    @hakeem94 believes Sengun is God, not a god, but God with the capital G. His perfection is boundless. Anyone hints that he needs to improve on anything is blasphemy. How can you improve a perfect being?

    KPJ sucks. One day you'll realize that. Garbage. Let's root for Sengun

    Sengun is our franchise player. He's probably never going to be great on defense but you can build a high post around him

    Also, Sengun will end up being a much better shooter than Westbrook, and Sengun's basketball IQ is much higher than Westbrook's.

    And he's already developing his 3. Westbrook isn't even comparable. He plays for himself. Alpi wants to win

    It's also why made a point to call out 8as nice as he could) a loser in KPJ.

    Come on bro lol. He’s not good people at all. He brings up race all the time, he just used Kobe’s death to make a point, he talked **** about DD’s weight, and he made fun of Silas losing his dad. There’s no way he’s good people

    That is a bottom of the barrel human. JFC to throw in Kobe and his daughter when it has NOTHING to do with the discussion is utterly disgusting. One thing to bark and scream about player stats and styles and point the meaningless finger and try to make a case for your favorite player among what is supposed to be your favorite team. Each day I log on ready to be surprised by these people, but this is ... different - and everyone just turns a blind eye.

    Anyone have any good earthquake jokes since nothing is off limits anymore? SMH.

    my time on this board is so much more enjoyable since I have ignored Hakeem94 and King1. I don’t like ignoring folks, but when they are such obvious trolls it needs to be done.

    Yeah man it’s crazy. Like I said in my other post, he gets away with it bc he obsesses over Sengun 24/7. I criticized Sengun and said “**** him” as in idc about him over the team and people jumped all over me like I committed a crime. They don’t do that to @hakeem94 when he says some really offensive personal things

    A lot of us have that poster on block for a while. He/she used to be a chill poster until harden left and sengun came, became unhinged. I would consider him/her the number 1 sengunatics.

    did you forgot to take your 7th booster vax? or its the 8th now? excuse my scientific ignorance LOL

    anyway i never hear you urging for jalen green to add back to the basket game or work on his hook shots? how come? is he a perfect being or you just think he doesn't need hook shots and back to the basket game?

    or perhaps he has more important stuff to practice and work on? LOL

    The other stuff aside, this is actually an interesting one.

    I see people saying Sengun should add 3-point range and jump shots to his game.

    I show data that shows that Sengun is the best jump shooter on the team. Crickets from the same people who say he has no jump shot.

    On the other hand, people don't really point out the obvious flaws in Jalen's game. Jalen is a far worse defender than Alpi, and he doesn't have a back to the basket game. Kobe had a back to the basket game - he worked with Hakeem on it. I guess we would be happy if Jalen could just get the other stuff consistently right first.

    And expectations on the franchise player - Alperen Sengun - are higher than on his scorer sidekick. That's understandable.

    Those people are complicit only because it aligns with their basketball views. The divide is too wide to have a healthy debate with this player unfortunately.

    It sucks to try and catch up on context so I dont blurt out dumb sht (some may argue that happens even without catching up on context lol) but the common denominator in society is that these types of people enjoy each others nastiness. Edgelords who try to outdo one another with the most shocking BS imaginable.
