    John Stockton, James Harden.

    Kevin Porter Jr…

    Obviously the/any offense will have a ton of pick and rolls. No one is debating that.

    So Silas just never put Alpi back in.

    Nix played as many minutes as Alpi.

    Sengun doesn’t need to jump high to play P&R. What you say is a false narrative. Jalen played P&R with him all the time and it works every single time. Sengun can’t jump as high? Your proof is like?

    Yes team sucked except Sengun today. Perimeter defense is terrible, shitty shooting performance 3-28. If you guys had more 10 BBIQ, you could see facts.

    Sengun's rim running is different than Bruno's ......Senguns needs the ball on the PASS much earlier to get into his bag of tricks if the finish isn't there right away, whereas Bruno needs the ball at the finishing point giving KPJ a longer time to set up his pass.....

    KPJ almost needs 2 types of passes one for Bruno one for Sengun - Green recognizes this as his are mostly from the wing or angle and he gets it to Sengun at the right time for Alpi.

    In the end, I think it is just chemistry and learning and we will need to take more time to get it right.

    You just made my point for me. The reason we excelled under MDA was because we played more pick & roll and eliminated post ups. The philosophy was post ups slow the game down and lower possessions. That's EXACTLY what happens when we feed Sengun

    rocketchamp, I know that I, RudyTBag, do not have your superior intellect and education, but could it be that once again, you are angry at something else, and are looking to take it out on me?
