  1. Jalen my dawg but slight carry @1:08 into the poised left hand. Beautiful effort tonight tho, grow his game & strength & be smarter bout his shots, he may have jus made a breakthru

  2. Why are we letting Jonas get 25 pts bro? I love Sengun but, he's not a center at all he's a PF. He doesn't have the strength, length or athleticism to guard 7 ft centers. Bad loss man.

  3. I'm not surprised Jonas averaged 25pts tonight to go along with a double-double, two assists and 1 BLK. He has that type of talent. He's a very gifted Center. One of the most underrated Centers in the league.

  4. Good win that the pels needed badly, Ingram has been hitting very contested shots and the team playing good defense and giving effort.

  5. This is a very good win for the Pelicans. Not only did they shoot 50% from the field, but defensively they did a nice job of shutting down Sengun, Brooks and Jabari Smith Jr.

  6. Let me write what happened. They try to use Alpi like Draymond Green and he gets cold and demoralized. Because when you attract opposing players and pass the pass to a free teammate, there is no one to turn that pass into a score (except Whitmore, who is not playing due to J. Green). In the first half, I counted to 8 and left it. He made 6 of his 8 passes to his free teammate and they could only make 1 of 8 three-pointers. Don't look at the stadiums, if they could make 1/3 of those passes, Alperen would have a 20-point T-Double thanks to the free space he would have.
    1 watch every match without exception, and before I used to get angry at my friends who fanboyed about SengΓΌn and commented on pages sharing Rockets content, but now I'm even more angry than them because I noticed something that bothers me incredibly, they are using Alperen's modesty as a weapon against him. There is no such thing as hierarchy in this team, you cannot throw your best player to the bench by saying that he is performing mediocrely. If you do this, the players who do not cut and screen Alperen's game, as if it is not enough that he misses shots like crazy, should also be on that bench. The same thing happened in the Nets match and unfortunately, very few people are aware of it.

  7. If you a pelicans or rockets fan you know Jonas and Sengun been battling their last matchups, the vet just absolutely dominated this one. From start to finish. Very promising to see green continues his streak. The question with him still remains consistency. Time will tell
