Message: [QUOTE="jayteeman, post: 2982951, member: 6737"] I am so sick and tired of this Jalen bashing. The mob seems to be convinced Jalen is done, doesn't care. This is the same mob that thought Hurley was the second coming....and he may be, but it only takes about 4 or 5 games to see another lynch mob forming against him as well. How about maybe there is a good reason for Jalen's performance that the mob just hasn't figured out yet. Do you actually think Bazz or Kemba or Gordon would perform at the same level with this team?....ie....with no front court?....think of the front court those guys had. It is absolutely not fair with the hand Jalen was dealt when the past guards played on top 20 teams and traditional starting five caliber players at every position. They didn't have to experience this amount of team injuries, players leaving, the influx of transfers to fill holes, different coaches and styles. I commend Jalen for sticking it out for four years, and he has played a ton of minutes over those years and does not deserve this. He has been challenged to save this team where I don't think any of his predecessors might be able to do as well given the same circumstances. [/QUOTE]
