    LOL and before the game you had Mrs Moist dropping dumb ass self tweets about Sengun owning Embiid and when you run the numbers you notice that Embiid dropped 39 on his head in the first matchup and Sengun was a nothing. Same thing last night. You want a moral victory based on a few plays WHOOPIE go eat a cookie. Not only was Embiid owning the paint, but Harden was LOOKING for Sengun on defense. All you MFers keep whatabouting all over the place in your undying love for thise guy so quick to trash everyone around him and then hold him up as some infallible player. Funny now poor, poor Sengun cant get any support from the bricklayers, but when it was KPJ out there it was a whole different vibe when it actually was the same exact thing! Too funny.

    LOL you just didnt like the message of my metaphor, it 100% and undeniably exposed what you believe about basketball as a fraud and as a self contradictory unfounded belief, so to deflect and avoid acknowledging it you started a little drama and you accuse the opponent of a suspect behavior as if he is doing something contrary to the rules of the forum, you started acting weird as if a death is some tabooo that should never be mentioned and people will talk here about anything all the times...

    its ok as long as one is respectful we all gonna die anyway one day...death is closer to us than life itself...its always just a minute away from us...people love to think its far away, it happens only to other people, but anyone of us may die at any given moment...and this is why its even more fascinating to me for people to stick to some arbitrary and fake rules of basketball and hold them sacred

    @hakeem94 I share your enthusiasm for Alpi, but please, for the love of what's holy, tone it down sometimes.

    You are an idiot, and one of the worst posters on this board. Fortunately, I have had you on ignore for a very long time already. Sometimes I make the mistake of looking, and every time it gets confirmed that you are THE village idiot.

    lol buddy thank you...btw I am not even debating Sengun here I am indifferent towards Alpi, yes I love him he is a nice fun person, he plays for my team, but I am strictly discussing basketball principles here, and my view of them, it just happened Alperen Sengun sticks to quite a number of these. Perhaps that's why I like his game. :)

    Ha, the kid is chickening out, because he has nothing. Not surprising.

    No one expects a 20 year old Sengun to stop Embiid. Embiid leads the league in scoring tell me one center in the league that can stop him. Heck he dropped 45 on Jokic. So what's your point? It's unrealistic. But as he gets stronger he will improve on his post defense. Literally he was the least of our problems last night. Harden puts everyone in bad pick and rolls but it's not like harden was scoring on Sengun. Legitimately we just broke down on defense and he was wide open..

    Jalen and Jabari also combined to shoot 9-34. If they shoot a similar percentage as Sengun, we win.

    Listen here pal, it's possible to have a conversation without acting like a twat. I showed you no disrespect. Nothing I said was even remotely cultish, it's a fact of basketball AND LIFE that guys that can shoot from the perimeter get defended differently than guys who can't, and that difference makes it easier to drive.

    Same way guys sag off Westbrook and Simmons, because they can drive but can't/won't shoot.

    I love Sengun but he can't drive whenever he wants. You can post clips of successful drives, I'm not knocking his dribble drive, he's very good at it. He'd be even better if opponents respected his three ball. He'd have better opportunities to attack the defense on closeouts, rotations, etc. Any coach would tell you the same thing, I don't care what other conclusions you've drawn in the depths of your Turkish homoerotic fantasies, ok guy?

    Are you operating from the premise that Sengun's game is already so amazing that he shouldn't improve upon his weaknesses?

    I can't imagine thinking that about any player, ever

    You’ve got some serious issues making a statement like that about Kobe and his daughter. We all have our opinions, but you’ve shown many times that you’re a terrible person. You need therapy big time. Only reason why you get away with this is bc you’re a SOF, and his fans love the fact you spam posts about him daily

    I don't know about others. I'm not saying that Sengun should shoot more or whatever. I've always said that he needs to have an outside shot. The coach IMO should not discourage him from shooting when he is open. That's just not good developmental coaching. It would have been correct if you tell a guy like Westbrook to stop shooting 3s. Guys like Westbrook are established players. Sengun is not. He is still learning.

    It has nothing to do with making excuses for Sengun. You are reading everything with a pair of colored glasses.

    @hakeem94 is good people. Very intelligent. He's just messing around. He's an Alpi fan like us. Hood advice though. Definitely don't want to see him banned
