    Sengun to the bench was always inevitable.

    People shouldn't be butthurt about it and it really isn't a bad thing.

    Its about putting the best units together, not the best players.

    Yes sir!!! Preach! Sick of these clowns acting like Sengun is a superstar that needs touches all game. This shouldn’t even be a big discussion bc he’s not that caliber of player

    He has the highest upside of any player on this team outside of Green.
    You really need to stop, you’re a hater and a liar.

    No he doesn’t lol. He may have the highest upside in Turkey, but that’s about it. I know you’re smarter than this.

    Half court sets, Alp should have touches. He’s the best passer on the team, the best screener on the team and best at producing free throw attempts.
    You have to be dumb to not use that. It only benefits Green, makes his job a lot easier.
    That doesn’t mean only do that, there’s opportunities to run, iso, drive and kick. But to not use the talents of one of your best young players is stupid.

    And if you don’t think he’s one of our best young players and/or supremely talented, I’m sorry but you’re stupid too.

    No, I’m just keeping it real. Y’all are so obsessed with this guy. Don’t even care about the team and what’s best for them

    Apparently you aren’t smart enough.
    His upside is Sabonis/Jokic-lite. That is higher than any upside on this team outside of Green.
    He may never hit his upside, but you don’t limit it because you want to run a bunch of iso with KPJ and Green.

    He’s talented, yes! But he’s a horrible fit with his teams play these days. There are times when he’s useful, I agree. He’s just not this second coming of jokic like y’all want him to be. He’s better off running the second unit, if the game is at a slower pace. Why do they need to cater to all of his needs like he’s some superstar? He’s the only piece that doesn’t fit!

    Apparently not, since Sengun is the only player you care about

    I’m really wondering if you’re gonna still be here if Sengun ends up on another team someday.

    Kiddo? You’re talking like I’m some 17 year old who started watching in 2016. You’ll see soon enough, I’m not worried about that. I’m just wondering if you’ll eat crow or blame everyone else other than Sengun. I’ve been delusional about players I liked before. I thought Terrence Jones was gonna be a special all around player for us, and couldn’t see what it actually was. We’re talking about the weakest link in our starting 5 right now. Crazy lol

    You’re a kid to me.
    Nevertheless, it’s you who’s delusional. This starting 5 isn’t the end game. To try and make those pieces fit at the expense of one of the most talented youngest players in the league is stupid.

    I don't know whom you are arguing with, @cmoak1982, but since it can really only be one of two rather obsessive haters (who at the same time think KPJ is like Harden and has been "efficient" the last three years), I agree with whatever you have been posting.

    Efficiency is a state of mind. If you think you’re efficient, you are. Duh
