    A lot of players from Europe seems to flop and complain a lot. Must be a Euro league thing

    He was projected to be a better shooter even before the draft.

    KD has 2 fouls, he doesn't want to pick up a 3rd

    Yep, I think that was the main difference between them. With Amen being a better ball handler.

    both have trash jumpers.

    it's just this game where ausar turned up a notch.

    Alpi is like 81 rating player in real life. He is no where near all-star caliber player, and should be low usage 3rd option in contender team that gets around 16/9/5. Giving more opportunitie does not yield more stat to those who already capped their talent

    Sengun looked so much stronger and confident at beginning of season, now he’s a marshmallow

    Is Ausar Thompson the franchise player?

    That should be a flagrant right? It’s up above the shoulders?

    yes both have trash jumpers. But Ausars was always thought to be slightly better.

    if you hit Lebron like that on the head it would be a flagrant 3

    Thats why I say Sengun is SOFT! Okogie drives on a breakaway with force, Sengun drives on a breakaway for a lay up and don't get the call....SOFT
