    Curious to see Alpy's counters this year to the centers that gave him trouble last year. Oddly enough, none of the "star" centers seemed to. It was mostly defensive oriented dudes that are there to take up space (and JJJ). Nurkic, Valenciunas, Gobert, JJJ were a few I remember that would give him fits.

    Wemby and Bam are respectively in their own tier.

    So in this graph Alpe and Jakob Pöltl are close.

    Assuming the units are points per something on both axes, that graph should be stretched vertically making Wemby look even more like an outlier.

    All in a days work. Just the weight of the franchise on his back. No big deal....

    The wrist band at the elbow is here to stay?
    If it gives him confidence to shoot 3s, then keep it.

    Aren't we hurting ourselves by extending him now?

    Probably having a happy Sengun is better than the slight chance of improving in next summer ‘s free agency, considering that it would imply not renewing Jalen Green, or overpaying for our payroll and tax

    Y axis is eflections, steals, blocks, and offensive fouls drawn.

    Alperen & Cam duo looking great!
    This is big news. Come on Alperen make these shots!

    Ime is right that Alpi was often pump faking nobody because he was actually open. Just let it fly - or don't - but the pump faking is just unnecessary hesitation.
