    You consistently post data that's very uncomfortable to Sengun haters))
    They just can't digest it.

    This is Sengun's team, accept it or not.
    Without him on the long run, Houston is not #2 team, at best maybe play-inn team, but have high doubts about play-inn also.
    He does not need to be main scorer, his gravity, basketball iq, passing, post playmaking carries this team to a different level.

    I Worte in the Game Thread that Alpi is Jesus for this Team because he took all the Attention and let play their Teammades easier. He also defend very srong and they Playmaking ability makes him very Important but can the Roxkets beat the Nets at Home without Alpi? Yes they can, no they must! Maybe Alpi gives his Team an other Energie and let his Teammades feel better on the Court.

    Alperen has yet to play FREE, and that is his fault. Disregard the below caption, because it is BS. Look at how he is playing though.



    I’m still waiting on this guy. He has been awfully Sabonis-like this year, and that IS NOT his path to being a truly great player, IMO.

    I am happy he cleaned up some of his defense, but I want to see full confidence Mike D’Antoni Alperen. Houston goes to another level If he can get back there.

    He will be one of 3 big forces next to Wemby,JJJ and big face of NBA.. Only 22..

    Lakers FO has long time a fan of Alperen, because LeBron admires him and wants to play with a player like Sengun before he retires..Imagine LBJ, Doncic and Alpi...Ring and domination every year.
    Maybe bacause of this some toxic fanbase , this year impossible after extention, as an allstar at 23 or 24 , becomes Lakers ?
    Who knows?
    There is a saying it is better to know the value of the player when you still have it in your team.

    Jesus met the 1st apostle when he was 30. Tremendous chemistry in the three years that followed. Alpi and Green have known each other since the age of 19, I would expect better chemistry from them in the P&R but here we are.

    It's kind of true just by the nature of coaches. Ime playfully shamed him last year about even having more assists as a 21yr old if he didn'tdo the flashy passes.
    White chocolate was traded away. It's not for everyone(coaches).
    But you also see Ime and FVv letting Sengun operate from anywhere.

    I believe Luka LBJ and Alpi will unite in LA.
    Since both Reddick, LeBron and Luka are fan of Alpi.. And they desperately need Center.
    If l were Alpi with a b**** fanbase undervaluing their youngest allstar in their history since, without thinking go to LA and get my rings..

    Houston has the most toxic.fanbase in NBA.
    While other teams promoting, marketing their third tier , ordinary players as star, our fans **** on the Center who will be one of the faces of NBA..
    NBA's faces will be Europeans...

    I don’t think La has good balenciaga gear. Al P will be a knicks and reunite with his escort translator on draft night.

    Jesus came back after three days and he was DEAD. Sengun's leg hurts or something he's out for a week. Def not the franchise lord and savior.
    Bro crying real tears on a Sunday morning because Alpe made all star and only 92% of the fanbase loves him. Life is good lol
