It's nice that Sengun has someone on the team he can talk with. Learning languages is not easy...a lot easier if you're living in a place though, so I hope he gets that down.
I wanted to hear his answer to the question which was if he could tell us about Garuba’s game having played against him.
Do you see yourself as a cornerstone? John (Wall) and I are the cornerstones of the Rockets,” said Green. “The rest of the guys are role players or pieces that complete our team. We’ve lost some pieces and added some pieces. I think we’ll be fine next season.” I think so. I work hard. I stay in the gym. That’s something I want to be. …
Stone on each guy… Jalen: Electric. First step as good as anyone’s in basketball, 2nd/3rd step might be better; when he jumps, it’s really high. Can handle the ball & shoot. Jalen is a bucket. Already accustomed to NBA 3pt line. Can shoot from all 3 levels. Jalen is really, really talented. We’re gonna work on that D. … It’s all will and want. And there’s a lot of will and want. Apparent how much he loves basketball. Josh: Josh is a problem. When he’s going downhill, it’s a wrap. Can handle the ball. He’s 19 but a man when coming at you. On ball defense, chance to be truly special. … Built like Jrue Holiday or Eric Gordon. Those types bother other players. He already flashes that. … Josh has ability to be elite defender in this game as well as special attacker. Alperen: He’s unique too. Around the hoop, finishes everything. He’s a load. Big guy, plays bigger than he is. Strong. Got touch. … He’s a big guy. Not trying to be a perimeter player. Ton of skill for a big guy. Can pass, can shoot. I’m excited about him. Garuba: Best defender in the world not playing in the NBA. All these guys will have to translate. Beating up on guys on level below, not the same as the NBA. That’s the challenge for them, challenge for us. Looking forward to it.
