    The irony of YOU calling someone stupid then make the dumbest comment of mankind. Sengun's not winning any MIP awards bro. He was already benched earlier this year for defense, then the game before tonight he was atrocious again. He's so bad defensively if he blocks a shot you guys treat him like Mutumbo. The bar is significantly lower for him

    The lower number means better defense. I know stats, facts, and numbers past 10 are hard for you. It'll just go over your head like everything does.

    But you'll deny like you always do. Your "eyes" and feelings are somehow better than facts. You live in some delusional fantasy land where you are always right no matter what is thrown at you.

    Sengun played a very meh game yesterday, almost had 0 impact on the outcome. Virtually any starting center in the league would have played the same if not better. Overrated might be a word that attaches to Sengun in the near future if he does not start to play better and more consistently.

    Don't ever be the guy that says he needs a player to do X in order to hit your bet.

    No one cares except you.

    you must have missed the "I'm not doing corny sarcasm about Sengun" memo. For now on it's straightforward Sengunacy for me--I've joined the cult.

    I'm just struggling to adjust, I'm not sure if to become a Sengun hater or genuine Sengun cultist.... Both sides are pulling me...

    I guess none of ya'll actually know why the "shtick" began with in the first place, it wasn't to ridicule Rockets fans or troll or bully anyone. It was because Sengunians would essentially insult anyone that dared critique Sengun or praise any other player on the team. It was because Sengunians did say $hit like what we say except we do it jokingly.... Two things, either you are a butt hurt Sengunian that hates being mocked because your outtakes are as delusional as the things we jokingly say or you are too sensitive to read other people's opinion on the internet.

    Don’t get sensitive now.
    You and Os have been trolling for too long now to play victim. You’re worse than the SOF at this point

    look, I sincerely complained about that racist coach Udoka pulling Alpi after 26 minutes last night, a heinous act that kept Alpi from reaching his full potential and a double-double, and all I got in response was someone saying "Don't ever be the guy that says he needs a player to do X in order to hit your bet. No one cares except you."

    If instead I had been sarcastic and mocked the Sengunatics who complained about that racist coach Udoka pulling Alpi after 26 minutes last night, a heinous act that kept Alpi from reaching his full potential and a double-double, I likely would have gotten a response of "Honestly I am tired of seeing your corny sarcasm about Sengun."

    like I said, it's all so confusing

    Is anyone else starting to get 'overrated' vibes from Alperen?

    back in the day when I was sarcastic, I probably would have reported that comment. But I'm feeling much better now.

    1st person I ever blocked was the Green Bay guy in the Texans threads. Then I was like, huh, this is a good feature. I then blocked the 2 dorks in the Garm threads and it's so much more enjoyable. Even when I used to spend too much time in the disease infested D&D back in the day, I never thought about using the block feature.
