    They can play together. But this time they played through Wood and sengun was standing in the corner for spacing. Switch that and it will work.

    Am I mistaken or does Alpi look bigger and stronger than Summer League...
    My recollection from Summer was, "this kid's a bit undersized"... This here was a man's man move!

    Do you think it was a systematic problem that can't be solved? It seemed to me rather they did not know how to play that line up. Suddenly they stopped playing the regular off of Sengun ball. A little bit of omg-two-bigs-again-panic! But in terms of the result you are totally correct. If they do not use Sengun properly when he is in Wood, it will look horrible, no different than the Wood-Theis combo. The difference is that, I believe, there is something that would work with Wood-Sengun combo, unlike Wood-Theis.

    Sengun is really earning everything. He got his minutes by playing triple double basketball. Silas simply could not take him off and was forced to try him with Wood.

    He is improving so fast too. Every single aspect of his game looks better. The guy is a quick learner. It helps that the others are learning to use him as well. I thought Jokic comparisons were crazy but the other day I heard that he was watching Jokic videos and it shows on the court. The Jokic comparison, though he will become his unique self, is not that off. He can make Jokic type of effect. When you have a big with such good understanding of the game, and the passing ability, it opens so many possibilities for everyone on the court.

    This season with Sengun reminds me so much of our early excitement with Yao during his first year.
