Jeff Green is on my all-time most frustrating players list. All the athleticism in the world but just never put the work in.

Jeff Green is on my all-time most frustrating players list. All the athleticism in the world but just never put the work in.

It's not even JUST athleticism with him. He has almost all the tools. Highly skilled. He just rarely shows effort. Has no problem coasting.

 

[clyde the glide]

Chalmers was under appreciated on those heat teams

 

[MVP]

You really think it’s most of the league? I think there’s plenty of guys like that, but I don’t know if it’s the majority. Lots of NBA players who really love playing the game.

I would lean towards the majority are doing it for the money. Can't blame em though. Takes tireless dedication and sacrifice to be great at anything. But especially when you're in that top 1% of your craft.

Draymond green
Im all for Ish talking, hyping yourself up and claiming your stake in the league but damn Its pretty obvious what he is/was ; an important role player on an all time great team. Thats facts that he helped them Be a great team but its also kind of facts that he’s pedestrian level Without two of the greatest shooters of all time to pass to.

Its not like any of the mavs could guard wade

 

[BIG FISH]

They doing the 2015 finals playback on NBA TV today.....and decide to go with game 2 .

Game 1 was the better game. Bron went for an efficient 44. Kyrie was cooking. Steph had a great game. Iggy did his thing on the bench. And in went to OT.

 

[BIG FISH]

They forsure been very selective (aka pro Cavs) with these Cavs-Warriors playbacks lol

 

[HOU$TON]

They playing game 6 later tonight

Finals MVP iggy

 

[JD617]

Game 2 went down to the final possession. And they're playing Game 6 right after.

[frink85]

lol just saw the Bill Russell yawning gif "live". who wouldve known at the time that scene would go on to internet stardom

 

[DCAllAfrican]

You no what? I made a mistake no including Mt Vernon & New Rochelle. since they're pretty in the same area. They're just suburb so yeah they're included, but places like BUFFALO??? Just no, they're barely even America.

Jeff Green is on my all-time most frustrating players list. All the athleticism in the world but just never put the work in.

How can you assume he didn't put the work in?

Just because someone isn't as successful doesn't mean it is because a lack of strong work ethic.

 

[Mark Antony]

Dunno why ya'll brought this to multiple threads but mount vernon may as well be the BX, I could just cross the street and i'm there. Also they gets busy over there too, and not as suburban as people think, that MLK blvd real.

Shout out to this jerk spot

Because he just comes and goes. The inconsistency is annoying, which means he doesn't care. That is all related to work ethic.

 

[B Sox]

I feel like one could "put in the work" and also coast in games.

 

[Cashflow]

Some guys just don't have that motor

 

[buc em]

It's not even JUST athleticism with him. He has almost all the tools. Highly skilled. He just rarely shows effort. Has no problem coasting.

I’ve always thought this about him too but his heart issue made me think a lil differently about it. I do wonder if sometimes he’s a little cautious about overly exerting himself and having something go wrong with his heart. So he kinda just picks and chooses when he gives that effort.

 

[addict4sneakers]

Work ethic/desire aren’t the same thing. And even still that’s totally separate from actual talent.

 

[mr s j king]

Pop's defensive strategy brought out the best in LeBron

 

[DCAllAfrican]

Because he just comes and goes. The inconsistency is annoying, which means he doesn't care. That is all related to work ethic.

Again, not sure how that is a direct correlation to how hard he works but ok.
