We literally get “Jalen Green has figured it out” posts every March/early April though lol

He always finishes this part of the year extremely strong and then forgets how to be consistent by the time October comes along it seems way too early to take a victory lap given that he’s done this 2-3 times

A sample size of 2 games, so informative

“across 2 play in games” made me actually lol

Two things are true. Green can be a chucker and the Rockets had horrible spacing and overrelied on the chucking by their own roster construction.

Its 2 games. Lets see his stats vs okc next week.

Jalen shot 42/31/75 splits across this season which is trash tier.

Cam Thomas shot 41/31/81 and got cut twice.

Let’s not get this too twisted. He still takes the same shots, they just happened to go in these last two games.

Man it’s two games, he gon be in the dorture chamber soon. You can’t expect this to sustain against OKC

Using a 2 game sample size is interesting

I feel like he’s still the same player. He can give you 5 or 35, I don’t think that has changed yet. Nonetheless, an incredible performance.

ah i remember this phase

2 whole games you say!?!?!

He was genuinely ass in so many Rockets games, it wasn’t just the system. Two things can be true at the same time.

I don’t want to be a downer when he did have a good game but bringing up TS% is funny when he had his worst TS% of his career this season.

He is still a low IQ shot chucker. He is just a low IQ shot chucker that has 2-4 high profile games a year where the chucks go in and trick people into making posts like this one. Rinse and repeat.

This sub is enjoying Jalen right now because of a sample size of two games? lol

Are you just going to ignore the regular season and focus on a 2 game sample size?

was jalen green shooting 42/31/75 this season also because of houston’s poor offensive infrastructure

I’ve seen this convo before!

“Damn, has Jalen Green finally figured it out?” Narrator: No, he had in fact not figured it out.

He does the same thing every year this time of the year. If a 2 game sample size is fine, why not bring up the 32 game sample size where his ts went down??

Let’s see what his PPG is in a 7 game series.

Lol “across 2 games”. Everyone knows he can score the issue was always inconsistency. 2 good games doesnt make him consistent

Even a broken clock is right twice a day

Across “2 play in games”, are we genuinely serious

Gonna see a sample size of 1 game soon

And he’s still all those things lol

Wait till he goes up against the OKC gauntlet of guard defenders, he about to feel like he playing a souls game, some Elden Ring

plz dont rewrite history, this is just who he is

Rockets fans still haven’t realised that while jalen’s performance in the playoffs last season was terrible, sengun and amen thompson were also quite terrible, and torpedoed the rockets offence and spacing for the entire series.

He’s still a chucker bro, trust me

You just said ‘for years he was described as streaky’ and then began discussing the conclusions you drew from a 2 game sample?

He looked surprisingly good tonight

He’s still bad lol but shoutout him he’s been good lately

Shooting variance is a thing lmao. I remember 2 seasons ago, he ended those last few weeks of that regular season playing at a 1st team all-NBA level. He just isn’t consistent

think jalen green should just stick to playing games in march and april

Across 2 play-in games 😂😂😂

He’s still inconsistent lol. I remember in that series last year against golden state he had an explosion just like this but then dropped 8 points in the elimination game 7. It’s what he is a microwave scorer can get hot really fast but is just as prone to getting cold very fast

It’s only been two games, but we can see a complete difference compared to the Jalen Green we saw in last year’s playoffs with Houston. Let’s hope for him and for the Suns that this continues against OKC in the first round. The Suns will need it if they hope to even win a game!

Unfortunately a team will have more than 1 day to game plan against him. He’ll go off maybe the first 2 games then ride out averaging 8ppg

Do you know what Inconsistent means?

You can’t remove the tag with a 2 game sample size.

Consistent for a whole 2 games. Calm down.

Talking about consistency over two games while ignoring the season lol

He is low IQ chucker lol

Just because you have a good game, doesn’t make up for the last 5 bad games lol

When they lose against OKC, good luck keeping that same energy 😂

He gets rejuvenated by that 17 year age gap

Its just Halliburton or Avdija all over again. Folks don’t give talented players enough time to figure it out before trouncing them. And then when they figure it out, they start dick riding like they have always known.

across 2 play in games

He’s streaky. If his stats become consistent, he’s a star.

He’s still inconsistent but he’s also only 24. I do think Phoenix and Ott specifically are better for his development though.

The main hurdle for him is consistency. that effortless glide into his spots is very much like SGA. Idk what’s missing is durability, strength or skill, his elite flashes only show when he’s on, whereas SGA does it as repetitive chores.

Uhh dude was one of the least efficient worst shooters in the league this year. Wtf are you smoking

Like clockwork every March/April

Here we go again

7 points in Game 1, calling it now

He’s still an inconsistent low IQ shot chucker.

Holy shit it has been two games. This sub is so goddamn reactionary.

He got written off so fast due to struggles coming off a hammy injury. He’s been very good since finding his groove

Having Booker does a lot to Jalens game

Nobody’s falling for this post you moron

Ppl will hold onto the “Jalen Green is trash” narrative forever. Stop trying to fight it. Just let it be and just enjoy watching him improve as a player. Really happy for him

Btw I don’t mean this as a Houston hate post, I understand they were limited this year due to FVV/Adams injuries but they were a very flawed offense. Just wanted to point out that he was an extremely talented young player in a messy situation that didn’t fit him.
