    He's a much more willing passer as well now too. His ability to get to the basket would make him a great point he just needed to pass more. Im not attacking KPJ but KPJ has to dribble a lot more to get to the rim and Josh just steamrolls whoever is in front of him.

    CF's doesnt understand how rookies and young players work at all. They labeled Jalen a bust 1 month in and said House was better than KJ because of age lol

    KPJ was an elite finisher his first 2 seasons, he's been terrible at it this season. That has to be injury, right? Players don't drop 20% in one season for no reason

    Seriously, if foul trouble is the only gripe you have about toddler Sengun, you can have it.. I dont get why people get so hung up on his fouls.. Sengun is too smart to not get it.. Sengun still adjusting to how soft the NBA is. he will be fine.

    I actually thought their defense looked pretty good most times but their shooting sucked. We started out hot from 3, then cooled off. Their ball pressure seemed to mess us up a bit, but I guess we handled it ok. Them doubling Sengun was kind of neat to see, but him getting into foul trouble wasn’t.

    It was the spacing with Theis but when I say that people are gonna swear im just saying it because I am a SOF lol Josh also struggled before we took Theis out of the starting lineup. Im looking forward to seeing what Jalen can do with Theis out of there.

    JC is shooting around 44% from 3 on the season. (Pleasantly surprised!)

    He may be my favorite rookie. I need JG to get his shooting up around there too, then we might have something.

    Christopher is out playing Cade and it’s not even close. Honestly, if the Coach had guts he would start Christopher at PG and Porter at SF and start Sengun at Power Forward. Christopher is the real deal and Green needs to get going and play. Sengun needs to play at least 28 minutes. RELEASE SENGUN!
