Please, do show me the typical examples of star franchise players averaging 19 points in the playoffs in the last 10 years? 90's-early 00's...
Again, your point is irrelevant. Forget Harden, forget anybody else. Sengun's numbers are not star player numbers, if he was a real star player,...
Zubac's numbers are 18.8 11.5 3.3, and he's doing it on 64% from the field. He's a role player. Sengun's supposed to be our big all star/franchise...
He shouldn't be the team's leading scorer though, he's not that guy. The stars should be asserting themselves as the Alpha of the team and leading...
Dillon Brooks Jabari Smith Jr Tari Eason Stephen Adams Jeff Green That's probably your top 5. Which is why you don't build rosters on 2 way...
So the "star" generates roleplayer numbers by himself, but if we paired him with an actual star he'd put up better numbers? Sure, that's how that...
So did you just ask me what our "star" player would be doing playing as a roleplayer for our former star player? Kinda proves my point more than...
That's irrelevant to the discussion. Do Alpi's numbers resemble star numbers or roleplayer numbers so far? If those are his "star" numbers then...
Zubac has 3 double doubles with 18.8pts to Alpi's 19.3. Pretty damn close tbh, Sengun is not performing like a star player at all.
Sengun can be both better than Jalen and not remotely putting up star performances at the same time, you realise that right? Jalen is putting up...
One's the star player, the other is "6th man at best." Go show me all the times the Nuggets 6th man put up more superstar performances than Joker?...
Exactly how I see it tbh. I'm happy to accept that Jalen hasn't been the star, so to keep putting star expectations on him is wrong. We should...
I'm happy to accept the consensus narrative now. Jalen's not the star player. Great, let's start blaming the actual star players for the losses...
Absolutely.
Jalen's not moving on to big money, you do realise that right? He's on a 3 year $106 million deal, 35 million a year isn't star money, it's not...
Only for shooting guards, if you're a center all of the shots are good even if you never make them and your FG% looks more like a backcourt than...
He doesn't believe in offense. The entire philosophy is "hustle harder than them, play tough and turn defense into offense" anything else is too...
Ime definitely won't. But it makes sense. We've seen Jalen's not it so retool around the stars (Alpi and Fred) and build towards their gameplan....
I think this is fair. Which then brings us to the point that we now need to look to the people paid to be the stars (Fred and Alpi) or touted to...
This speaks to the "Jalen Green paradox" on Clutchfans. This is the bizarre notion that Jalen is both 1.Not a star player whilst also...
