While there were also other reasons why the Rockets lost to the Warriors, Green's subpar performance was the easy scapegoat. But just as the Los Angeles Lakers refused to lose trust in Kobe after his airball party in Game 5 of the "Lake Show's" playoff series against the Utah Jazz, Lou Will says the Rockets should keep the faith in Jalen.

Jalen Green had a horrible NBA Playoffs first-round series against the Warriors, which could lead to the Rockets trading him this offseason.

Houston Rockets guard Jalen Green was brutally honest about how he felt he played during his team's seven-game first-round playoff series loss to the Golden State Warriors, as noted to reporters. In Game 2, Green scored 38 points on 13-of-25 shooting to lead Houston to a 109-94 win over the Warriors.
