    Do assists mean anything to you? How about assists to turnover ratio? Sengun makes our "team" better.

    Things ppl ALSO didn't agree with me on here:

    -Dillon Brooks being a great signing
    -Stone's job being secured. Done a great job so far
    -FVV being a great culture signing
    -The team being in BETTER shape after the KPJ debacle.

    This team goes as far as Jalen & Jabari take them. Sengun's a complimentary piece. But we'll see once the season pans out Jalen & Jabari truly blossom. Kudos to Sengun for having a good 10 game stretch

    I’m not talking about Clutchfans. People that get paid to know more than you know Alp is the best player on this team. He is the catalyst.
    You can’t accept that because of your biases. That’s on you.
    But literally nothing backs up your claim.

    That's a narrative that won't hold up. Sengun had a solid stretch the first 10 games, but Jalen & Jabari are now coming into their own. Once Jalen gets acclimated, this is HIS team. If Jalen plays well we usually blow teams out. He is our cornerstone

    Dude sat around waiting for Alpe to have a "bad" game so he could come out from hiding under his bed lol

    False. He’s been the best young player for 3 seasons. And I’m a huge Green fan.
    Sorry bud, you’re just wrong and the more you dig in the funnier it gets

    He's played the same amount of years as Sengun. Why isn't he acclimated?

    They are both the same age, and will both get better, but it's silly to say when they do the Rockets will be Jalen's team. When it comes to overall strengths I'd pick Sengun. It's a team sport, and everybody plays a big part when we win or lose.

    Even on a bad day Sengun usually has more assists, and always has more rebounds than Jalen. His assist to turnover ratio is better, and he's better on defense. His 3 PT shooting is just as good and his FG% is higher. Jalen is better at free throws. I'll give him that.

    It’s Ime’s team. We don’t have to have 1 Alpha Dog in our pack. We can have all alpha dogs that dominate the NBA pack. Sengun, Green, Jabari, and Amen are all core players in the future. Dillon and FVV are really good place holders that can pay great dividends this year and next.

    The best young player for 3 years? Looool. Nah you're definitely on something very illegal. The Sengun bias here is unmatched

    Who was most adamant about creating trade scenarios involving Sixgun?

    I mean, it’s for sure two seasons and advanced metrics have it at 3.
    We know you don’t like him but facts are facts

    Advanced metrics can be used to create false narratives, like Sengun's the best players lol. He's playing the best through 10 games.

    Hopefully you are joking. Capela would be a decent backup for Sengun.
