    Do you seriously think the Rockets would ship out one of their best prospects just because they got a potentially better one? Wouldn't happen, Sengun would just ride pine and be the backup. He can't force his way out like Harden, he has no clout, he's not actually a star player to anybody except you guys yet. It's a while yet before he's out of the rookie contract cycle, he'll be restricted before he's got the opportunity to just go where he wants.

    I said it once and i'll say it again. I just shared those 2 players' stats and i'm not responsible for the conclusions you draw out of it.

    And yes, he'll force his way out at the end of the year 4 if the Rockets bench him. I didn't think i need to explain that.

    Yeah, that's not the big point you think it is tbh. There's a reason Sengun wasn't even in top 5 arguments in his draft, and Wemby is an almost guaranteed #1 pick. The stats you throw out mean next to nothing compared to the potential of a 7'4 guy who moves and plays like a wing. Sorry to burst your bubble, the conclusions YOU'RE drawing are based on an entirely false premise, none of which will have ANY bearing if we draft Wemby. Try not to get too upset if that happens.

    7'4 guy who's afraid of the contact more than i'm afraid of death.

    Right, sure. Let's be honest, the entire world of basketball scouting disagrees with your take. I'll go with the experts tbh.

    Easily our best player with usage.

    He just makes the right choice with the ball more often than anyone else.

    It's not an appreciated stat but I like the PIE stat from NBA.Com. 13+ for Sengun, the highest from the starters.
    I'd like him to get a consistent 12ft shot. He has improved his FT% so it's something he can realistically develop.
    Add some muscle tone to that old man strength he has and there is no stopping him. He already leaves great defenders stuck in cement in the low block.

    I love the chemistry with KMJ. KMJ is our best cutter. I would hate for us to lose him.

    One of the biggest jumps he’s made this season is his dunking. Last season he would try to lay everything in and he’d miss some… this season, he said ima f*****g flush this ****, no more messing around

    He’s getting stronger and more explosive, still not finished on that front.
    When him Jabari and Jalen get grown man strength it’s over

    He did have something like 45 dunks last season.

    Facts!! Same with all of the young guys bc they won’t get their full man strength until like 28ish. Scary hours!

    Yeah he did have his moments, but not like this tho. He’s out here trying poster people like he’s Amare Stoudemire.
