Most people might think segun moves like Jokic or for some, Sabonis. But I think he resembles more to Pau Gasol especially his post moves, postplaymaking and footwork.

Guys Sengun is not actually Jokic’s offspring…thanks for clarifying!

[–] FuddChud@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

He's not a brute like Joker. You could see in the game yesterday how Sengun avoids contact with Jokers bigger body.

[–] FeatherySquid@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Thanks. Can you also do a post about how “Uncle Jeff” Green isn’t actually the uncle of all these NBA players?

As a passer he absolutely has similar vision to jokic. You don't develop drop bounce passes from the elbows. That kinda passing is innate. But sure as a scorer I can see Pau.

I did after upgrading my pass accuracy to 89

[–] lawrencepeter@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Sengun learned that no jumper one legged fadeaway from a 41yo Dirk

[–] PlayAffectionate5291@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

A Serbian coach actually but yea I bet the coach got it from Dirk. It was an unstoppable shot and still is, why not.

Sengun is a better passer than young pau ever dreamed of being

People have a skewed view of what Pau was

[–] bb1432@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Pau averaged 3.2 APG for his career, with a high of 4.6. That's about on par with Karl Towns.

Tim Duncan averaged 3.0 with a high of 3.9. Timmy was not a great passer.

Kevin Garnett averaged 3.7 with a high of 6.0. Nobody talks about KG as a passer anymore.

Joakim Noah averaged 2.8 with a high of 5.6. People don't think about his passing chops.

Karl Malone averaged 3.6 with a high of 4.7. Anybody ever remember "Malone to Stockton?"

[–] gignac@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Noah was always known as a good passer imo

Holy hell this thread!! OP did not ONCE claim that Sengun was actually related to Jokic. He made a good comparison.

[–] Greedy_Ear_Mike@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Yea, his shot making is more Pau to me, than Jokic. And Jokic is way more physical.

That sweet passing though, kinda like Jokic.

[–] 8v2HokiePokie8v2@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

Jokic is Sengun father?

[–] LoWE11053211@alien.top 1 points 2 years ago

sperm jokic?
