    Sengun has limitations, but a year without a PG also did not do him any favors. The players around him are not that smart either. If I played with Sengun, I would cut to the basket the moment he gets double teamed. Only Amen and Tari did that, and Amen did it because he cannot shoot. Durant, apart from his off-court antics, is an incredible player, but he also is not the smartest, and it showed.

    I still think if we had Adams and FVV, we beat Lakers in 5 games.. Well, if we had them all year long, we would likely face Timberwolves anyway. Sengun was much better when sharing the floor with Adams.

    If we keep the current players, my 2026-27 wishlist would be a healthy Adams and FVV, and a version of Sengun that complains less to refs.

    Think the hilarity of that trade offer was the fact Jalen Green is such a woeful basketball player and shouldn't be mentioned in the same breath as other NBA players.

    When suggesting Sengun it's comparing apples to oranges. One is an NBA player. The other is a woeful G-League wannabe who jumps high.

    I haven’t kept up with the draft because Houston didn’t have a significant pick but would Sengun for a pick that would land us Kingston Flemings be a fair trade? Would it be enough to get us, say, the 6th pick?

    Hometown kid who fits what we need. Good defender, good ball handler, good shooter.

    I don’t know if it’s a reach/overpay or if the other team laughs in our face. Thoughts?

    The other team won't get to laugh in your face, because we already are.

    Calm down, *******. I was genuinely asking because this is supposed to be the best draft in a while and very difficult to get into. I haven’t looked into this draft so I don’t know what the value is, but it’s gonna take something of value like Sengun to participate. We need a pg and this draft has very talented pgs.

    So if that trade isn’t fair, maybe Chicago or whoever has that 5th-8th pick would give us something else in addition because we’d have to match Alpi’s salary.

    He says calm down.

    While calling names in the same breath.

    Take your red nose off next time you post, clown.

    I am a big Alpi fan but fully admit his obsessive complaining to the refs is a very annoying problem that probably causes them to call less actual fouls.

    damn, he’s viewed as the most overrated…so he gets little respect from the players

    KD group chat messages are how they all feel…can’t shoot, can’t defend, and cries and screams for fouls on every play

    yikes

    I feel desensitized to Alpi's whining because of the Harden and Gordon years...
