    Enough is enough, the Commissioner needs to crack down on these SOF players spreading disinformation when he is NOT the Head Honcho.

    And then he’ll be holding us back with bad defense. Getting cooked on the perimeter and bodied down low. You’re delusional of you think he’ll be better than Wemby. We draft him, Sengun would be numbered. I’m okay with riding it out bc he’s talented

    I see no reason why it couldn't be a long term line up if Sengun keeps improving and Wemby becomes what he's projected to become. An unstoppable 7'4 dude who blocks everything in sight but can hit a fadeaway 3 and an unstoppable post savant with incredible awareness and IQ, how is that not a top frontcourt in the league?

    Just not realistic man. Not gonna be able to afford all these guys in the future. Also, we’re gonna end up trading some to acquire a veteran star. I would like to keep ‘em all, but it won’t happen

    Plenty of teams with more than one max player, and I don't think either Sengun or Smith will be earning a full max in all honesty. You're creating issues that don't even exist yet, that's not realism, it's blind speculation.

    Now this is real disrespectful to WOFs and SHOFs, and we need @Os Trigonum to check if your account is hacked by SOFs...

    In the meantime

    I’ve just seen it too many times. I’m just saying that we can’t get attached to all of these players. This roster is gonna look way different soon

    It seems to me, they often do that at the beginning of a game with some degree of success. Then after Sengun is subbed out, they stopped and never come back to it again even after Sengun gets back on the floor.

    If NBA players think Sengun is going to be a Star, why is Silas and some of Rocket’s fan are dumbfounded?

    “Me personally, I think they need to build around number 28 (Sengun), Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards told Rockets Wire after playing against Houston on Sunday. “Jalen (Green) and KPJ (Kevin Porter Jr.) are franchise players also, but that dude is something serious. We had to game plan for him.”

    “He has been getting better and better,” said Gobert, a fellow European big man who watched Sengun play internationally before coming to the NBA. “I think he is very unique in the way that he plays. The way that he is finishing. Last year he was turning the ball over more, but this year he has gotten a lot better.”


    “I think he’s really talented,” reigning NBA MVP Nikola Jokic said earlier this year. “Maybe this is going to sound weird, but I think they need to play a little bit more through him. This guy has the talent. He can pass the ball, He can post up, and he has the touch around the rim. You can see some different moves that he’s made.”

    We'll have all of them for at least until the end of their second contract, unless we choose to move on from them because of lack of talent. Unless one of them breaks out into an MVP season then none of them can make that much for some while yet. Like I say, you're building mountains out of hypothetical mole hills.

    When other teams are game planning against your 2nd year player, you know you got something special... too bad Silas don't seem to see it.

    MORE ISOS, MORE BAD SHOTS!

    If you think Sengun is gonna get bodied down low what do you think will happen to Wemby? Dude is a stick. Probably break in half and have a career ending injury. Whoever drafts Wemby is enter off playing him as a 3.

    Probably one of the worst coaches in NBA history.

    I don’t know who Danielle is but that is exactly what I’ve been thinking about Sengun and who he kind of should mirror his game around. Anything close to what Sabonis does for the Kings would be just great and would elevate the play of anyone on the floor with him. Remember that Sengun is barely 20 years old. Still a lot of learning and improvement but the skills are there.
