The Houston Rockets gave up on Jalen Green after 1 playoff series and traded him for a 37 year old and i was told by everybody that it was the right decision. I just canโt ever respect that and try to reason with yโall because there is no universe where iโm giving up on my #2 overall draft pick after he led our team in scoring and led us to the 2 seed as a 23 year old. I am so glad that this happened and i have a bad feeling this trade is going to get worse and worse with every single year.
Jalen Green in his players tribune post:
โIt's nothing but love for the Rockets. I'm sorry I gotta try to bust y'all ass now, but every time I see y'all, it's gonna be love. I mean, I grew up here, for real. Some dudes just be saying that when they get traded, but I really came here at 19 years old still eating Skittles before games, and I'm leaving here as a father. It's been a time, y'all.โ
