    He looks like he’s in better shape and a bit more filled out

    I think what this shows me is that we need alot of movement around him to fully take advantage of his abilities.
    He has the skills to finding people cutting in the lane and also of slipping screens. We need to take advantage of that and allow for players like Eason, green, kpj, kmj to get easy buckets using their athleticism.

    I think they’re all willing to move off ball, specially Green. Will Silas promote that? That’s the question

    Nah he's gonna stick in Cauley-Stein and let Alp warm the bench.

    "We think its best for our team that Alperen come off the bench to anchor the 2nd unit." -Silas probably

    we also have to surround alpi with great defenders because his defense and rim protection is nonexistent...he will also be played out of the floor in the playoffs because he cant stay with smaller players at perimeter and has trouble guarding imposing physical centers in the paint..

    Scola was a smarter player but didn't have near the talent nor physical tools Sengun has. He played within his limits but Sengun pushes all of his limits constantly.

    Sengun seems pretty smart to me as well. But I loved Scola, too.

    You are seriously undervaluing his defensive capabilities

    His gambles aren't smart. I don't find his little throw the ball up in the air contorted shots or low % passes particularly cute. Harden would do those all the time during 4th quarters or end of games and it'd be a T.O. Just make the safe, smart play.

    Scola always played within his limits. He was just too short and stubby. I'll take Sengun over him though. I do think the kid is still being underrated.

    He needs to lose alot more weight. He reminds me of rookie Kevin Love.
