Donovan Clingan is the perfect fit for the Houston Rockets.

Clingan and Sengun together is like peanut butter and spaghetti

some of y’all can’t be serious…

 

This post is the perfect match for thread(s) that already exist.

KThxBye

 

Clingan is a non-shooter…I’m not holding my breath with Sengun either

Clingan made 2 threes in his 2 years in college and shot 56% on free throws

y’all want to draft Sengun’s 15 min/game backup with the 3rd pick and hope that one day a frontcourt of a guy that can’t shoot a lick from the outside and hits less than 60% of his free throws will be viable next to a guy who’s a weak shooter and also barely shoots 70% from the line…then a lot of y’all want “I miss jumpers like I’m shooting with my left hand and blindfolded” Amen Thompson to be the starting PG as well

 

You’d have a better argument if you said he was the BPA at pick #3. But instead you say he’s the perfect fit. I doubt this thread goes very far.

 

LoL Clingan wont even get 15 mins with Adams and Jock Landale fighting for playing time.

 

Good Lord, everyone wants to have their opinion as a thread starter instead of searching for existing threads and commenting in there.

 

Why should we be thinking about the Wolves when drafting someone at 3rd overall? The Wolves don’t play 2 non-shooting bigs like you’re advocating for the Rockets to do, and they never would.

no coach is trotting out a Sengun-Clingan frontcourt to annihilate all the spacing on the court

u don’t draft a guy 3rd overall because you’re worried about guarding Jokic, Embiid, Wemby, etc…Wemby is a unicorn, everyone will struggle to contain him…Clingan isn’t gonna be a Wemby stopper

 

I think Clingan will be a really good defensive drop center in this league for a long time. He’s going to be a good passer. His offense might surprise us. And I love the idea of him learning from Steven Adams. But because I don’t think Clingan will ever be able to play with Sengun, even if Sengun learns to space the floor, and because I think Sengun is our best player and key part of our future…and because I don’t think Clingan is necessarily BPA over Sheppard or Castle…I hope we take Sarr, Risacher, Sheppard or Castle. All better fits, all in the conversation for BPA.

Clingan/Bari would be nice though.

 

You've been here since 2002 brother, you're not used to it by now?

 

There's only gonna be one player in the whole league who can stop Wemby. Wemby.

 

I have nothing against drop bigs but Clingan is not a Top 3 pick.......and should not be.....

You select balanced players in the Top 5.....or an otherwordly offensive talent as Durant or Mike.

 

Sengun stopped him during their H2H. Put up 42 on his ass and limited him to an inefficient night.

 

Wemby still has to reach Alpe's efficiency down low and Holmgren and Dirks' efficiency from afar.

It should not be a problem getting his shots up to 37-38% before or around his prime.

 

Got on tonight hoping for another superfluous thread and was not disappointed.

 

Two hottest names right now are Clingan and Carter.
Carter going top 10? Everyone wants to trade up for Clingan?
Should the Rockets take advantage and trade back?
Should the Rockets just take Clingan themselves?


It is lying szn & smokescreen szn.

Agenda pusher #1 might say: who cares about Adams & Landale, they aren’t part of the future. Draft Clingan. We can find shooting in free agency.
Agenda pusher #2 might say: we need shooting in the worst way. We can find a big in free agency.
Ime might say: the hell with all that. Let’s draft the 6’6 defensive guard. Or one of the plethora of 6’7-6’10 forwards.

Spoiler

Agenda pusher #3 might say: Clingan is the new center, Şengün is traded. REPORTED REPORTED REPORTED REPORTED
