    Ime and Ergin are hardcore disciplinarians with bad tempers. Both respect Sengun like he's meant to fulfill some basketball destiny, yet some loser fans think it's normal and nothing special for Sengun to be where he is so early on in his career.

    Had to google that his 1st Gig is at Panathinaikos, normally Turks and Greeks are at odds .....lol.

    I think he is more McGrady than Ime Udoka, he is a walking Quote.

    there were like just a handful of Nalen fans who were pushing the Rockets to trade Sengun and not Jalen believing that will "unleash" JG

    Damn! "Jaws" Sengun has been working out and playing like it. Just be sure to stay healthy, big fella.

    I'll take the playmaking, rebounds, blocks, steals and assists over pure scoring. That's what makes Alpi unique and an all-star.

    I do not see Devin Booker, Jalen Green, Cam Whitmore and Dillon Brooks score 35 ppg so that is rarefied air.

    Yeah I wss just making fun of the posters placing a "35+ scorer" expectation on Alpi

    Last year alpi averaged just 20 but he together led the team in BPM and net rating. Thats a winner right there

    There are a lot of "Rockets fans" who disagreed with that just a few months ago.

    Sengun last year among centers with at least 40 games played based on NBA.com center criteria, Points #9, Rebounds #11, Assists #3, Steals #7, Blocks #46. Sengun has above average passing skills for a center and below average rim-protection skills. The guys is not AK47 or Hakeem in the non-scoring department. For Sengun to be a perennial all-star, he needs to be both efficient and high volume as a scorer. And do all that other stuff too.

    Starting to understand why so many of Alpi's fans are delusional if this is the sort of things they get in their media. Alpi would get abused playing on a team of sub-par players compared to a real NBA roster with Kevin Durant and Amen to guard him. Who exactly on Panathinaikos is going to do the rest of the work Alpi can't do? If they were world class players, they wouldn't play for that team, or on that continent.
