@BiasedHouston @GodlikeCam3 Dawg Like Kornet, a fairly good rim protecting big is being played of the floor lmao.
Do you think with OKC and SAS in the west the rockets can do anything with a “more than fine” defensive big that’s bad on offense ?
English
@GodlikeCam3 My point is if Sengun was as good as he is supposed to be offensively, he’s more than fine defensively. His defense isn’t some team crippling defense, we’ve been an elite defensive team for 3 years now with him.
English
Actually completely disagree here.
Alperen Şengün's defense is not even remotely a problem for the Rockets, particularly in the postseason.
Alperen Şengün not being able to succeed in a postseason setting against the Lakers bigs is concerning.
SleeperRockets@SleeperRockets
Clutch Points’ Jeff Pagaduan thinks Alperen Sengun shouldn’t be safe from the Rockets’ trade talks this offseason “Alperen Sengun may be unfairly scapegoated for the Rockets' first-round loss, but one thing is becoming evident: the issues he has on defense are glaringly real.’’

@toushirou31 @jbienkahn @HPbasketball Didn't know ppl would dickride so hard for free its actually astonishing

Tom doing the lord’s work here. No more OKC fan excuses. Your dude is a mathematically confirmed flopper…

OK I did it. I tracked over 1,000 shots for SGA, Brunson, Harden, Spida and Wemby in the playoffs. Here's how often they fell: sports.yahoo.com/nba/article/fl…

👀 NEW @YahooSports:
I charted every shot Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has taken this postseason and tracked how often he fell.
And then I did the same for Jalen Brunson, James Harden, Donovan Mitchell and Victor Wembanyama.
Here's what I found: sports.yahoo.com/nba/article/fl…

@ClutchPoints @GetUpESPN Wemby fell A TOTAL of 8 times on his shots during the WHOLE playoffs btw.
SGA fans, yall are litterally soo fucking delusional trying to defend this flopper

"How do I root for that? ... There are times when I watch OKC play, I don't feel like they respect the process of the game. It's too much foul baiting."

Ethical hoops. People aren’t just rooting against OKC because of their effective but cheap foul-baiting. They’re rooting against them because the best player in the NBA refuses to play like that despite the apparent advantages. The contrast of this matchup has made Goliath David.

I love how the Free Throw discourse around OKC has suddenly died.
San Antonio: 46 FTs
OKC: 36 FTs
PO Rankings:
SAS: 6th
OKC: 14th
These narratives ain't mathing.

@getbetterso @BumpersElite @Kd7_Szn Sure but KD in year 3 was not better than Wemby lmao. He scored 30 on worse FG% only a slightly better 3pt% and played 10 more minutes
English
@BumpersElite @Kd7_Szn so?? kd been avg 25+ppg for more than a decade

@LilBeanDip5012 @GilsArenaShow Yo it might sound crazy for non spurs fans that just watched the last two games but Castle is by far the best passer to Wemby.
He is the only one that consitently finds and tries to trow him lobs. Even with the 11 turnovers if you look at that game 1 he kept passing that shit
English
@RuubenYb @GilsArenaShow Have they ever thrown the lob much to him? I’ve only got to see national games and against the thunder. But I don’t feel like I’ve seen it much but I’ve never thought about it either
English
Kenyon Martin reached out to one of the Spurs assistants to question why they aren't running more lob plays for Wemby.

Wemby was absolutely LIVID watching SGA get his MVP trophy… it’s definitely personal 😳
(via @j7zaza)
English
@keldonGOAT He would be the ultimate enforcer off the bench.
Having a vet teach this up-and-coming dynasty the GS way would be huge.
His defensive presence and playmaking knowledge at the 4 would be absolutely AMAZING for the development of Carter Bryant and KJ

BRIAN WRIGHT ALL I NEED THIS OFFSEASON IS ONE MAN AND ONE MAN ONLY TO PROTECT WEMBY, HARP, CASTLE AND ALL OUR PLAYERS

@TheAthletic @LawMurrayTheNU i'm sorry but stephon castle is not 5 sub-tiers above Trae Young and Anthony Davis. I'd even put Flagg above Castle.
I get Castle is a good young player but playing next to Wemby really covers up a lot of his offensive limitations.

Welcome to Tier 3 of The Athletic’s NBA Player Tiers, where we rank the top 125 players in the league.
This is quite possibly the most polarizing tier — made up of swing players who ultimately “decide playoff spots,” says @LawMurrayTheNU.

@HoodiCastle As much as I have been critical of Fox watching the game last night without him showed me how much we need him.
You can tell that Castle and Harper still don’t know how to dictate the speed of the game well.
I think we 100% need to start him and just see how the game flows
English
He may not like it, but if I were Mitch Johnson, I'd try using Fox as the sixth man and see how it goes. Harper's defense is just too valuable to have come off the bench in this series, and I think Fox would cook being the primary scorer when Wemby rests. Might have something there 🤔
English
@Ksubii670265 @Lleyto7 @kylippers @ShxdowMoonFr @OnyxOdds Exactly lmao, Chet was fking useless on defense while he got locked up BY HARPER.
English
@Lleyto7 @kylippers @ShxdowMoonFr @OnyxOdds And was scared to guard wemby? Buddy 😂 mind u dylan was the one guarding chet game 1, dude finished with 8 points, hes 7’1 btw, u have no ball knowledge, Harper as a roomie washes chet

@7Bignate @WembyAlienEra Facts man Harpers upside is legit scary. The thing I love about castle is his workethic and how he keeps surpassing expectations. It's truly gonna be scary when they will have some offs together in the lab
English
@RuubenYb @WembyAlienEra For sure. Castle is also deemed untradeable which makes sense. I refer to Harper as his future running mate because I usually coincide that with offensive production, and I think Harper's ceiling offensively is insane, but in terms of overall impact Castle will be right there too
English
Dylan Harper on being a Spur:
“I feel like not a lot of people get this experience just to be a part of such a great organization and a great group of guys..
I wouldn't want to be anywhere else. I think this is kind of where I'm supposed to be.”
