    Turned Colin Gillespie into Dizzy Gillespie! Who says Alpi can’t play defense? Nobody anymore, presumably

    we saw this years ago from sengun, but Ime said Sengun was so smart there is no reason why he shouldn't be just as smart on defense..

    Man i love Ime. I want him to adopt me.

    He was solid, and playing on a sore ankle.

    I am still bummed out that he has not fixed his confidence on the three-ball. Let it fly big man...

    I'm happy he made some good one legged shots . He can make open 3 point shots too and his confidence against Jokic was great.

    I wonder how much Dream is in Sengun. The Flamingo looks like there's some Dream in there.

    3rd best behind Jokic and Embiid? He's a bust!

    No but seriously, Alpi makes me so proud man. He needed vets the most out of everyone to give him that push he needed. I can tell he's overcome a lot of those rookie and sophomore mindsets and is making great strides. He is such a good basketball player and it's wild to think he's still getting better.

    Once he starts shooting one legged threes he'll be "unbeatable" as Hakeem would say.

    Maybe he should just try one-legged free throws while he's at it :D.
