I think Ime’s vision for Sengun’s growth is as an all around C, not purely a scorer or offensive #1. Close to but not exactly Al Horford-esque....
The point is not to shoot over his contests, it’s to get him out of the paint / easy secondary rim protection position. If Wemby is closely...
Wemby is the toolsiest defensive player of all time, and probably will end up as one of the best. No shame to admit Sengun going 1v1 to score...
You’re wrong. Sengun is not getting paid star money. He’s got a contract that’s 19% of the cap. Closest players to 19% of the cap this year: Nic...
Ehh, honestly a lot of times the most important adjustment is just "players need to play better and execute better on the floor". Tactical tweaks...
Sengun along with FVV can be a real culprit of our methodical and predictable pace when we get into halfcourt sets. Some players are more...
Guys, Tari has never been a starter, averaged 10 pts per game, or played more than about 20 minutes per game. He's probably not going to do any of...
I think people on here have an out of date view of NBA offensive coaching. It's incorrect to think Ime or any coach can "scheme up" an offense to...
If Jalen has an open 3, he needs to take it, every minute he’s on the floor for his whole career. The same is true of every player in the league...
I didn't say were were a mediocre team. I said we have a mediocre offense, which we do. Last year we were 20th in offense at 115.0 ORtg. 24th in...
Unfortunately the game has changed. The players don't just need to cut more, or do more offball movement, or set more screens. All successful...
Zero midrange, floater, or push-shots from Sengun last night, out of 22 attempts. No 2P FGA outside of 8 feet. That’s not going to work. Nobody...
The starting lineup was a +10 last night in a game we lost by 5.
Ime has a lot to improve on offensively, but “system” was not the problem tonight. Run back through all our shots in this game up to the last few...
Jalen (and Fred) were not settling taking all those 3’s against Charlotte PnR coverage. Those are the shots we want. Dribble up, open 3’s against...
Even at the 7 year mark, Jalen’s extension would be capped at 140% of his previous salary, like all extensions. That takes him to $51M starting...
Tari Eason is not getting "similar or more money to $25M/yr" next summer, unless something wildly unexpected happens this year. We've seen it...
I've come around on this deal a little bit, after working through the extension / free agency scenarios Jalen will have in the future. I had been...
The max doesn't change if an extension is signed now vs next year. Extensions are based on the year the contract starts, which will be 2025 in...
Obviously it's good for us in all contract scenarios if Jalen is good, and bad for us if Jalen is bad. But if he's good and outplays his contract...
