    It still remains that Alpy is the most creative player on this team, he just lacks convincing D and a good shot.

    We just can't seem to get players that can do it all.

    If we’re gonna be trading assets, I’d rather it be for KAT than MT. If we can sign MT in free agency, then that’ll be fine imo

    The problem for Turner in these cases is both Sabonis and Sengun are better players than him.
    Turner is in contract year and having his career stats as:

    16.7p/ 7.9r/ 15a/ 0.6s/ 2.2b per 30, 54.9%fg/ 38%3ptfg/ 78.3 %ft

    Sengun's per 30:
    16.3p/ 9.7r/ 3.0 a/ 0.8s/ 1.0b 54.9%fg/ 20%3ptfg/ 79.4% ft

    Turner has better bpg and 3pt percentage while Alpi having better rebounding and assisting. Their points, points percentage, steal, ft percentage are more or less same.

    But, a big BUT, Turner having this stats in his 8th year, a prime time for a player (he never had better stats before) as Alpi having his 2nd year. Alpi is paid around $3.3M/Year when Turner looking for 10 folds of that amount.

    I would like to see Turner or Mo under Rockets jersey but there is no need to overrate. No overrate, no more head honchos.

    I think you are underrating 3pt% for a center. Also, Turner has never been placed in a role of sole center in starting lineup before.

    He is a better rim protector and 3p% shooter than Sengun. I think that matters so much, it might tip the scales to Turner. Do you think Sengun can play center on a championship team?

    Then we can draft Scoot

    Trade Segun,Kmart,Christopher, Bucks 1st, Bk1st for OG

    Scoot Henderson /Tyty
    Green/Kpj
    Og / /Tari/Mathews
    Bari/Kmart
    Turner/Garuba Bruno

    Trade Gordan for whatever you can get,
    go after a veteran pg ,maybe Rubio
    Edit: forgot about salaries going out add Eg to make the salaries work

    I dont think so they're going to want alot and I'd do it . That's only if we draft Scoot.
    If it can take Less than that that's even better

    Agreed. BUT sign Turner and Harden, draft Scoot and send our godfather oackage to Toronto so they can tank.

    Ty+KPJ+Jaygup+Sengun+KMJ+Gordon(picked up option in summer)+Nets assets for both OG and Siakam

    Turner/Garuba
    Smith/Eason
    Siakam
    Green/OG
    Harden/Henderson

    9 man rotation next year

    What about poor rebounding and disgusting assisting, never having 17 points per game or 8 rebounds per game season for Turner?Very poor stats. In 8 years never having 8 rpg? His best assisting season 1.6 apg in2018-19 season. The boy does not know how to pass/when to pass.

    Sengun will have much much better career than Turner. Actually comparing them is an insult to Alpi.

    You are still lolling?
    Grow up.

    Or just go to your schadenfreude mood.

    Why I am not ignoring you? I will soon, may be in 10 minutes time after feeding the cat.

    Go ahead, i don’t give a ****. You SOFs don’t respect other’s opinions. The dude said nothing wrong and you wanna put him on ignore bc he has a different opinion? Not everyone has to blow Sengun and think he’s the greatest ever. People are allowed to feel differently. You grow up, bc that’s immature as ****

    Turner is a better defensive rebounder than our current starting center, and way better defender.

    Don't need assists out of a Center.

    Yeah, I’d expect a legit young star with that package. OG is good, but idk if he’s that good lol

    Are you serious when you say "Don't need assists out of a Center" or just trying to provoke/to troll?

    If Alpie gets 16/8/1.5 stats in his prime, in his 8th year, it means Alpie is a bust. That stats is OK for Turner type of players, not for Sengun.

    Sorry, maybe there is a language barrier here, but I can't even understand the point you are trying to make.

    He’s worse overall rebounder than our current starting center and far less upside
