The fact you actually brought up they have similar percentages at three says you don't think the gap in their shooting abilities is immense. Ya dude volume and type of attempts matter: Ask yourself this: Scrub to 5:58, do you ever see Sengun being the level of scorer where he's a safety blanket like Green is when the half court offense can't generate a good look and instinctively just dump the ball to him with seconds left asking him to do some last second magic? I remember someone posted here that Green leads the league in shot attempts from a pass from a teammate with less than 5 seconds left(the safety blanket attempt basically). Is the team looking at Sengun as that type of player?
It's debatable who could be the better volume scorer at this point, no disagreement from me. But based on last year Sengun is not a better shooter than Green right now. Sengun also has the more polished offensive game but Green has physical gifts that will likely make it easier for him to read stardom than Sengun.
Why would you artificially only count something outside a certain distance? 2 points = 2 points Green is a better FT shooter, though. That's one thing I hope Alpi will improve. Big men often struggle with that, but it seems like a focus issue to me.
Is Sengun asked to take the type of shot attempts Green does here at 5:58? I have to find the stat someone posted but Green leads the NBA in shot attempts from a pass within the final 5 seconds of the shot clock as in a teammate dumps him the ball with seconds left because they couldn't create a shot.
look, man. You’re a bit nuts. Didn’t you say before that Green was better than Bane, and Mem would like to trade them for each other? Green is better than everyone if we listen to you… Fact is he’s very inconsequential player, may amount to something because has talent, but may end-up meh… that’s what it is in "sane wоrid". keep posting your "bizzarro world" takes, but you should now that you come across a bit off mentally.
Is Bane at a level of player where I say another player is better or has a much better ceiling that then you have to assume that I think said player is better than everyone? You hold Bane in that high of a regard or is this your attempt at beating up a strawman. I will bring up when Green is a better player or has a much higher ceiling based on someone saying they believe a less talented player is better. That's it. So far I said he's better than Bane and Jabari. Is that offensive to you? Is it offensive if I say that Green has more value to NBA GMs than KJ Martin? Al you can do is call me crazy. You can't actually discuss basketball.
What level of player can I say Green is better than or is more talented than where you won't get offended? Would you be offended if I say Green is better than Quintin Grimes?
Green last year was a better FT shooter, a better mid range shooter, the better 3 point shooter when open (4-6 ft), the better 3 point shooter when wide open (6 ft+). He was the better shooter last year.
You have to realize that this guy legitimately believes that Jalen Green is Kobe Bryant, but better. You're supposed to just laugh, not take him seriously.
No doubt that Green is the better jump shooter and free throw shooter. Yet, Sengun's true shooting percentage was much higher.
Looking at Green and not seeing his ceiling you have to be blind. Him and Jabari both have top5 players ceiling. Sengun is great too especially right now but his ceiling is more like a Pau Gasol (which is still all-time)
I love Sengun as anyone but i am not blind, the reason he stood out the most is because he is he has the most strength from our crop of young players. He is the only one not getting bullied from the start
Part of the reason. Also he has legitimate multiple season pro experience before the NBA. Sengun when he's in the paint is very calm and composed. His footwork is methodical. Pro experience in Europe before the NBA really helped him with that composure.
Obviously anything close to the basket. That's not atypical either, big guys are usually better closer to the basket while guards are better from farther away. Not sure what the argument is.
That's what I'm trying to figure out. You seem to be making an issue out of me calling Green the better shooter so I'm trying to figure out what you think of when you hear the word shooter. Shaq was amazing in the paint but I'd never call him a better shooter than Kobe.
