Just checking in since the Rockets loss and we crucified Jrue. Where did/are we shipping him to?

If our medical staff weren’t so uber conservative we’d be well on our way to seeing Jrue grow that mustache and balling out

Jrues my favorite pel. One good game doesn't absolve him from inconsistent play. If he's (supposed to be) your best or 2nd best player, he has to do this more often than not.

The problem with Jrue post-AD is expectations. We all know the equation is that happiness = expectations - reality. It was exacerbated by Griff crowing him as an MVP type player in the preseason. I get it was a strategic PR move, but fans got too excited.

What is certain is that he has exceeded my personal expectations since he has been here. When we traded for him he wasn’t nearly as good as he is now. He is a loyal and a mature leader and this team would be much worse with a replacement-level player.

Despite what the plebs will lead you to believe, he earns his contract. It’s all about perspective.

Because he has one good game out of every four games ? Admittedly outstanding performance last night but If he played liked last night every night we wouldn’t be on the outside looking in

I am.

He’s just too goddamned inconsistent. He was trash tonight.

Personally I’d prefer a player that is just consistently good, and not spectacular in some and trash in others.
