    usage is about who finishes, not who is playmaking.

    Sengun is central to building the offensive set, unlike Jabari, Tari or Jalen for example. He is involved in some way but I wouldn’t call most of it playmaking.

    Sengun could have been developed in many different directions. İme didn’t choose the jokic type playmaker direction. So far so good, especially fixing the defense and increasing core strength were major good calls but you can always see he has tons of playmaking potential and want to see more of that.

    Ime was recently training with Fred and now he's hanging with Alpi. Just looks like what a good NBA head coach does.

    I remember in the playoffs, Alpi tried so hard to setup Jalen with easy offense. He was like spoon feeding him...

    It seems to me like a great way to take a vacation and have it all count as a business expense.

    Lmao and that is supposed to take away from his game? If this era played out, dude is not going to bulk up, shoot 3s and assist better than Young Hansen.

    He was not asked to pass up shots.

    He was going to play like Chet and Victor.

    Was Yao mobile enough to play like Chet or Victor? That's not the image I had in mind.

    What's the point of comparing Sengun with Yao? It's like comparing Wemby with Shaq. They are completely different types of players playing in completely different cultures of the game even though all of them are centers.

    He was mobile as a rookie, his youth instructors did not focus on long range shooting and ball handling but it is at least plausible to me.

    Its no comparison. SOF too often get beside themselves & start saying dumb crap. Yao Ming was in a different stratosphere then Sengun's under the rim post moves

    I think the point is to rile up the "only" fans ;)
