No he isn’t!

Morant made Jalen Green look like a statue on that last drive to the hoop. Lmao.

With all his athletic ability, Jalen should be a better defender than he is.


You know I actually think Jalen is an ok defender for the type of player he is and holds up pretty well.....obviously hes never going to be some perimeter stopper but he's made a lot of strides in that area and I say that with the utmost unbias

When you compare to other players of his mold for example Tyler Herro, Malik Monk, Zach Lavine, Jordan Clarkson ect I think he's noticeably better than that


He definitely has some moments still though lol
 
I'm talked about this before but I was confused by Memphis not extending Aldama or picking g up Laravias rookie option

Both of them have developed nicely and have become good players

I like Santi’s game a lot. He is a solid all around big. Dude will stick in the league barring injuries for a long time.


He's improved on the two things that he needed to work on...gotten better every year

Became a consistent stretch big(almost 39% from 3 on about 4.5 attempts per game) and he's become a solid defender as well

look how many good players they got, how easy it is for them to create good players out of thin air, and then look at the Ja/Bane/JJJ combo

If I was them Idk why I would rush to extend them either

More for jake than Santiago

I agree.

They are kinda similar to Houston in the fact that they have a bunch of young productive forwards who need to prove which one fits (or is overall) the best with the main guys.

You can’t sign everyone and why rush to do so when you have the power to match deals while assessing

Grizzlies are way more in need to consolidate than the raptors are

Their big 3 are established and you just need to add a 4th guy to that mix and you are a legit contender

Idk what’s the hold up with them

Well I guess the injuries
