    Again Silas is right by pulling Sengun. He's our worst defender and is turnover prone. If defense is our achilles heal, we need more defensive guys on the court like Bruno. Also KJ needs to start

    You know who didn't have a tough go? Jokic!! He got his easiest buckets with Sengun guarding him. Expect Jokic to do the same thing tonight

    Bruno is a worse defender than Alp.

    somebody needs to show the stats. Bruno and Alpi are almost the same on defense.

    Says who? Bruno is our best rim protector and weak side defender. What exactly does Sengun do good defensively?

    Right, Bruno isn’t an upgrade defensively at all. His defensive rating is higher (higher is worse) than Alp.
    Now…none of them are good, including all of the starters

    Sengun is better rebounder and disruptor. He has great hands and anticipation, defends the passing lanes very aggressively.

    Fernando is little better post defender.

    And that's it.

    Because he's played more. Bruno is a better defensive player all around. When we had KJ, Bruno & Jabari playing we looked like a different team with Sengun not playing

    Go ahead and do it for every big and guard too.
    Bruno has 122.9 defensive rating
    Alp 118.9

    Plus/Minus isn’t even close
    Rebounding goes to Alp
    Deflections goes to Alp
    Blocks goes to Alp

    You look dumb when you say these things.

    senguns defensive potential is tru the roof...
    but it takes work, coaching and more than anything playing time...
    hes didnt even play 10 full nba games in his entire nba career...
    hes basically a rookie

    When the season started, Alp was miles better defensively than Bruno because of the lineup played.
    Now Alp plays with Jabari - who isn’t quite ready defensively and guards that aren’t very good at staying in front of their man (mainly KPJ- one of the worst iso defenders in the league right now)

    Alperen should get more plays run for sure, long as he know his role and that Jalens the man.
