    Be ready for a lot of goal post moving, walking back past comments, but most of all: PURE, BEAUTIFUL SILENCE...

    Alperen Sengun was a teenager 6 months ago. What he is doing is absolutely insane.

    Alperen Sengun is inevitable.

    Corey Brewer and Luis Scola had some decent games this last week. I wonder if either will ever have a 40 point game or triple double again at some point. Or is this their prime and they have both plateaued?

    Well it's obvious at this point. Only our resident village idiot in Bobby doesn't see it. KPJ should never put on a Rockets jersey again. Just throw all his stuff in the street that way nobody gets hit by food when he throws his tantrum and cries

    We lucked out acquiring him. He's a really special player. I'd love to get him extended early. Players are going to want to play with him.

    tanking is addictive... the drug addict always finds a new reason to take his drug again... it may be injury, change in rules or whatever...every new draft is unique and theres this one guy that could fit very well with jalen green or sengun or whatever...i hope Sengun gets traded from this sespit

    If we trade Sengun I won't go to another game. I have put up with this terrible franchise for far too long. Having to suffer through watching KPJ should give us free tickets for the rest of our lives. We have a franchise player in Sengun and cap space. Get rid of homeless Harden in KPJ and build the offense around Sengun. Oh, and fire Silas immediately

    Amazing what happens when you run the offense through him and not that brain dead idiot KPJ.

    We have to run the offense like Denver does with Jokic. Sengun is a rare Center with his vision and playmaking and it needs to be utilized.

    Next year with Gordon and hopefully KPJ gone, adding one more top 5 pick, a max FA (FVV) a consolidation trade for a semi star (LaVine, Myles Turner) and improvement from our young guys and we are ready to compete for the playoffs.

    we didnt run our offense through him...we've just let him touch it occasionally like everybody else....perhaps more than some other players but no way, this is not it...this is not running the offense through sengun...

    I think he's getting the offense initiated. Obviously Silas is worthless but he's thriving right now. That's about the best we can do a ith this roster. He got Jalen and Smith good looks but they didn't knock them down. I cringe at the possibility of KPJ coming back. Wish they would just cut that scrub.

    Sengun and KJ are by far our best players right now

    Alpi's assists went to almost everybody, except for Green in this game. Wiz were playing Green pretty close, true, and he was an effective decoy at times. But Green and the team need to figure out routes to get him open for Sengun's passes. I mean, he's supposedly a bucket, he and the team need to work harder to avail him to Sengun, like KJM, Bari, etc do...

    KPJ is actually the best shooter on our team. If he would just play within new system and share more he could be useful. Sengun could get him some wide open looks
