Because WC is the biggest achievement in football and there is no equivalent for it in basketball? There is the Olympics but it is a tournament where there is one team where you can take out their starting 5 and they would still be the best team every time, so that’s not a good comp.

“Imaging if KD left OKC and joined golden state and OKC immediately wins the title that is what happened to Mbappe”, yeah lets imagine that. Lets imagine a world where KD joins a team that already won before him, then won 73 wins and became the greatest team ever, cooked his ass as he fails to win a 3-1 lead and then loses to Bron in the finals, and he joins that same team gets free rings but gets jealous about Curry and ruins the vibes of yet another team, then after he leaves, a shitty version of the team he left behind with old ass Curry, Klay and Dray with missed draft picks wins yet another ring after him this time.

Sengun had inside possession so many times but Amen just couldn’t get the ball to him, Sengun was open as a roller so many times but Reed Shephard doesn’t know how to play a PnR.

This has been the story of the entire season and why things looked so much better last year. Fred could actually throw an entry pass to Sengun and Amen could operate as a slasher/cutter for Sengun to dime off to from the post. This year Sengun has had to iso from the three point line because no one can reliably feed him on the post and it’s ugly AF.

Worked last year because you’d be switching onto either Brooks or SSJ-Defense Tari. So everyone in the back court was fucked and just had to do what they could.

NewChemistry5210 | Lakers

1 | 2 hours ago

They didn’t tho? Did you watch the game? Lakers were trying to switch on Reed almost every possession, and the Rockets tried plenty of things to not give that switch up.

Reed was aggressively hedging all game, I saw pre-switches and quick doubles. Sometimes, their execution was messy, so there were phases where he just got switched on easily. But they definitely weren’t given it up in the 4th.

LeBron is simply the worst matchup as a playmaker, because he will try it multiple times in the same play. Most players would try the switch, and then move to a different action if it doesn’t work. He will run it again, and then force it, or use the disarray for a pass. There is just a physical component, where he can just move his body into a switch, and basically double himself to then pass it to the open player.

And Smart is also bad for Houston, because he is a guard, who has to be guarded by Reed, and Smart is stronger, ‘smarter’ and very aggressive, so it’s still a big mismatch.

Alpi is a good player. These are just practice games anyway since it’s not his time yet. He would get better. And would get very good if he can somehow develop a decent three ball. Superb fundamentals can take you very far.

Rockets would be stupid to trade him. Skilled big guys are still super rare (his D is not even that bad like lots of people criticize him for???).

I also think Alpi is an alpha type that needs to be the first option or 1b to play comfortably.

And Rockets need shooters ffs.

Disagree. Sengun is very good, but I don’t see him as a 1A or 1B player.

He’s a bad shooter and doesn’t create enough pressure through his scoring to open up opportunities for others, which leaves his playmaking at a tier-two level. He also isn’t efficient enough to be a true alpha.

Defensively, he’s just straight-up bad. He’s food in the pick-and-roll, terrible on the perimeter, not a strong paint deterrent, and far too prone to fouling. He also isn’t a strong rebounder, so he doesn’t even provide that latent value.

He’s basically Sabonis, but worse.

Did you see the end of the 4th quarter how the rockets choked away the game?

They are indeed braindead

I hate how he looks when he plays (floppy wavy tube man) but his game is nice and simple.

Literally beyblades spins around until opponent bites on one of the spinning fakes and/or until his body feels comfortable and balanced for the contested angled hook shot, leaning lay in, or fading floater;

And if he is double teamed, dude passes it out to the open man. Problem is, Rockets don’t got much efficient shooters lol

I can see why some described him as Jokic Lite even if he is still far from it.

That said, I also hate seeing his body language towards his teammates sometimes.

KD back game 4

This can be the first 3-0 comeback in NBA history.

he played as well as you could expect a player with his skill set could

how can the rockets win when he has this level of game, which he won’t have every game, and still lose?

Great game but he just isn’t the guy to take that last shot. Side of the backboard and an air ball.

The stats don’t tell the story, he was literally their only source of offense so he put up numbers. But he wasn’t very good by the eye test.

His shot selection is terrible though. How many shots did he take that he would miss if he shot those 9 more times.

Only reason this game wasn’t a blowout and this would’ve been a win if it wasn’t for dumbass Jabari

Did you not watch the game? I have feel most people didn’t because they’re acting like he had a bad game.

He had a good game but I cannot stand his attitude on the court. Dude cannot believe he does anything wrong and loudly whines for 44 minutes a game. Hell I bet he does it on the bench the whole time too

Alperen Sengun despite the game 3 loss versus Lakers: 33 PTS, 16 REB, 6 AST, 3 STL, 1 BLK, +10, 47 MIN
