    If the management wants to employ Sengun in long term, someone has to advise them to use Bucks' pick to draft A.Bona of UCLA.

    Bona is a 6'10", 7'4" wing span PF and played together with Sengun few years. Will be a perfect back-up to Jabari/Wemby and will be good cutting partner to Sengun from the day 1.

    My favorite is when Sengun goes for a dunk and doesn't quite make it. Then he looks around for a foul like brobro we're calling a foul on those scrawny legs. Mark Williams can actually dunk, just like Bruno Fernando both are better than Sengun.

    Webber was not low IQ. He was weak-minded. He crumpled under pressure. That's how he failed Michigan and how he could not win at Sacramento (together with the magnificent effort of the referees to ensure the Lakers' win). The Kings' offense could not be run by low IQ players.

    I can't believe someone actually suggested that Webber was a low IQ player. He literally paved the way for guys like Jokic and Sengun as a playmaking big with savy passing skills.


    Ya you are right. Same applies for Harden. Extremely high bball IQ. Folds under pressure in the playoffs.

    Next to Peja,Divac,Hedo,Doug Christie,... Webber looked like very low IQ player.
    You call it weak-minded. OK, Webber was a weak-minded player.

    He did not look low IQ compared to those guys.

    I fret those automatic deductions that players with great numbers must be leaders or must be clutch players.

    I do not think the world works like that.

    There is a reason why Webber is never mentioned when people talk about Duncan, KG, Nowitzki, even Barkley n Malone.

    He is a good looking guy.

    What kills me about this is that his defensive numbers are way better than KPJ and Jalens. I mean Jalen has some of the worst defensive numbers in the league but you hear way more about Senguns defense and thats by design. Its how the haters are controlling the "Alperen is the best player" talk. Ignore everything bad in KPJ's game and pay attention anything bad about Sengun even though he's one of the most efficient players in the NBA. Its just ridiculous how this fans base treats him. We dont deserve Sengun. Trade him and you fools can slobber all over KPJ while losing. You can just be losers for the next 10 years.

    I guess you don't know the difference between low IQ and weak-minded. There are plenty of high IQ players who are mentally weak. Ben Simmons comes to mind.

    Again, low IQ players wouldn't be able to run the KIngs offense, let alone being the hub of it. Webber had been doing what Sengun does before Sengun was born. Let's pray that Sengun will have a coach who knows how to use his talent.

    I did not want to involve. Long story short, i accepted your idea. If you want to describe weak-minded, I accept. I have no power for fruitless argument. Too old for that ones. You won. He is not low IQ, he is weak minded.

    The follow up question is what is weak minded?

    I mean if you go on the street you meet more than a dozen people who are 'regularly minded' not tough and not weak.

    I saw Webber as a normal dude with immense basketball talent.

    Simmons is a spoiled brat IMO. Call him what you will but he has wasted a lot of his god given talent.

    Not everybody is Jordan or Kobe, a lot of grey areas to be covered.
