    He needs to do better at the line. He is shooting around 50% for the last few games which is unacceptable. Other than that I must say he continues to amaze me and his 3 pointers are much better lately.

    Sengun needs to pull the trigger on the 3 ball. Like 3-4 times a game.

    silas would have a heart attack :D. Sengun is shooting better than Jabari actually. I was confident that he would develop a 3pt shot in a couple years but seems like it will be even sooner.

    FYI. The games we ran the offense thru Sengun, we lost every single one. When Jalen plays well we win. Who is really our best player?

    Offense thru Sengun and Jalen playing well are not mutually exclusive.

    Silas told him not to, he said it one time postgame when asked about it. Sengun doesn't shoot it because he doesn't want to get benched.

    but why? hes more efficient taking it to the rim and defenses hate it to defend him, they would love for him to chuck and for them to save some energy and face

    perhaps when he gets to shoot 18 - 20 times a game and that is double what he averages now...otherwise he just gonna ruin his and teams rhythm and shoot rockets out of games just like jalen does constantly...

    Huh? Are you suggesting we didn't run through Sengun in last nights game?

    Since KPjs injury Al-P is averaging 19.4 pts - 10.5 rebounds - 7.0 assists. For reference Damontis Sabonis averages 18.7 - 12.5 - 7.4. So pretty much All-Star numbers.

    Can't wait to see the KPj show again though.

    That looked like it hurt him to say that. Am I misreading that?

    Jorge Louis Borges dreamed heaven as a library.
    Silas's heaven should be Alpi-free basketball world.

    Not solely. Jalen initiated his own offense which confirms when HE plays well the team has better chances of winning

    He looks very unhappy about having to let Alpi have the ball more.

    Sorry, I responded before I saw your post. You are not misreading that at all. He looks SUPER ANNOYED by it.

    I didn't see whom he was responding to, so I just assumed you must be right :cool:.
