He's just not that good, man. Was always surprised by your love for him and bum ass Evan Turner.

Just the reality of it, unfortunately. At least in Boston, every 5-6 games or so Jeff would have a great game and have you thinking he's gonna put it all together but it goes back to the same old shyt

I didn't have high expectations for Turner, like I did Green. I always looked at Turner as a good bench piece that you could use in spurts. Green on the other hand, his good game ratio was starting to increase in Boston and it looked as though he may have turned a corner. I could use all the excuses of the Grizzlies' [lack of] floor spacing, Joerger's nonexistent offensive coaching and not playing him through his bad runs, but he just doesn't have it in him to push through the mental barrier of being assertive and wanting it bad enough.

Like @The War Report said above, trade him to a team that suits his style a bit more and he'd probably rekindle some of his game that he left in Boston.

I think the '09 Celtics were 28-2 by Christmas...then they lost an intense Finals atmosphere X-Mas game to the Lakers, and followed it up the next night with an unexpected flat footed 4th qtr L to the Warriors (BDiddy, Cap Jax), in which they were prob a bit emotional drained. After that, they kinda came back to earth plus had to deal with injuries (KG).

So as good as the Warriors are looking now, season is too much of a marathon with letdowns and injuries to make much about 7 games. We've seen teams go on big winning streaks (leading to 70 win hype) only to take that first L and become a bit deflated with some concurrent Ls afterwards.

Warriors ain't looked the same in the last three games as is already. Not as sharp or mentally focused as the first few games of the season. They're just great enough right now that they can still win easily with it being the case. I see them finishing around 67.

Hornets vs Timberwolves should be good to watch too. Two fun young-ish teams going at it. Probably not gonna be the best defense being played but I'm expecting nice highlights.

He was dropping like 18 a game in Boston. Memphis is an offensive grave yard. They should trade him to team that plays with a quicker pace.

i posted about this in the grizzlies forums. im sick of the jeff green excuses. okc- he's playing out of position. boston- he's in a 6th man role. that 18 a game is the real jeff green. i never expected him to be melo/durant. but at least luol deng/rudy gay type of player

he dropped 43 on 23 shots(went 14/16 from the line) 10 boards, 3 assists, 3 steals, a few blocks with only one turnover while playing 41 minutes and they still lost. the talent of that roster, injuries or not, is fukking laughable because instead of rebuilding like they should have, they tried going all in after they got davis.
