Fair point about defensive pressure. Jalen is definitely being face guarded and blitzed more. But that also really highlights the problem because...
Jalen is being directly compared to Sengun. Same age, same draft. So yeah, that's why Sengun is also getting a bit more credit so far in the...
Again, you're oversimplifying it. Sengun is 22 and carrying a far heavier offensive load than Zubac ever has at 28. Zubac finishes plays created...
You're missing the context. Sengun is asked to create offense without an elite playmaker like Harden, while Zubac thrives off easy looks next to...
Okay good point but he also has one of the greatest distributors and playmakers ever alongside him. What do you think Sengun would be doing with...
What role player has put up what Sengun has so far each game, with 3 straight double doubles? He hasn't played his best, sure, but he's played...
Nah, not based on the actual data. Sengun needs to up his %, but he is playing overall better games and his dud was still far better than Jalen's,...
Yeah but it's not that simple. Sengun was benched for Bruno Fernando based on favoritism. Where is he at now? Also should be easier for a shooting...
All things considered, Sengun has performed way better than Jalen so far in the playoffs. He didn't play well game 3, sure, but game 1 he had 26/9...
23 is old and 21 is young? Where are you getting that from. I was just talking about their experience in the league. Jalen in year 4 and Amen in...
Sure but we don't have that A1 superstar. If the Rockets had they'd be up right now against GSW.
Nah the winner here is FVV by a longshot.
Your point isn't very good then considering why Sengun is getting a game 3 pass from most people.
I really feel bad for Cam. The way Ime is treating him is unfair. He should have played a bunch yesterday, especially with Brooks in foul trouble...
It's like the basketball universe is enjoying messing with the Houston Rockets.... Harden on the team but going up against an all time great...
Which gives you no hope when the coach thinks things are fine and adjustments don't need to happen. Ime is a very reactive, performative coach. We...
Because Sengun gets a pass for this game due to showing up strong the first two. Stop looking at things in all vacuum. Sengun put up 26 in game 1...
Not necessarily a difference maker. But a couple of timely 3s from Sheppard, especially one from Curry distance, would have changed some things...
Amen is year 2 in the NBA while Jalen is year 4. Big difference. Sure they're the same age but Jalen has been exposed to the NBA and been a...
Except Alperen had 26 points in his playoff debut and a damn near triple double in game 2. He gets a game 3 pass unlike Jalen who has thrown up...
