    He looks quicker, more decisive, and confident
    I hope it transfers into training camp and Ime uses him as the offensive decision-maker

    Sengun makes better passes falling out of bounds with 2 defenders on him than most can when they're wide open.

    I don’t get it. Sengun is a versatile young player with room to grow.He fits in with the group. I just don’t get the negativity . It’s exciting when he does well!

    He says he’s nice on the post and got a nice bag with the ball. Very complimentary., No negative comments at all. He respects him.

    He looks to have really transformed his body. Much quicker and stronger more developed upper body. He is going to be a monster with our upgraded coaching staff. It is torture waiting for the NBA season to get going.

    Older tweet, but that was from the only period he was used somewhat appropriately, and given some freedom to cook (coincided with KPJ being absent, if I remember correctly).

    The ball should be in the hands of the one who initiates / creates the offense. Don't worry I suspect your boy Jalen will be on the receiving end of a majority of the dimes and will likely continue to lead the team in scoring.

    So Murray is the one who initiates and created the most offense?

    I don't think you understand the point I was making here. The point is even a all time great offensive playamking big isn't leading his team in time of possession. It's very hard for a big to lead a team in dominating possession time. Very hard. If there was one big in the NBA to do it, it would be Jokic.


    I hope Jalen gets a lot more easier looks too similar to all the easy looks Green gave to Sengun last season. Because you'd think from the way people discuss this Sengun benefits Green more than Green benefits Sengun but that doesn't jibe analytically when you see how they perform when the other is on the bench and just the mere fact of how many more assists there are from Green to Sengun than Sengun to Green. Also the fact there are significantly fewer situations where Green will be open because Sengun has the ball than Sengun will be open because Green has the ball.
