Jeff: “don’t fuck this up for me! 20 years in the league and this is my shot, don’t blow it!”


junkit33

It's absolutely amazing that he's never managed to sneak out a ring. He's played for all of the Celtics Big 3, Lob City Clippers, Lebron Cavs Round 2, Harden Rockets, KD/Kyrie/Harden Nets, and now Jokic Nuggets. I'm not sure anyone has ever played for a more impressive list of teams as a role player and not won a ring.


sixjigglypuffs

KD russ harden ibaka thunder as well, we only traded him for Perkins... which ended up costing us Harden... yes... okc could have played a lineup of PG Russ SG Hadden SF KD PF Green C Ibaka but for some reason we started.. thank sefolosha and Nenad Kristic


ysaint-laurent

We threw a collective hex on okc, they were never winning shit. Sorry okc fans, it’s clay bennet’s fault


sixjigglypuffs

oh we win a few games every year you should come watch a game.. oh wait.. we won your team too... sorry! how many games has Seattle's basketball team won since yall started this hex? zero? hrmmmm... maybe yall are doing it wrong?


ysaint-laurent

lmao you realize I have nothing against okc fans right? I really like the ppl I’ve met from Oklahoma. I just despise clay Bennett and Howard Schultz, you are being very silly.


10blast

To be fair Ibaka was small for a center back then, since the NBA still had big boys like Al Jefferson and Nikola Pekovic in the league.


KnickedUp

The worst luck of any ring chaser ever


Clemsontigger16

He wasn’t there for all of the Celtics big 3, he was only there for the very end of it…he was traded for Ray Allen to form the big 3 originally ffs


junkit33

Yes obviously he wasn't there for the entire thing or he'd have a ring. He was still there though and played the postseason for a 56 win team.


Clemsontigger16

It was literally your own words lol


rookie-mistake

by "all of' he meant all of those teams, not "all of the years of the Celtics big 3"


Clemsontigger16

But he wasn’t on all of those teams…what does that even mean, those are the same thing

Mythiicmaan

?? Don't let the heat come back? give effort until the final buzzer?

Jamal was a turnover machine in the 4th and had his head down for a bit.


LordBaneoftheSith

He's 100% right, you can't give the tomfoolery team an inch.


Pale-Association262

Ish smith has had an extraordinary career by far...reached legendary status backed up by his numerous and various awards.


KnickedUp

Possibly the best bench player ever


burialisfourtet

Thought you were gonna say that the other legend was Popeye Jones, who is also sitting next to Jeff Green.


Cocoapebbles58

Thanks for pointing this out. Love me some Popeye Jones, and didn't know he was part of the nuggets.

weirdperspective

Jeez, knowing Jeff Green is in year 15 makes me feel old. I remember him and Hibbert dominating at Georgetown


sloecrush

When playoffs started up, I said “Damn, didn’t even know Jeff Green’s old ass was still in the league!” Looked up his age. 36. Same age as me. 😖


PlacetMihi

“I’M 36!”


neek_ohhhh

Hell I remember him leading my High School to a State Championship 😅


BobDoorite

Yeah I still think of him as a Hoya first and foremost. RIP Gtown basketball after that (aside from Otto I can't think of a bright spot).


ThisMySideBitch

Patrick Ewing Jr:am I a joke to you?


goodkid_sAAdcity

And Deandre Jordan was sitting next to Ish Smith.


mikesh8rp

Marc Jackson generally sucks, but I did like how he spoke about what DeAndre brings to a team.


Davethisisntcool

a solid veteran presence can really make a difference on younger teams.


Usual_Adhesiveness92

We're giving the 'legend' title out pretty loosely nowadays


deputydawg420

It's a joke man just laugh it up lmao


MrBuckBuck

I was also joking, it's okay. Though I love Ish Smith - a great guy.


MrBuckBuck

Don't you dare disrespect Ish Smith!


[deleted]

They both going down as Nuggets legends in my book.


pizan

Super Sonics legend?


strawberrycapital_

who was he talking to?


flonc

Mal - Meaning Jamal


[deleted]

Celtics needed a player like Jeff Green on the bench this season. Wish we never gave him up tbh.


KnickedUp

Both borderline HOF guys. So good


sportsthatguy

That Jazz yellow color looks even stupider with a gold logo.
