So the "Siakam scream" drives me nuts whenever he goes to the hoop. Now Sengun is doing the same crap, and he puts his arms out like "WTF"?
Alpy aneurysm?

I hate when sengun starts dribbling and driving to the basket from the top of the key. 30% of cases he gets stuck and cringley starts flopping, 30% of cases he stumbles and loses the ball, 30% of cases he actually manages to get to the basketball but then only makes 40% of the attempts at the rim
Not sure why they think this is the way to use him this year

Rockets had a 5 game win streak, but the best team they beat was Toronto. Losses to OKC, DET, SAS, now trailing MIL at the half by 11.
Seems like the gimmickry ultra-big, no real PG setup works against some middle-to-bottom-half teams, but can’t get it done otherwise?

More talented version of the Magic.
In todays league, you have to have a floor general.

Without a point guard setting up the offense they are turning the ball over at an alarming rate. I think they would be scary on offense with one
