    Sengun is getting better at scoring in the clutch, and the team is slowly getting better at getting him the ball quickly in those spots.

    My main worry is that against better teams in the playoffs, you will see more teams try to eat at the shot clock so he gets the ball outside the paint with only like 7-8 seconds on the shot clock. Kind of what happened in the 2nd game vs Portland.

    Need some more variety in the sets for clutch time execution, but there is a whole season to work on that.

    Nurse is a Segunista.

    "They have a Tremendous, tremendous big man. He is awesome! (not Bruno)" Nurse at the presser
    "Fred throws him bad passes but he has such great hands he makes Fred look good." Ackerman relaying nurse's presser.

    Carried us in the clutch. Again.

    But if he could just finish better at the rim he wouldn't need to. Continues to be an issue. I think Vecenie mentioned him being second worst amongst qualified centers at shots within 3 feet of the rim just in front of Clingan. Waiting for this to turn around and we're a 4th of the way through the season.

    Still expect him to correct it so he can truly take off into stardom.

    I actually find Jalen quite likable, despite the mumbling.
