Potential extensions for Alperen Sengun and Jalen Green

Not really, he's their entire franchise and they've drafted REALLY poorly...they were going to spend that money somewhere, might as well lock down Cunningham.

 

he can't be on any team outside of houston unless he's traded, nobody else can sign him for next season

 

I dunno, I could see Sengun being the type of guy to take a little bit less in an effort to keep the team together because I see him as a guy that wants to win more than he wants to maximize the dollars in his bank account. We'll see.

 

Sengun is getting the max. No hometown discount. “You tried to replace me every step of the way, you started Bruno Fernando and now you want me to take less?! FOH.”

 

Christian Wood mostly his Rookie Year. Sengun laying only 5 minutes was embarrassing to watch by Stephen Silas.
Literally looked like Racism by Silas.

 

Sengun will get the max.After he is all nba this year it will be super max.FO did not bet Clingan and choosed Sengun instead.

 

I feel like you know this is completely wrong, surprised you would even say that

 

I am conjecturing that the FO has had a discussion with Thrilla & Sengawd... Sengawd prolly knows he is getting max (or close to it)

Thrilla was probably told "more consistency + improved defense + higher 3%" and you will get close to the max.

We have no record that Stone lies to the team (just the media / Iko).

Htown wants to maintain that flexibility for the "slim chance" at 2025 FA.

Just spit ballin.

 

How much is a baby hook dominant player worth in terms of championship aspirations? Domantas Sabonis may be the only similarly skilled player I can find to compare. Sabonis signed 4/186 - that feels about right for Sengun.

Front office waiting on these extensions sort of signals that its a race to the max for anyone on this team that can demonstrate an ability to impact meaningful postseason games the most.

 

no chance

 

Yeah just see if alpi will take 90% of the max and if he doesn’t just give it to him when you hear a team is prepared to offer it in RFA.

Green? Straight to RFA but with feelers for a trade

 

Who gives a crap about jalen’s feelings? He hasn’t shown that he’s capable of being a starter (or even close to being a starter). If he was willing to take something reasonable, maybe 4/80, i would consider it but otherwise he has to wait till he shows he doesn’t suck. Even sengun isn’t nearly good enough to throw away all that cap space because you’re worried he will be mad. If he’s mad, who cares. Nobody can pay him till next offseason anyway so not like he’s missing out.

 

Selected Sengun for max, Green for less. I don't think Green would take what I would offer, but I would give him an offer that makes sense. I don't have a good number in mind as it would take consulting with coaching staff on offering much more than KPJ got.

 

I think the only way to sell them both on taking a deal worth slightly less than the max is if you have a deal in the works to add a 3rd guy around there age and at the max level that we could get with our assets.

 

Some variables to consider with this approach are how well Jalen performs(he surely hasn't earned a near max yet) and how well our other young guns perform. Jabari, Amen, and maybe even Sheppard ( a long shot for sure) could prove they are potentially max worthy this year. If they do it could sway whether they offer Jalen the max knowing they will have the others to consider in coming years. Either way I see Sengun getting the max. Jalen would need to play at his streak level consistently for an entire season and postseason before I would offer him anywhere close to max money.

 

For those wondering why we're waiting on a Sengun extension, this is your answer.

The Sixers just got an all star and didn't have to give up any assets by just waiting a year to give their young star the max contract extension.

It would be incredibly stupid to squander that opportunity when there's no realistic consequence.
