    Sengun too fat for friendly games, season doomed confirmed.

    Turkey's entire team, including Alpi, looked like trash.

    He looked slow and out of sync, still with stone touch around the rim.

    And bonus lol for him being benched for a lob threat big. (Yes I know it'a friendly match, basically a scrimmage,and ofcourse Alpi will start and be the featured guy, but I just had to say it lol)

    Yikes. That wasnt very encouraging.

    There were a few things that looked bad, but the only thing that really bothered me was the missed free throws.

    Hopefully this isnt a sign of things to come.

    My favorite part of the summer is overreacting to workout videos/euro ball.

    Not surprised by his performance so far.

    Sengun's offseason: Vodka party on Yachts, Sunday Funday at Chuck E Cheese.

    In general I would agree. But it’s not a good sign that he still can’t make FTs, friendly or not.

    I mean, that sounds a lot more fun than European basketball if we're being honest. If it's that bad to watch, imagine how it is to play when you're used to the NBA? lmao.

    My favorite part of summer is seeing guys work and get better. My least favorite part of any period is condescending posts, but who overreacted?

    All I see is people saying he looked bad.

    Is simply commenting on a player looking bad when they indeed look bad overreacting?

    I didnt see anyone saying this means hes trash and will be trash when the season comes. In fact in my post you quoted i specifically said none of the other bad stuff bothered me....except his ft shooting...

    And thats only because his free throw shooting has regressed every year hes been in the league.

    Alpi looks like he hasn't touched a BB in 3 months.

    Empty stands. Is this an exhibition game?

    Agree. I suppose that means he isn't coming back with a 3pt shot either which is....disappointing to say the least.
