    i like people posting Sengun trades... it'll make for some fun fodder down the road... lol

    "Hey man, remember when you wanted to trade the MVP 2 years before for like the #7 pick? I think you were even throwing in more assets iirc... lol! Good times!" ;)

    Bro if we had landed the #1 pick and picked Jabari I would offer Sengun and 17 for the 3rd pick to draft Paolo without hesitation

    That's not true.

    Also: How about Sengun and John Wall for former MVP Russell Westbrook?

    No. The average NBA one was. I don't care if Paolo is more efficient than the average college player.

    Rockets should trade Sengun for Tony Snell. Make fun illegal. Ban alcohol at the Toyota Center and broadcast the games in black and white.

    It’s hard to have a stacked team and no space imo. That offense was a take your turn offense.

    While Paolo led in usage and FGA, it’s not like there was a huge disparity in 1-6 on the team.

    I absolutely think he’s the safest prospect, but limited upside and I don’t think he’s anything more than a 4 in the league.
    Jabari and Chet are more positionless imo.

    It is dumb! No gm in the league would trade a top 5 pick in this draft for sengun. None, Zero.

    I'm not sure how he ended the season, but I suspect it was dripped.

    Sengun's FTr for the season was over 44%.

    That was best among rookies in 2022 and 15th in the entire Association.

    This post operates under the false assumption that every gm in the league makes the right decisions all the time

    Nah. Ataman isn't built to be an assistant. He has a massive ego and refuses to discuss his ways.

    its still relatively low for sengun... it was over 50% for greater part of the season until lucas and silas make him chuck a lot of 3 pointers and took away his post up opportunities where his ft attempts come from....

    Is Sixgun a typo, or is that actually a thing?

    Folks like clutch and others deem it extremely important that sengun develops a 3 point stroke. And one of the deciding factor y they want to ship him

    How important is it really?

    Getting #3 was great and all but let’s face it the #2 pick would’ve gotten the Rockets exactly what they needed most
