Silas: “If it’s KPJ, 3 fouls? no problem ”

 

KPJ plays defense. Sengun does not

 

Sengun should have play better defense we got ass blasted by 20 pts today, oh wait man didn't even play.

It's like defense was a team effort last I checked.

 

bro what the hell is this? lmao!

 

It was @Os Trigonum idea lol....

 

lol you can't believe this? Everytime I check the guy KPJ is guarding is baking having a career day.

 

@Salvy created, @sirjesse inspired, @Os Trigonum approved.

I call it, the almost a masterpiece.

 

Hey hey hey! This all started with me asking you to create a gif of spidey removing his mask and Silas playing the part

 

I want to say something profound but this game was just bad. Sengun’s sweater was nice though.

thank you coach Silas for staying focused on your mission. Big picture as always.

 

If Sengun does not play defense, how could he get 3 fouls in short time? Do you know what you are saying? Lol. It makes no sense.

 

rocketchamp just can’t let Sengun go even he did not play the game. Haters gonna hate.

 

Actually guards kill us every game. Quickley only averages 11 but had 27, Luka 35, Jaylen Brown 39, Lavine 22, Wagner 25. If KPJ plays better defense it doesnt show that much.

 

Lol, so did you see how many easy transition buckets KPJ allowed because he wasn't coming back on Defense?

Or he was too gassed to follow his man and waived it off?

It is the normal every play Defense and not when he is on ball defending some assignment.

 

I am done with this team for the season. They’re not fun to watch most nights.

 

Right... they look like they all just show up and play Street ball.

 

this is true . . . give credit where credit is due. sirjesse is like the Alperen Sengun of good ideas

 

"Excuse me ref can I transfer fouls to another player? Josh get over here."

 

This was another dull, 20-point loss.

Somewhere in the middle of the third quarter, as we continued to miss from the 3-point line, KPJ (or Eason or Green or whoever) continued to drive the ball at less than full speed into no man's land. The driver didn't want to shoot over the teeth of the defense (who can blame them), the guys on the wing didn't want to shoot, and the result was a handful of live ball turnovers/Garuba hoisting up shots.

The moral for our young team: if you don't play with energy in your step in the second half, you're going to get killed.

Then on offense, the Knicks just put guys like Randal in places they could manhandle defenders. Very workmanlike, professional win by the Knicks.

Let's move on, please.

 

Do you watch the game? Most teams force a switch on to Sengun with their quickest guard. Sengun's the player they seek out every game, not KPJ
