    Your explanation lacks credibility since we cannot accurately evaluate a third-year player yet. However, the glimpses of talent he has shown are enough to suggest he has the potential to become a generational scoring threat.

    Unfortunately, I have no idea what Sengun's contribution is... He is misbehaving by hogging the ball more than Jalen.

    Do you remember how Jalen led the team to victory almost every time when he was on fire last year? Is there any other scorer in the NBA capable of winning games almost single-handedly?

    We are sitting on a gold mine, but for some reason, we fail to recognize its true value.

    I see your point on some of the things you present, some I feel you're off basis on but one thing for sure, you got those SOFs upset! Lol

    The SOFs whine because Jalen possesses a threatening power that makes them uncomfortable with the truth; instead of accepting the facts, they cling to statistical narratives presented by fake experts.

    Does Shijun even pass the eye test yet???

    Its Sengun, don't do them like that. And like I said, I think he is solid, boderline All - Star depending on who you ask.

    I think he has exceptional vision and he is somewhat athletic and an avg shooter. Defensively he is improving but I don't think he will ever be great. That's just my honest opinion.

    I think Jalen has all the tools, I just don't know if he has the HEART OR WANT TO, to be great. Does he work hard enough during the off season?

    Jalen has undeniable potential, awaiting a competent front office or head coach to unleash it. Have you noticed the improvements he has made to his game? He's all over the court, making it difficult for opposing guards to score against him. Unfortunately, Jalen has lost his drive to score like he used to, probably due to losing the fanbase. Instead of praising him, we're making him the scapegoat. It's important to remember that Jalen is only a third-year player and even better than Kobe was at the same age.

    We need to help him recover mentally, as it's our responsibility to support him instead of leaving him to struggle alone.

    Your honest opinions do not really matter at this point. Your opinions only matter when you are mature enough to admit that they are wrong once they are proven to be wrong. And your honest opinion has been proven wrong more than 100 times in the last 3 seasons.

    No, its not but what if it was? However, let the man speak his peace. You all want everyone to agree that Sengun is the next coming, he is not!

    Like I keep saying, he is just a good NBA Player, not great! And Im ok with that. But you all want for him to be All-World, he isnt

    This data is based on scientific evidence? My eye test suggests that Sanguin holds the ball for at least 17 seconds during each offensive act.

    Kinda sad when a troll comes in and posts stuff that is intentionally wrong and other posters are agreeing with him. This guy is TRYING to be dumb on purpose, that is the point of the account, maybe rethink your opinions if you are agreeing with him.

    We're just fans giving our opinions behind a computer. And you REALLY think I care about what you think or how you feel?

    Guys

    We got to accept the fact that everyone is not going to agree.....AND ITS OK! Just because I don't agree that Sengun is not the next Hakeem, doesnt make me wrong. Its just MY assessment.

    No, I don't agree with everything @OnlyRockets is saying but it doesnt make him wrong.....its just how he feels.

    Sure stats and figures are good but I think you guys put too much value in numbers, stats and figures, when it does not tell the whole story. There have been plenty of games where one team out played another team and they lost.
