    Regarding Yao's game, I think that was the Barkley ass-kiss game, against the Suns.

    I’m unreasonably mad about that one missed free throw. Could’ve been a true perfect shooting night. But 5/6 is awesome too

    He took 1st, 3rd, and 4th in that list and added the missing 2nd place today.

    Hopefully Ime just goes with it. It was 2005 when Pop threw his arms in the air when Ginobli made a crazy behind the back, between the leg pass. Assists that year for Manu, 3.9 per game to 2.3 Turnovers.

    If Sengun doesn't look to the basket to check whether he succeeded, it would take even longer for defenders to figure out what happened.

    Not on this one but on some no-look passes after a drive, when he has his body back to the defender, I believe he can keep faking with an imaginary ball in his hand, and the defender will almost surely fall for it. It would be so much fun to watch.

    He is such a great player and possible hall of famer when he retires.
    He does not need to shoot so much, just in seconds when on court He makes everyone around him better.
    He started become like much more Pau Gasol..
    Just like Gasol, a great and very high iq, elite post play, elite creativity and passing..

    For those unaware, Patrick Williams is one of the better perimeter defenders in the league, and Alpi made him look like he had no idea what he was doing on that crossover.

    That's our center, folks!

    Four Consecutive games with a Defensive rating under 100. (83, 97, 89 &97 best on the team) No hesitation on contesting those threes.

    LOL he’s definitely not one of the “best defenders”. He gets subbed out when it’s time for defensive stops. James Harden is also #17 on that list. Sengun is great for us and an all star, but let’s not get crazy about him being a top defender in the league when he’s obviously not.
