    He's not too far behind Yao imo.

    If you gave me either in their primes I'm taking Sengun but i think if Yao needed to he could develop a 3 pointer. He was cash money at the FT line.

    That if you're a big who can't pass you get doubled a lot.

    The **** is this weird ****? Keep it basketball, talking about someone's "sweet mouth?" This is why the credible Sengun fans struggle with acceptance from the forum, you realise that right?

    I mean, he's literally 8 All Star team selections, 5 all-NBA team selections and an all-Rookie team behind Yao. This is the kind of hyperbole that needs to be dialled back a bit, Sengun's got a long way to go to reach any of our big time big men.

    Hey idiot, l did not say that Sengun is the best big after Hakeem, lf you have lq.
    I mentioned as Alperen Sengun the best young, 21 years old player and his post game is very well.
    I dont know how old are you and what do you know basketball- l was a professional and national player and know NBA very well- and l know what l am saying.
    So shut your mouth and stop manipulating what l said.

    I loved Yao but Sengun's 3rd year numbers are better than Yao's 1st, 2nd or 3rd year numbers and he became all star thanks to Chinese voters let's not kid each other. Is prime Yao better than him? Yes. Is 21 year old Sengun better than 24 year old Yao? Also yes. I want Sengun to become all star because i want us to have a face after Harden. Also being an all star might be a motivation for him and he could start working harder to sharpen his tools. Players, coaches praise him after every game. Being on the same court with them, being 'friends' with them might help us indirectly but i do not give a damn about all star selections i don't even watch the game. It's a popularity contest and i rarely find myself agreeing with voters. Even if Sengun gets selected i will skip it as usual. I do not watch pre-season games either they are all meaningless.
