    Wemby is a tough match up for anyone and for him. He'll pick up right where he left off once we stop playing the scum. He's our best player.

    Extremely disappointed with him. Need him to bounce back so hard.

    The shots have been there for him. It's not that they're not going to him. Has to hit him. 41% from the field to start the season.
    He brought the energy tonight. Ime was furious he got the 5th foul and still brought him back to the game.

    Rebounds are up. 3-point % is up. Steals are up. Points are down, FG % is down - he missed some shots he normally makes.

    Positive +/-. Positive net rating.

    NOT WORRIED.

    GOOD DAY.

    Good lord what a loser. I've seen a few tweets from that guy and I knew he was a freak but this has to be the worst one.

    I wouldn't consider sengun the franchise player with how he has been playing. Aside from game 1, the other 3 games have been quite lackluster. (1 okay, 2 garbage)
    2nd game in a row he got bench/mins limited

    Bail him out?

    THEY PLAY FOR THE SAME ****ING TEAM. HOLY ****ING ****.

    Good thing Sengun bailed him out his first 3 years. Amirite?

    “I hope Sengun has a good game and Jalen bad so I can say I told you so…”
    “I hope Jalen has a good game and Sengun bad so I can say I told you so…”
    “I hope Fred has a bad game so I can say I told you we should’ve signed Harden…”
    “I hope Dillon has a bad game so I can say I told you he was a terrible signing…”

    Good thing Corey Brewer and Josh Smith were there to bail out Harden.

    Good ****ing lord.

    Ya, it wasn't just Wemby. Sochan schooled him and several others did too if you include rebounds he lost. Just overall two pretty atrocious games by Alpi, though this one was marginally better than the last. He'll bounce back, but he gave his detractors a lot of ammo to start this season.

    Brooks did a great job on Wemby tonight. Of course, the only reason he can be that effective is because Wemby chooses to spend so much time on the perimeter. If he ever decides to play near the rim for most the game, then he's going to be a huge problem for everyone.

    Hopefully he continues to want to shoot long 3s.

    Fred and dillion were bad signing. Good culture change, but aren't worth their contracts.

    Green did bail sengun out. Sengun was a no show this game, and green carried the team with his outstanding performance.

    Corey brewer and smith did bail out harden vs the clippers.

    I do want harden back b/c our offense under fvv blows/nonexistent.

    Like what are u even getting triggered about?

    Wasn't Sengun bailing him out since the day they got drafted? Green is just paying his debts why am i supposed to thank him for that? A real man pays his debts and looks like Green is finally becoming a man.

    I'm curious how pop feels about his random "I'm just gonna pull up from 30 feet" shots. That doesn't seem like something he would like.

    Pops seems to be going through the motions, tbh.
