    Maybe he should be more frustrated with his own quality of play?

    It's pretty obvious that he's not a good fit here anymore. He's a square peg in a round hole. Udoka's system just isn't a good match for what Jalen wants to do, and Jalen isn't what Udoka wants either. I have no idea why he's still starting, aside from the organization desperately trying to force it to work.

    It's amazing that somebody who was given free reign to be a stat-padding loser by Silas doesn't recognize the chance Udoka is giving him to actually learn how to play winning basketball.

    At this point, we should let him play out the stretch if we're out of playoff contention and then trade him for whatever we can get. Cut bait on this dramatic Jamal Crawford.

    So now that a staff writer has broken the ice on X, maybe we can finally see a lineup change against the Suns?

    If I’m being honest I’m getting more enjoyment this season from Ime driving these players to their breaking point than 50% of the games.

    My hope was for the team to weed out the weakest of the bunch and establish a culture of grind and hustle. If that means destroying our 2nd overall pick, so be it.

    I think we all share his frustrations that he is a bad shooter.

    Jalen Green has had many opportunities, we begged him to be the star of this team. But if it isn't working out then its time to move on.

    Honestly, who cares about this guy's feelings - he has nobody to blame for but himself.

    he’s only getting minutes because of Stone atp

    if it were up to Ime, he’d be in the Aaron Holiday 15 minutes off the bench role

    We care a little less day by day but enough because he is still a Rocket, once he is off the team, no more.

    Frankly, Aaron Holiday is better.







    Holiday shoots 50 % on wide open threes. Jalen Green shoots 27 %. That's a massive difference.

    And Holiday is the better defender as well. A minimum salary player.

    This guy gets it. Much of what I said before the season.

    FVV and Dillon Brooks take away from the kids instead of add. Lesser free agents would have led next to them. Not from ahead or behind. A Monte Morris or Cam Johnson would have been better.




    Jalen needs to go to the Pacers where Myles Turner shoots 3's or Boston where Porzingis
    spreads the court. Get away from Amen (16% from 3) or Sengun lack of shooting from 3.
