It's not about JoeStarJokic48. It's not one random account firing off a take into the void. That would be the easy dismissal. It's the thousands upon thousands hitting like, joining the painfully real and unbearably loud dialogue. It's the quiet shift from fringe opinion to common knowledge, from denial to recognition. That's when you know something's changed. The cat isn't just out of the bag, it's halfway down the street and escaping at cheetah speed. Alperen Sengun has been exposed and people can't unsee it. Stone missed the clean "sell high" window. Now the only question is whether he has the nerve to move him this summer before the floor eventually drops out entirely. History has a long memory and it will not look kindly on the crowd that swore Alperen Sengun was the Houston Rockets franchise cornerstone.
I had to click "show ignored content" to see what idiot you all were arguing with. HLM is a clown and everyone will be better off with him on their ignore list.
Love it when Hollins act like he’s tight with Murph and how well versed he is with Rockets history. I bet Murph is like who tf is this guy.
You do realise there's only one person talking about men's underwear here, right? And you're trying to imply that they're the sus ones, seriously?
the good news I suppose in this KD controversy is that at least getoffmydickerson acknowledges Alpi is the True Franchise Player™
KD was about to get a free hair transplant in Turkey this summer, but I think he will be banned from that country going forward. @Snow Villiers
Watch Durantulas body language as Alpi tells him that he now has to go to Lebanon for the hair transplantation.
Lord have mercy, so our eyes were not deceiving us. Trade value dropping by the day, thanks KD for telling the whole NBA how trash our young core is.
What has happened to Sengun? He now has the lowest TS% out of all qualified 20 PPG scorers this season. He can't be this bad offensively while also regressing defensively from last season.
Fred VanVleet: If you are ranking the top bigs in the NBA, I think he [Sengun] belongs in that conversation. I think the gap between 1 and 2 maybe bigger than the gap between 2, 3, 4 and 5."
He is not wrong, Jokic is an all-time great, the next 4 are behind him by a large gap. Alperen, at 23 is just a fringe all-star with room to grown. Jokic is a 3x MVP, NBA champion, and future HOF. Sengun is in the top 5 conversation and has room to grow which is great, but not Jokic. Nobody else, even Embiid (his closest competition) or Wembayama (rising star with potential for either HOF greatness or the next Ralph Sampson), are in the conversation.
