    Wemby has turned into a flopping fish. Ethical basketball I guess.

    Joker is distorting people’s perspective - what Sengun is doing this year is exceedingly rare.

    Jokic is an all-time great. Very few people can reach that standard. Sengun is an all-star caliber playwr and climbing into all-NBA consideration, yet a vocal minority just keeps hating him, even though he plays for their favorite franchise. These so-called "Rockets fans" are the ones calling for Jalen to "come back home". Pathetic.

    Sengun and Jabari lost us this game. Ime should've rolled with Capela and DFS but he has no feel for the game.

    Sengun utterly embarrassed himself. He is a pathologically horrific shooter, like no muscle memory whatsoever. If he’s not staying after practice shooting 200 free throws and another 100 jumpers from various positions, if he’s not the first one out there before games shooting, then he doesn’t have the work ethic to be a franchise type player. It’s like someone with a learning disability who has to put in the extra work all the time. He has the shooting version of that. His summer sessions don’t mean a damn thing as has become painfully clear, whatever he gains will be gone 1/3 of the way into the season.

    God I wish the haters would made it somewhat difficult.

    This is just laughable, and almost on par with how woeful Ime's coaching is.

    They could've said his free throw shooting was horrid.

    They could've said his showing on the guard wasn't strong and was blown by on occasions.

    But no, they said garbage like this.

    The irony, coming from a poster with that name. Nothing more even needs to be said.

    Whilst I agree with the sentiment that a head coach should go with what's hot. I'd also love people to acknowledge Sengun is rarely ever put into position this season to capitalise on his strengths... when he does he absolutely cooks. Imagine any other coach in the league forcing their player to game after game after game play to their weaknesses.

    Yet Sengun is constantly flamed for it hahaha. Trade him and Reed please Stone. Clutchfans deserves nothing less than another coach to utilise them properly.

    Did you watch the game, or look at the box score and think Sengun defended him the entire game?

    That was a rhetorical question - based on your post I know you didn't watch the game.

    Sunk us tonight. The bad free throw shooting from this team starts with Sengun.

    Such an undeserving all star, he will only make it because he is foreign with the new dumb format.

    I literally saw the entire game. Are you stupid for defending alp tonight? He was soft af, he definitely can't hold embiid he looks scared of him. Bari and dfs was on him so was clint..
