot on his lower back. Swish!!

    Feel sorry for the young man because he seems like a nice kid and he has been taking Ls since he got into the league, but man, I sure am he is no longer a Houston Rocket.

    That was always the path. His “best case” comp somehow turned into poor man’s Jordan Clarkson.

    I’ve never been a Jalen fan, but he won’t be this bad for long. He’s just knocking off the rust. He’ll hit his March boom. I predict he’ll play well next season.

    Jalen will have his moments again. He might even end up being a really good player. But he is going to be example 1A for me moving forward about how if you're going to be a wildly inconsistent scorer, you damn well better be providing value in other areas. And if you're just a scorer, you better be really consistent. A bad game every now and then? Fine. A bad game more often than the good ones? Get out, and good riddance.

    Without Booker and Brooks, the Suns scored 77 points against the Blazers, following it up with a 81-point game against the Celtics.

    JVG would love this kind of games.

    Jalen had so many more bad games than good. He played like a legit star in 20% of his games and total trash in the other 80%. The highs and lows was like Linsanity every season. If Jalen could have gotten his good game to bad game ratio to around 1:1 he might actually still be here.

    ... Issue with Jalen is his mental strength ... Even his choice of spouse reflect that :). (Sorry).
