    When Alpi isn't facing a height/athleticism deficit (not trying to denigrate him, don't take it as an insult) he is at his most unstoppable. He's always good, but when he has that advantage seems to be when he is completely unstoppable.

    Didn't PHX run KD off a ton of screens? Is that going to be an issue for him in this offense?

    Sengun didn't know. You can't just pass the ball to Capela in the post and expect him to create his shot. You have to throw him a lob at the rim or a lead pass for him going toward the basket.

    I've seen more than enough of Holiday, worse than summer league Josh Christopher

    Thanks to Durant and Jabari its almost like triple big. Should be the best rebounding team in the NBA this year.
