He’s only half right. The team is in desperate need of Jalen to step into the lead guard superstar role that they drafted him to be. But Fred is definitely an issue. He was a training wheel that has turned into a crutch and they need to rip the bandage off asap. But at this point it’s probably too late.
The whole needing Fred to pass the torch thing but Jalen not being ready is a chicken and an egg thing but with a clear starting point. Jalen was never actually given lead guard duties to learn through the growing pains of being that guy and having to set ppl up. People assume he was but he’s never been given the lion share of facilitating duties. In his first 2 years, it was KPJ. He was the point guard and was the main ballhandler in the offense until he left the team. After that, it was Fred. And Ime was not about to sacrifice wins trying to let Jalen learn how to facilitate.
It’s always been a weakness of Jalen’s game. He’s not a natural facilitator of the basketball. Even PGs who get drafted as passers have a learning curve. But what smart bad teams do when they draft players like Jalen is they force them to learn those lead guard skills because they know it’s an essential skill of elite players in the league. To now think Jalen will just learn how to do with without ever putting in the actual work to help him develop those skills, is not realistic.
Overall, Jalen is a flawed player cause he’s at his best when he has the ball in his hands but can’t facilitate but the rockets prioritized KPJs development and now wins with a flawed process and a clear ceiling, over developing this. They’ve tried and failed to make him an offball player. It might be too late for him but they can’t make the same mistake with Amen
aint much to try. Scottie doesn't have FVV, Pascal, or OG anymore. Raptors currently down 50 to the Celtics btw...
FVV with 6 attempts tonight
ya'll gonna say he's the ball dominant hijacker thats whyJalen himself is 8-19 for 18 points so far lol
(whooping no assists as well) I cannot believe ya'll let double clutch compare him to Kobe. That's my only gripe. He's a fine inefficient maybe improving player one day. But to ride with a nikka that called this kid Kobe and trolling Kobe after his death? Ya'll idiots

Lemme get this straight 
Many of you have gave up on Jalen and claim he's having a bad year
I should “sell my JG stock” according to some in this thread….
However, Rockets are 2nd in the west
Jalen green is leading them in scoring
Just dropped 33 in a win vs lakers
I really wanna see what a “good” year looks like
Seems like the JG haters have higher expectations for him than me

Started giving him the ball more and taking it away from FVV
Imagine if he gets consistent on 3s. His entire game will “explode” 
Shocker now him and Amen are taking off without the vet dribbling the air out the ball and slowing the pace
you been calling this nikka Kobe for four years and he shooting the worst he's ever shot, averaging almost as many turnovers as assist, and his team performs better when he's off the floorLemme get this straight

He’s still only 23 just admit he’s the future
His ceiling is “young Kobe” and I stand by that
Nobody saying he’s going to have a Kobe type career

Time to go!!
This the dumbest take you’ve made so far. watch some fukking games and not basketball reference. The more you post, the more you show you just a Cade fanboy and dont really watch Houston games You’re prolly the same idiot that believe the lakers are also better with LeBron off the floor because of +/- stats. And you keep bringing up assists like he’s a fukking pg He’s not a pg. our system doesn’t depend on him to be a facilitator. It depends on him to be a plus defender and a scorer.
Let go of the stupid beef. Houston and Detroit ain’t battling in the tank wars nomore. Houston on a whole nother level compared to your squad. Y’all ain’t beating us since 2021. It’s not a rivalry to us.
