    That me be the dumbest response I’ve ever seen. Boban is a mascot and does not count. Sengun is a short center who is nowhere close to 7 feet tall. Jock averages a weak 4 rebounds a game and less than 1 block a game and is below 7 feet. Jabrari is a toothpick.

    Biggest problem with this franchise at the moment is SOF's are so insecure and sensitive
    towards any big man joining the team. That player will always be a threat to Sengun
    minutes.

    Whether they be PF or Center. Some front office brass hold this mentality as well.
    More than you know. Oh you can have backup centers....but they have to be bottom of the
    barrel backups. We mustn't challenge Sengun's development.

    Move Sengun to PF and get a legit big man at center….problem solved.

    Size is not the problem.

    You put Draymond Green, Chuck Hayes or PJ Tucker at PF and we get WAY shorter, and WAY better on defense.

    The problem with our defense is mostly our inexperience at SG-PF-C. Growing pains we can live with, and it seems to me that we are improving.

    Amen and Tari will eventually be nasty on defense too. Patience.

    Exactly, that was the purpose of Brook Lopez.

    So that tells you Udoka, Rockets were trying to find a big man who can both protect the rim
    and shoot 3's. Basically things that Sengun is weakest at.

    I have no evidence; but I suspect Brook Lopez was asking the Rockets for assurances that
    he would start because he was more than guaranteed to be a starter with the Bucks.

    I suspect he flaked on us because he didn't trust what he was being told.

    The biggest problem with this franchise at the moment and in the last 2 years is that they still don't know who their best player is when it's blatantly obvious.
