Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 17/07/2025Expand upon that. What are his weaknesses that make him not a great player? 000
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 16/07/2025Caitlin Clark, Angel Reese, Paige Bueckers, Brittney Griner, A’ja Wilson, Sabrina Ionescu, Breanna Stewart, Kelsey Plum, Aliyah Boston… Coco Gauff 😅 000
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 15/07/2025Imagine if he got injured during the playoffs. The PTSD would hit like a bad trip. 020
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 14/07/2025KD is 6’11” and the image puts Jokic in that spot 100
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 12/07/2025Nice to see him play w/ confidence. He didn’t hesitate like last year he just let em rip. My fave was one of his misses… the 3pt shot attempt when he was trapped in the corner with no help & the shot clock winding down. Threw up a contested turnaround prayer that ALMOST went in. 😅 120

Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 12/07/2025Also worth mentioning KD plays the same position as Dillon, who happened to be the starter to upgrade, and that this all occurred after Dillon had already served his purpose as a Rocket by helping to instill a toughness culture. Also worth noting that Jalen’s salary + Dillon’s matched KD’s. 110
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 06/07/2025It’s the difference between trading draft rights and an actual contract. Draft rights have no salary yet, and therefore no cap hit. If the rookies had already inked their deals, their salaries would count. 020
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 05/07/2025NAW was the biggest free agent prize & KD was already traded. The East is open for biz after Hali’s injury & Boston’s fire sale. They could’ve gotten a lot for Giannis & started a strong rebuild. Instead they went all-in, will come up short, and still lose Giannis w/ Dame’s $22.5m eating them alive. 010
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 05/07/2025I was meaning that from more of a longterm perspective. The decision to waive & stretch Dame, stretching his salary across 5 seasons at $22.5m is a wild way to artificially cap the ceiling of your team for a significant period of time. Trading Giannis for a haul would’ve been a better move. 110
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 04/07/2025I think you could go ahead and add the Bucks to the losers list tbh 110
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 02/07/2025For frame of reference, the season when the salary cap was $70m was when LeBron’s Cavs beat unanimous MVP Steph’s Warriors in 7 games. All ten of the MVP candidates from that 2015-2016 season are still in the league today. Steph Kawhi LeBron Russ KD CP3 Draymond Dame Harden Lowry 110
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 02/07/2025SGA’s $285m/4yr contract is an AAV of $71.25m. The salary cap in 2015 was $70m. #NBAskymedia.tenor.coma basketball player wearing a blue shirt that says thunder is running on the court .ALT: a basketball player wearing a blue shirt that says thunder is running on the court . 150
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 01/07/2025This is one of the saddest parts of trading Jalen Green haha. I’ll have something ready soon. Gotta chew on this one. I’m open to suggestions too lol. 320
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 30/06/2025NAW is my #1 target in free agency for the Rockets. I wonder if it’s possible to get both him & DFS. Methinks probably not, but I’m no capologist. 020

Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 30/06/2025He’s shown nice year over year improvement over his rookie contract, and he’s still barely 22 years old. There are rookies who haven’t played a single NBA game who are older than him. 110
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 29/06/2025Never thought I would say this but lowkey masterclass by Charlotte gaining two draft picks and a useful rotation piece by flipping a bad player in less than half a season 010
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 29/06/2025Out of curiosity, where do you define the cut-off age for a “young piece”? 26? 100
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 29/06/2025You post this like once a week. Stop it. Time to get some new material. 000

Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 28/06/2025How do you think it will work positionally? Is it Harper at the 1, Fox at the 2, and Castle at the 3? 110
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 27/06/2025I was doing cap math & it seems like if we trade Cam for future draft capital, keep Nate Williams contract, bring back Holiday, Tate & Unc on vet min deals, we could access the full $14.1m NT-MLE to bring in a rotation SG like Ty Jerome. But that’s still just 13 contracts so we need at least 1 more. 010
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 27/06/2025Suns return for KD ends up being Jalen Green, Dillon Brooks, Khaman Maluach, Rasheer Fleming, and two future 2nds. Honestly that could wind up being a decent haul. #Rockets 020
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 26/06/2025Never really could manage to crack the rotation 010
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 26/06/2025Is it really not that the deal is not “official”? I wonder if it’s more like they have an executed contract with an effective date of July 6th. 000
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 26/06/2025It’s an unhealthy obsession so you’re better off lol 010
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 26/06/2025So interesting that in another universe where the KD trade doesn’t happen Maluach would’ve fallen to Houston at 10 #Rockets 030
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 25/06/2025It will technically be the Rockets picking on behalf of the Suns. The trade doesn’t become official until July 6, so it will actually be the Rockets on the clock. 130
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 24/06/2025If Houston refused to include Tari & Jabari in a trade for KD, they’re arguably not available under any reasonable circumstances. Also the 10th pick was traded to Phoenix as part of the deal that landed KD in Houston. 010
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 24/06/2025Fred already got paid the loser tax. Now he’s on a contender & his mkt value is probably closer to $25m. Hope he’s willing to play competitive ball now on a fair deal. 2+1 for $70m on descending salary starting from $25m seems perfectly fair imo. Dunno if that figure maximizes MLE access, though. 010
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 24/06/2025Hope we at least hang onto Aaron. He’s come up big for us at times & I think we might regret not picking up his option or otherwise renegotiating to keep him rostered. I hope Jock’s ok w/ kicking the can down the road from June 29 like FVV did. He should be among the last deals to consider. 110
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 24/06/2025What is the number for Fred that accomplishes that? I haven’t done the math on it. 110
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 23/06/2025Cuz of the foul-baiting. He’s talented enough to play straight-up basketball but chooses instead to constantly look to draw contact rather than just going for the open look. Flopping is bad for the league and he gets away with it the most. 100
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 23/06/2025Obi Toppin is like an automatic turnover machine smh #NBAsky 010
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 23/06/2025I would LOVE for the refs to call SGA for a flop. #NBAsky 250
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 23/06/2025That’s kinda crazy they had Jacquez untouchable haha 000
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 23/06/2025I think Tari makes more sense in the starting lineup beside KD 000
Jalperen Sengreen 🚀 @benchptschamp.bsky.social · 23/06/2025They’re definitely gonna need his passing to get good looks against this defense especially with Hali out. Hope he can deliver. TJ can help set the table but they’ve gotta get the extra pass to create offense consistently enough to win. 000
