I get that. I’m also someone who prefers a different archetype at the 5. I’ve been very happy with Sengun, I just can’t stand his fans
In all honesty, I'm never going to get along well with people who support the player more than the team. One of these clowns was posting over and over how he wanted him traded to Boston and how that was best for everybody involved. These are not Rockets fans, so as far as I'm concerned I'll treat their opinions like I would any other non-Rockets fan.
Take your non rocket fan ass on somewhere then. You ain’t a true Rocket fan if you want one of the best young prospects in the game traded away from Houston
You’re a true fan bc you only support one player. You don’t always keep all of your young prospects. I’m not attached to any player like y’all.
Exactly!! Idk why they feel like we all gotta be Sengun is the future 5. Like why can’t we all have preferences? It’s hard to win Sengun’s archetype at the 5 and that’s just a fact. A lot of positions will be upgraded when we’re contenders, not everyone will stay. I’m critical of all players on this team when I feel it’s necessary. It’s just SOFs care more about him over the team
You ain’t attached to the Rockets lol Hoes like you get mad because people like me support our young players and you feel a certain type of way about that player. Like I said, you ain’t a real fan of the Rockets if you want to trade away arguably the best young prospect on the team. Same as saying trade away Green, Bari or Tari.
What do you want at center? I got news for you, rim running centers haven’t won a title in a while. Play making centers have won. That’s not even mentioning Alp can still grow, no guarantee he has to be pigeon holed into a 5, specially combined with skillset of someone like Wemby
You support one player, so stop. I want the rockets to win a championship in the future and I don’t see them doing so with a slow, undersized, non shooting ass 5 that’s a defensive liability.
Lmao. I support the rockets little guy, you hate one player only. And you can’t stand getting called out on it. You are not a rockets fan so stop playin
Wemby could really help him, like we spoke about the other day. I’m also open to the fact that there could be better out there in the future. Watch how JV murders us in the paint tomorrow, just wait. It’s not necessarily a rim runner, I want a defensive anchor!
And literally you described someone else besides Alp. You are such a damn hater. Take your spurs fan ass on somewhere
I was talking trash about KPJ and Jalen the other day. Didn’t see you run to defend them. You only support Sengun, so go root for Turkey
Cleveland Cavaliers And Alp isn’t a defensive liability. This team, specifically the starters are bad defensively right now.
Wrong, I told your lying ass to have patience with our young crew. Go back to Spurs fanhood, it suits you better
Also, there’s only one other player that gets the hate on this team, still not to the levels of Alp (specially from your hatin ass) and that’s KPJ. Who I’ve also defended and mocked Silas because he’s refusing to stop miscasting him
Although I grew up in Turkey, I mainly worked as expatriate (mainly in Europe and also NC/USA) and most of time could not get this racism/discrimination/positive discrimination issues. I thought republican values (liberte-egalite-fraternite) made us all equal, all citizens. It might be Lexington,NC where I realized how bad this issue was. A singer passed away, likely Ella Fitzgerald and there was a huge gap within the communities. Afro-Americans' responses and Puritan descendants' responses were unbelivable different. I sided with Black community but decided to understand the reason for this difference, not superficially but like trying to solve an engineering problem. Checked American history (Boston Brethens, Puritans, Quakers, Constitution,Wesley,Calvinism, North-South War, Sun-belt states,..) and realized that certain people suffered a lot, more than we can imagine abroad. But as a classical liberal (not US Democrats type clowns, Burke type one)and a deist (If I was Christian I woud be Quaker because they believe everyone is equal and human is not sinful from the birth, it is a useles discussion because I don't belive in religions, only God) I believe there are very good and very bad people everywhere. I cannot say all Anglosaxons and Portuguse people (slave traders) or Germans (Nazis),Saudis (limited women rights),Indian (still caste systems),Chinese (Uyghur tortures) are bad people,some bad some good. The people suffered a lot in the past (Blacks,Jews,Gays,Women,Roma people) should be protected and to be given equal rights , no question. But as the second president of Turkish Republic (Ismet Inonu) quoted: "Minorities are equal but not more than equal". If you positively discriminate them it means that you discriminate hard-working,hard-studying normal folk. When I say minorities I don't mean only lower layer of the society but also very top. Oxford&Cambridge are the top schools in the UK and 33% of students come from 12 private high school. There is no central exam and if your family rich enough to pay £50.000/year for 5-12 years, you will likely get a place there although most of state school pupils studied harder than you and brighter than you.It is a positive discrimination and these unis will lose their spots to meritocracy based Chinese schools, sooner or later. You spent 800 years, 1000 years to create good institutions and nepotism/hypocrisy/discrimination destroys them.Not good. When I went to central university exam I knew that I could go to to top school if I pass the exam.Same for my daughter, never worried about some elites' children would take my/my daughter' hard earned places. Current Turkish President' son and daughter could not pass the exams, boy ended up in Harvard, girl in London School of Economics. Can you imagine Biden's or Trump's children would not be offered a place at uni, or King Charles' children in the UK. Unthinkable. These elites getting other people's places, discrimination against normal people. Other way around, the places at uni, sport clubs, finance, corporations are given to some minorities.It is also wrong.I co-operate with a technical start-up (within a uni) and we suffer a lot from these positively discriminated individuals. They should not be there, they are not good enough. You try to produce nozzles for rockets but this nearly graduating students lack high school chemistry/physics knowledge. Waste of time. A standard student finish the job in 3 days, these ones in 3 months..Waste of time. Everybody is not equal but everyone is to be given equal opportunities. 2% of the UK is from a certain Asian group but 10% of London Finance people are from same group. I asked to one Square Mile person "how come, what specialities they bring?" and he replied: " Nothing,,if any of them become owner/director, they just employ themselves". Certain religion group ghetto has no parking lines in London and they pay no traffic penalty. Who are these ubermensch? Why a person from Slovakia, Congo,Paraguay does not have same privileges. Congo and Paraguay suffered more than the others.5 millions Congolese were killed by Belgians, half of Paraguay people massacred by UK backed Brazilians.What can you say these people if they also want positively discriminated. We have a lovely world, full of nice people and we should protect the world/institutions to give fair chance to everyone without checking their religion, skin,race,birth place,... Do you remember one war commentator said that this year: " These are Ukrainians, blond people, Europeans, different than other (Middle Eastern,African,Asian). If you care only white, it is a crime, if you care only black, it is also a crime.
