    I think you may have missed the point. This thread was about Jalen, yet ATW has to insert something about Sengun. He can't just acknowledge Jalen, in a thread about Jalen, and leave it at that. He just has to talk about Sengun. Then when he was called out about it he doubled and tripled down.

    That's because Harden isn't very explosive in reality where as Green is. Harden outmuscles guys, but Dort's strength is well his strength and he's hard to outmuscle.

    Green doesn't beat guys because he's stronger, it's the opposite, he has to avoid contact, which puts a guy like Dort at a disadvantage as you can't slow a guy down if you can't body him up. Green can just outleap him on shots and there's little you can do to defend against that.

    I think it's actually the opposite. his vertical is low but he reacts pretty quickly and reaches his peak fast.

    Jokic is the same way, I forget the name but there's some drill to go from a standing start with arms down to get your hand 10.5 feet above the ground and he is one of the fastest.
