    the fake is so much better move than fancy dribbles that goes nowhere.....although basically they are the same move...

    That is pure Hakeem right there. Beautiful. How is this kid not getting 30 minutes a game?

    The potential is definitely exciting, but he still has a lot to work on. I think he could be a star in this league in a few years. Him and Green are definitely cornerstones.

    Brunson was eating him, not that good defensively IMO.

    Obviously still not the reason why he is not getting more PT.

    because he would ruin the tank
    remember when harden singlehandedly got rockets in playoffs as soon as he came here in 2012? and he was surrounded by some scrubs...i remember the starting lineup had only one guy that was a starter before and all other were either rookies or sophomores or never starting a full season in their career...

    sengun could have done the same ...obviously the management doesn't want that... they want more top picks

    before yall jump saying sengun couldnt carry like harden ask yourself what would have become of those rockets if harden had played 5 minutes a night sometimes and 12 minutes on most nights and how terribly harden would have looked...

    Sengun is the damn PG. Silas needs to ditch this ass of a 5 out offense tailored toward Harden and give the ball to Sengun and let Jalen work off him with his athleticism.. It seems so easy.. Sengun Passes to Jalen would be crazy. We can lose while Sengun learns the PG position.

    I really hope we dont see this Garbage offense next season.

    THIS...IF YANIS CAN DO IT.... sengun can do it 4 times better...he has solid handles....every single player would be utilized so much better...

    however baring a miracle i expect sengun to play low minutes behind anyone who we draft next year...

    i really hope they trade him because hes a fun player and deserves to play in the normal system with a normal coach and a normal team....

    i hope gsw fools rockets into trading him for kuminga or moody and get themselves a perfect hier to draymond...

    alpi will be beast defensively theres no doubt about it, when he gets on a team where the coaches or the refs wont hold him back.....

    This doesn't surprise me at all. And he is still totally underrated, even by most people on Clutchfans. Remember, he is still one of the youngest players in the NBA. Easily one of the most creative players in the entire league. I tune in because of him. He is a joy to watch. Sengun to Green, I hope we will get to see that develop for years to come. Add Chet, another good rookie, another top pick a year later, and some top free agent, once we no longer have Wall and Wood on the roster...and we can build a dynasty.

    P.S.: I also still believe in Garuba. I do not believe in Wood or KPJ.

    lol his PER was 19 earlier in the year before he started spamming 3s

    dr lucas taught him well just like he never taught anybody to shoot in his entire career

    We already proclaimed him to be Hakeem on Offense.

    I doubt there is a higher honor in Clutch City history, bro.

    He is ready to be next year . But he will have strong competition . Green , Tate , our first rounder ... and maybe kpj if we keep him

    The best thing about his recent play is that he has been playing for longer stretches and no longer looks worn out at the end .

    the short tank thing was not a myth . He is learning to better pace himself and is becoming a better conditioned athlete .

    love to see the 3 get a little better too . Having that just makes things easier
