    Jalen & Vanvleet already getting it in. My question is where is our franchise player Alperen Sengun? As the leader of the team, why isn't he out there?

    Probably just not filming his workouts for internet points.

    Why isn't Tari there? Or Jabari? Or Patrick Mahomes? Where's Jock!? Dudes must be just sitting on their ass somewhere, right?

    He will play for Turkish National Team in Olympic games qualification soon. So his season would start earlier than anyone in this team. He will be ready more than anyone when NBA season starts. Now u got your answer, desperate Sengun hater.

    Neither one of the names you mentioned are the "Franchise Player" of this team (according to this thread). Is it not fair to question where Sengun is? He certainly needs the conditioning if he's going to lead this organization to a championship alone

    Franchise player doesn’t need to work, he’s still waiting on these other plebs to get on his level.

    Aren't you too ignorant to be slinging **** Alpi's way?
    "Turkey men's national basketball team" ring any bells? (If it does, do you salivate?)
    Watch him dominate everybody in August.

    So unless you see a video of it on the internet, you assume it didn't happen? Surely there is no need for you to be so dense

    FVV's feet are much faster than Jalen's.

    Jalen would easily win a 100m sprint, but FVV is quicker on the first few steps (and probably in the head).

    Lowe is very high on our young talent but says the last few years they were unwatchable due to pure unaldutered chaos. More proof Silas absolutely sucked.

    Our (alleged) franchise player doesn't even need to work? So he's just entitled to a position on the court? Udoka said no handouts

    Unadulterated chaos is your star player flashing guns on social media, after apologizing. Where is the outcry for leadership by the Grizzlies coach? Lowe gets paid to spew narratives that don't add up. Silas shouldn't be a scapegoat for a tanking team

    They started off drafting Green and Bari and those two are really raw players, very raw.

    That in itself was a risk (maybe worth paying) but at that time everyone was either hyping them up or just digging a hole to hide themselves.

    To continue to draft raw players like Amen and Whitmore, lol, I am jealous of the audacity and bravado.

    Whenever in chill out with this, y’all get me started. Only way I’ll be miserable is if this team sucks again

    Lowe is just another talking head with an undeserving ego. When he gets together with Givony its a masterclass on shittting all over the Rockets. I know Sengun, Eason and Jabari are "his guys" due to the stats arguments he loves so dear so watching him snake his way through the Sengun being a defensive liability take was --- interesting.
