Its obvious but the rebounding is huge for the rockets.
Wtf is a Tam?
Dudes still can't pronounce his name right. Who is "Sing-gun"?
He played with first ballot HOF's but Sengun is probably the best player he's played with that is complementary to his game (in that way). Dare I say best duo in the game because of their unique skill sets?
If they can stay healthy, they can do anything. After the games against Denver, GSW and Lakers, we can predict more accurate about the future.
“I can promise you we tried” sorry just can’t get it out my head 😭
KD said that Sengun is the best bigs he's played with NOT the best player.
His name is pronounced "Shen-goon" Anyways, Go Rockets!!!
KD, Sengun, Reed. The new big 3!
i think KD is enjoying the luxury of not having to be the only main man on offense.
and i think this Rox team is not just KD's or Alpi's alone. I'd argue that so far this season, this is both of their team.
and I really like seeing this dynamic. it's all a team effort for sure.
Chemistry was already there, all they needed was a player who can give you 20-25points.
KD was the missing piece and Reed is finding his place real quick.
Good to see tall slow basketball make a come back 💪🏽💪🏽
Former Rockets legends talking about future Rockets legends. Ah-maze-ing!
Al P is only 23 years old
Can yall please say his name right! Its not cingun, its Shengun! I can tell yall dont watch the rockets! And Sengun has been that dude since he came into the league at 18
Two things:
1) Analysts can't pronounce the "shh" sound apparently. SHEN-GOON not SIN-GOON.
2) Don't act like you CAN'T talk about the Rockets just because OKC and Spurs exist. You can talk about more than two things.
Sengun is definitely the second best player kd has played with. You can tell by the way they play. Durant didnt have this chemistry with harden and kyrie , or even Russ
chandler parsons, glad to see you
This team is the best for old KD.
1. Great defenders. Can rest while defending.
2. Players full of energy and consistency. Can rest at bench.
3. Team can generate own offence. More open shots.
4. Young and looking up to KD. He is the big brother.
5. Longer legacy even after retirement. His name will continue to live with these young talents .
And KD is the best fit.
1. Great finisher.
2. Great experience.
3. Great leader when needed.
4. No ego.
5. Did I said great finisher?
kd never get played with a great center that what he lacks in his career. With gsw team it’s all balance. But with rockets a legit center and good scoring and passer. Wow!
Yeah they are a good duo inside and outside, they also swap the roles, 2 big guys who can dribble and shoot.. Alpi just need to get even better with 3 shooting and that is a recipe for conference and nba finals
Kd and his people looked into this. They knew what they were going for. Two great players looking for a dub.
Phoenix had no defense. KD loves this. it is so true. The defense fuels the offense here.
9 in a row dummy
KD sharp shooter Şengün young monster 🔥💪
ŞENGÜNNN my favorite
European players own the nba ,luka,jokic,sengun,
1:14 i tot he said clit thats why he corrected himself😂🤣 it was click😂🤣
Chandler parson was one hit wonder and now he some kinda expert
Not only is this team very versatile, but Alperen Sengun is the most versatile center i have seen. I think last year people tried to force a nickname on Alpi but none of them really made sense. I suggest "The big versatile". Because that is actually what he is. And he keeps learning and still adding more to his arsenal. To have KD, Amen and Alpi is amazing. I love seeing them play together.
Houston Rockets 🚀 ☄️☄️☄️☄️☄️
Why did she ask that question second best he's not that good yet
Love that duo Parsons and williams than every other duo in NBA :))
Young Reed a killa
Şengün is dream duo for all players rn. He is most versatile, most flexible player ever. He is better at def, dirty works, energy than lebron. Even jokic is not that dimensional. Alpi is at least 8/10 in all aspects.
Just like basketball players themselves .most of these comments r 90% kinda fans
This is a dope show
KD and Thompson are great Dou they understand each other very well…🇿🇦🫶🏾
In the future we will realize how much talent this team had. I hope they don’t become what OKC used to be, and can keep the team together
You guys should wait for vanvlet’s return.
"Houston started the season 0 -2 and then they started to doubt" …Who started to doubt. The Rockets lost to the Pistons and the Thunder (and took them to double overtime). Dumb, sensationalism journalism.
Kd driving the bus for the first time his career
3:40 THIS is why we’ve begun to hate traditional NBA media. She knows EXACTLY what she was doing asking if Sengun was KD’s best running mate! Trying to slight Russell Westbrook! Which is why Lou Will immediately said we’re not doing that!
