    Spurs about to lose to Utah?

    ...and Reaves will be out for at least a month with LeBron looking old.

    He just needs to make quick passes or quick moves to the basket, or shoot it immediately instead of pump faking if he's wide open. He can do that, we've seen him play that way many times.

    It's not about who's on the floor per se. It's that this offense looks amazing when we're fast, decisive, and move the ball well.

    It looks bad when we let Sengun or KD try to dribble, dribble, dribble while help defenders double or semi-double them.

    Also when he shook off Garlend with a cross over and that floater was the point Atkinson knew it was over and pulled the starters

    i dont know if it is development. Sengun has pretty much been the same player and forced coaches to play him. Sengun still cant shoot, not really. Amen and Bari have been marginally better, but the same. Jalen.. well he is gone.

    Edit: Sengun is a good defender now

    Sengun barely gets shots lol What Sengun are you guys talking about? He cant even get a post up they wont give it to him unless he's at the top of the key. Ive never seen people overeact to one game as much as this board does every other day its borderline stupid around here after a win or a loss lol At this point Im on board to trade Sengun for Giannis. This fandom clearly hates him. Send him somewhere he'll be appreciated.

    Did he say anything about Sengun? Like should we trade him or keep him?

    We might realistically have the best wing defense in NBA history.

    Amen
    Tari
    DFS
    Bari
    Okogie

    That's insane. Has anyone ever had 5 wing defenders of this calibre? 5 wing defenders who are net positive? Anyone?

    i've really liked what I've seen from a rusty DFS so far. We might have to cash one of these guys in at the deadline but a lot of the teams who need them are direct competitors. Cavs, Lakers, Warriors, Sixers, Heat, Bulls, Bucks, Wolves, Celtics would probably all have some level of interest in Okogie for depth.

    He deserves minutes somewhere but it looks like he will struggle to get minutes with us moving forward. Trade him somewhere in the East for a backup PG.

    True, I’ve seen better tandem between Adam/Reed or KD/Reed heck even Clint had more two men play than Sengun
