The Houston Rockets MUST let Alperen Şengün cook!!!

The Houston Rockets MUST let Alperen Şengün cook!!!

Let’s take a look at what happened in last night’s Rockets game Alper shenon had zero points at halftime zero but in the second half he had a lot he went off and this play that shenon pulled off last night he looked like he was Dirk nitzki out there jaff

Step cross over back down spin whirl fade away I know what Ain no way it’s a good call by Ryan Holland there with appropriate too having the same the same thoughts uh sitting on my couch at Chili’s my friends Brad Kyle and me got up made so much noise and

Everyone was like what the what’s going on this is a family restaurant do they have their mortgage on this game I know right like d degenerates gamble on the game but shanon played so well and he’s clearly the best player in the rockets and I’m not a subscriber that every

Single time at the end of a game a team needs to give the ball to its best player IE take a look at what Chicago did at the end of regulation last night where they gave the ball to Demar D rozan who just dribbled out the shot

Clock and then took a I thought like a mediocre fadea away look at the buzzer and he missed it that’s just Demar d rozan he may he makes them he misses them that’s also Sean just basketball where there’s a lot of possessions that end up like that yeah especially with

The game tied it’s like I we don’t need to try to run a play try all this passing and then turn the ball over like let’s just if we miss it’s overtime if we make it we win all that said Sean Alper and shenon in the second half of last night’s game

And in overtime he scored all 25 of his points 25 he was on fire and after that jumper you would think oh the rocket just got to keep feeding him and let him win the game he’s clearly just cooking but then their very next possession shenon gets trapped outside of the key

And he had to give it up there’s like four or five seconds left on the shot clock he he had nothing to do with the ball so he passes it to a wideopen cam Whitmore who’s outside the three-point line who for whatever reason dribbles to his right and inside the three-point

Line and takes the longest two possible old school basketball baby right now he’s a rookie so okay maybe maybe you look the other way on that but then the very next possession Jaylen green decides I’m the best player on the team and goes one on four dribbling through

The lane against uh Zack LaVine at at The Rim ultimately and Zack lavine’s bigger than him so guess what he misses the layup and all it took was that brief little moment for the Bulls to take the game Take the Lead take all the momentum yeah the Bulls just basically after each

One of these misses just bomb a three make right and and they and they would make it I I mean I the worst would have been if Alex Kusa also made the wide open three that he took like that’s the thing the the Rockets all of a sudden

Gave up some wide open looks so look they’re a young team this is not like this is this is not me having a meltdown over what happened I I just hope this is a learning experience for them going forward that you got to give it to

Shenon when he’s hot he is the best player on your team and if that creates shots for other guys great did create one for cam Whitmore there he took a bad one and then Jaylen green did Jaylen green stuff and I mean we’re starting to run out of time

With Jaylen green last night was one of those moments where just that one specific moment pissed me off with green it it it actually made me angry it’s one moment I’m not talking about the totality of the game like he was a disaster the whole game but he was eight of

19 I’m I’m just looking at that moment it was shanon’s time right there and Jaylen green took it away from him so just something to keep in mind going forward I hope the Rockets learn from it

They were doing it on Wednesday night…at least until the last couple of minutes. #Rockets #HoustonRockets #NBA #AleprenSengun
