Im from Argentina, loyal fan since Scola and Delfino. Every single kid in Turkey is gonna grow as a Rockets fan
yes, confirm!!
İnşallah!
25 years old turkish woman here! Always enjoyed basketball but was never following the nba due to time difference. Thanks to alpi now I am always watching game recaps, sometimes even waking up at 5 am to watch games live, following many houston rockets related podcasters and even joining twitter spaces to listen to what the 'bros' say 😂 you have a really nice community that always teaches me new things and cracks me up😂 thanks for all the excitement and fun😊 rooting for a bright future for alpi & houston, wishing you the best!
I am a 35 years old Turkish man who watched Omer Asik in Bulls, Rockets, Turkoglu (and Howard) in Magic, Gobert in Jazz now I am following Sengun. He is truly special.
Hedo Turkoglu is one of my all-time favorites. --Roosh
Been a rockets fan since 2004 and it feels great to have the excitement back in the building. We should build around Sengun.
Frank's analogy about people saying Sengun might not be the best player on a championship team so we should not prioritize him right now when he is by far the best player is like 2 broke homeless people arguing about the type of Bentley they are going to drive was tremendous man Iaughed out loud spot on.
Yes, bro, on top of that Sengun putting Jokic's year 3 numbers to shame, people can't project forward for ish. Sengun a franchise player who Hakeem himself called special.
Anything other than Sengul-oriented gameplay is merely a hypothesis of impending doom...Also, I've been tuning into numerous Rocket/NBA podcasts lately, and I must say, you two are nailing it. Your analysis is superb, far more insightful than most out there. I had this observation before you even mentioned the argument about whom to build the team around. As you pointed out, Jalen needs to discover his identity. If he can do that, he has the potential to transform into a great player. Self-awareness and understanding one's strengths and weaknesses are essential for personal and professional growth in sports, especially team-sports. And yeah, I forgot to mention, you're funny too. Not every smart person is necessarily funny, but being funny definitely requires intelligence.
I'm a 33 year old Turkish man who has been watching the NBA since middle school and the Rockets was 'THE' team that I never supported. Right now I consider myself a diehard Rockets fan that's dreaming about seeing Houston one day.
Come visit and you will be welcomed. Houston attracts people from around the world, which has resulted in an incredible food scene.
I can help you with a tourist visa
@@WestLegalGroupdotcom In Türkiye flight to Usa costs too much the only problem isnt visa 😅
@@sketer2tymez
Grow up!
Bring me a Doner kahbab when you do
Yo that bentley and house analogy was fucking perfect in so many ways
Tillman hugging Alperen was really funny. I saw the video, he just didn’t want to let Al P go 😂😂😂
I like that you touched on the global exposure and how the rockets should tap into the turkish fanbase. Im nigerian as well an hakeem was the reason i knew about the rockets when i was younger, i latched on when yao ming and t mac were playing just because id never seen a chinese player let alone a 7’ 6 one. Tapping into the international bball community can does so much for a franchise. Nobody in nigeria would know what the fuck a buck is if it werent for Giannis, now they buying fear the deer merch 😂
Great Pod. The 2 of you have developed a unique chemistry and ability to deliver great insight. I'm impressed. The homeless, bentley comment was off the chain. Lol funny. I... like you was impressed with Udoka's comments. I have no doubt we have the right coach. I agree with you Frank. Everyone seems to think all is lost this season, but there is still much to play for. I think the biggest thing we will have gained by season''s end is we will have a pretty good idea what we have talent wise. Having Udoka as coach has exposed some and elavated others, however at least we now know what we're working with. I also agree who the Rockets should be building around is an easy call at this point. Sengun is clearly our best player at this point. I still believe Jaylen and Jabari are our biggest disapointments
Thank you, Samuel!
I like you guys how objectively stating the facts.
That’s what we aim to do. Appreciate the feedback. -Roosh
I like how you both are well speakers and good listeners at the same time. So much manner and İQ. Really like to watch your videos together
We appreciate you listening! --Roosh
Next level content!!!
Can’t say enough about this new colab
Much love thanks for listening! -Roosh
My man's got the mic! Good stuff hahahaha
Had to do it. Bullying works. Lol. --Roosh
Great talk! The direction for the Rockets should be nothing but building around Alpi. They have a diamond in their hands which they should use and not give away. It would be the dumbest thing for the Rockets to not consider him as a franchise player.
phenomenal chemistry and content between the two of you
My favorite duo. Very good content. I'm here for the Cam experience. Let's ride.
We appreciate you! -Roosh
What I don't understand is why everyone thinks Alpi is a sure thing for the Rockets. If not this year, next year they will be in the playoffs. He has a maximum of 2 years left then he will be 23 and free. There are a lot of mothers with beautiful daughters out there with a lot of money.
This was one of the best vids ever guys - keep it up. Here's what I got out of it - - - Stone & Jalen are in the same spot. Their fates are tied together. If they don't show us something soon they are at best moving into the background. If they don't get it done soon they are history. If not the Rockets are a waste of my time.
Tillman being at that spurs game seeing sengun go off…”pray for Victor” had a whole different meaning that night
This is Realtalk, thanks for you telling us the truth and being honest, qualty of this talk is Triple A , thank you guys.
Seems like it’s taken back office way too long to recognize the skills and potential of Sengun
Thank you both
Good episode. Keep it coming.
Thank you, Robert! --Roosh
Ironically when Roosh was talking about a guy that can score 15/16 points that can shoot 12 shots I thought about Grayson Allen 😅. The dude a free agent but he having a career year so a lot of teams are going to go after him so might be hard to get him.
I know he has the reputation as a dirty player but at this point we need shooting regarding his reputation.
But regardless this was a great video fellas. I do agree the rockets need to pick a direction on what they wanted to do if they want to build around Sengun get shooters. If you want a guard centric offense you trade Sengun and Jalen Green. Go all in on like Trae Young or Mitchell and get a rim running big and do that.
This summer is huge for Stone he has to figure out a direction and he has to fix and improve this roster. If he can’t do that then he pretty much gone after next year
This team probably has 5 more wins with Grayson Allen at SG.
Loving this Podcast. I'm a fan.
Feed Sengun all game he should be getting 20 shots a game Atleast
Not necessary. He is a high IQ guy. Those guy could care less if they get their shots. With such high feel, making the correct pass/basketball play usually matters more to those type of dudes.
@@hobowithagun24we’re a different team when Sengun looking to be aggressive
Cant feed him all game long, this isnt the 90's style baskteball, we still would loose cause the other team will be scoring 3's to our 2's
@@djmill8000k ı agree you on one point 3’s he must develope that skill …. That’s a side tell me, who else is other than him is 3 point shooters tell me … ı cant watch his games but 😮what ı have seen through the clips there are all Players throwing bricks you can’t blame him only.
@@djmill8000 wow your math skills are impressive
Super Great show guys. Keeping it real and actually caring
Yessir! -Roosh
Good show fellas
I would send Jalen and Jabari to a European basketball camp to teach them basketball fundamentals in this summer. Their laid back attitude is intolerable. Who shoot 1/10 3 points?
Yeah 2 months going to Europe will change 15+ years cmon now bro use your head 😂
So teach other SuperStar who shots worst than That... maybe you just focus on Jaleen green that much.. you Are his Avid Fan.. ❤
@@Lezahfire I get you bro, but one is a "Shooting" guard and 1 is a center you are comparing lmao
@@Goldenhand31 yeah Center who cannot lead to be the 1st Rim protector and in Defense...
Jabari has no laid back attitude. He is very aggressive rebounder. He hustles. He’s a good teammate. Stays out of trouble.
Your most sincere video ever. Great. I even start to like Roosh :)
Rockets fan since 1998! We will return to Houston Rockets Championship basketball!
Lakers got a difficult schedule ahead of them. If the Rockets win all but three games, I’m confident we take the 10 spot.
Honestly Sengun trade urself.. after hearing rockets management someone said oh we got hopes for amen and cam Sengun is not player we gonna invest... that does it... last year bruno fernando or whatdeave this is 38 year old lopez...mistrust is immense... Sengun it is time to move u deserve some respect .. leave them with their guard base dream hole.... !!!
Ur an idiot Sengun loves it here he’s not gonna leave
Frank, I know how much you love Udoka...Have you ever considered that he would not have come to Houston if he thought Stone was a poor GM and thought that the young players, the cap and future draft capitol situations that Stone had in place would lead to a bad future? He would have passed on the Rockets. Oh yeah, who hired Udoka?
Lately, your being more positive and that is a good thing. Remember that all of the 6 young players are younger than Hakeem (22) and Yao (22) when they were drafted. These guy were 18, 19 & 20 years old...they are babies in the NBA.
That center might be Ömer Faruk from Utah Jazz. The dude is a solid defender, has silky hands around the rim, great post player, has 3 point shooting, good blocker, great rebounding, good fundementals. Don't look at the fact that he is no:3 in JAZZ centers, he could't get a solid spot up to now due to the fact that he was undrafted and came from G-legue. Remember the stretch he had in Miami when Bam injured. Dude needs minutes. If he gets Landale minutes he is exactly what Sengun is not. Another positive side is they play together in Turkish national team and he is extremely cheap for that quality.
At what year are we expecting amen to become a avg shooter , how long does he get
What do you mean how long does he get? He probably never shoots average from 3. If he does he is an mvp candidate. He is an elite defender as a rookie. He always contributes on the court so he gets until he wants to leave or he is part of a trade for an mvp calibre player. The boy is top class.
@@y2jt585 I mean have you seen the last 5 games , he’s been totally taken out of the offense , they just leaving him wide open from mid range and 3, he looks like huge liability when they do that
How to beat the Rockets: make sure Jalen Green gets main character syndrome. How to get beat by the Rockets: make sure Alperen Sengun gets main character syndrome.
So jalen was main character in the wins against phoenix and blazers wins... Oh dont forget the wins rockets had last year against sixers, lakers and bucks😂
Udoma seems to be a great defensive coach but he sucks at offense.
The team not even complete yet. We got a bunch of pieces that don't fit. Udoka ranked 7th in offense the season he had with Boston and it even took them some time to get it together
💯
Get him some shooters and playable players unlike holiday,Tate and jock 3rd stringers
I am still missing dj””wnbe”mill800 and his wisdom 😂😂😂
Did we turn a corner? Can we go 4/0 next 4 games mostly against weak teams BUT on the road!?
We’re not going 4-0
My personal expectation is 1/3. Portland or San Antonio win.
@@erdemm17 yea that’s more realistic
Why Amen move gotta be ugly though? I think it’s clean he did that move against that dude from the Mavs.. had him lost😂
🤘🏾
A L P İ 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
OMG you guys really think that the Rockets' don't know what they have in Sengun? NEW FLASH...he was a MVP in a quality pro league at age 18 and his footwork was obvious generational at that age. Why do you think Stone gave up two 1st round picks to get him? You really think Jackson is some great insider? gezzz...gawd clueless. Just because if Lopez was on the team doesn't mean Sengun would be sitting on the bench. 2 games and now you guys are sold on Sengun...talk about lack of understanding. Sengun is and has been growing into a superstar NBA center that will rival Hakeem as the Rockets' GOAT. He is still younger than Hakeem as a rookie.
Oh BTW, Sengun was already getting love from many of the star Ex and current NBA players before this season.
facts!
@@MrKarapasa Here are some facts for you...of all the Rockets' center that have come and go since Hakeem retired there are few that he personally worked with and then shares the videos online. You can now see some of Hakeem's footwork improvements, misdirection shooting and hook move in the post in Sengun's game. On defense Sengun's shot blocking & rebounding positioning along with more active hands has Hakeem written all over it. The Rockets' would not be investing the money to pay Hakeem and Hakeem would not waste his time if they didn't know what kind of player they have in Sengun.
Within NBA circles Sengun is and has been highly praised...Don't you think that these HOFer and current stars NBA players know more about NBA basketball then me or you?...including Frank and the national media that he is so giddy over that they are now starting to give Sengun and the Rockets some love.
All Hail Stone
@@MrKarapasa If you have been visiting this channel then you will know that I have listed many many facts stating how good the Rockets are doing in their total forced rebuild.
@@NOJSIP NO, i believe in Lezafire and djmill under youtube comments. pls dont try to convince me!
@@MrKarapasa NP...you said Facts. Don't do a hit and run and you will not get a reply.
is Gatlin walking back his houston brass aint that high on sengun comment?---his squirming out of this one
Roosh finally got a cut and shaved
Excellent attention to detail. I was getting scruffy. Had to clean up. -Roosh
Alperenin iyi ve istikrarlı şutörleri olan bir takıma gitmesi gerek. Ona ve potansiyeline saygı duymayan takım arkadaşlarıyla ilerlemesi zor.
You’re equating a subset of fans weird opinions with the team.. ? I have never heard ime or jalen or Fred say anything negative about Alp..
Alperen ve Jalen birbirlerine ve yeteneklerine saygı duyarsa, topun Alperenden dağıldığı senaryoda daha verimli okacağını kabul ederse, Houston bir iki seneye en önemli şampiyonluk adayı olur. Ama bu isimler elit sporcular ve egolarının yüksek olması doğal. Bunu bu yaşlarında çözebilmelerini bekkemek bence fazla iyimser bir talep olur.
Rockets run very few DHos… JG is one of the best in the NBA running DHos… The offense should be more Princeton, less pick and roll.
Jalen left/gave up school.. school/education was too hard for him!
@@MrKarapasahe is a Smart kid. I tell you, he is Smart kid, he is an Artist person.
@@Lezahfire yoooo, why u take this so serious man.. didnt say he aint smart.. chill!
@@MrKarapasa go ahead justify your beautiful comments towards a person you do not know who he is. You Are too Serious attacking....
@@Lezahfire why u give up school and get educated? = im an artist :)
Alperen plays in a team that cannot shoot. Even with "completely open" three-point shots, the team can't make a shot. Apart from Alperen, the team is breaking the assist spending record. Comments and perspectives such as "Young team, we need some time, it will get better" are extremely wrong. Houston Rockets need to make this decision: "Are we going to build a team around ALPEREN, or are we going to wait for the young guys to develop?" ... THOMPSON, who is considered the best among young players, has a three-point percentage of 14... But he has a game without the ball. He's trying. Jabari Smith thinks he's an incredible shooter. He waits where he is on the field. He is neither a good shooter nor a player without the ball... The team cannot make "completely empty three-pointer shots".Jalen Green; His three-point percentage was 20.6 percent until yesterday's match... And he still continues to attempt three-point shots, as long as don't take him to the bench. He made over 50 percent three-pointers in just 10 games. Either ice or flame. But in those 10 games, the ROCKETS only won 5. In all five of these matches, ROCKETS won the home game. The teams they beat were Pistons, Hornets, Suns, Lakers, and Sacramento. The interesting thing is that while beating these teams, all of the teams were missing important players. In other words, they have not beaten any team as a full squad. Houston Rockets, needs to take action to find the right pieces around Alperen. HOUSTON manager sat out trade season. The PLAYOFFs ran away. My personal opinion, ALPEREN should meet with his manager and go to a good team
hou needs to build around sengun.. jgreen is too inconsisent plus these last games do not reflect reality; jgreen has a great performance at the end of season so what? def not trustable
you guys pissed at Jackson? yea me either, he's pretty boring
Ill take Amen every day, and twice on Sundays.. Although Sengun tries on defense, I cant build around a BIG that i have to play 30 plus minutes, and gives up at the rim points 65%... And he's my Big Man? Cant win like that, especially a championship..
I like Amen a lot but building around Sengun is easier than building around Amen technically
@@KapKaradut how so?
U cant built around a role player who is great on defense but only knows how to dunk😂 amen never developed a perimeter shot in hs and will just be a better version of ben simmons😂😂
@@betfonte3366 but you rather build around a Center who can't shoot on a consistent level, and can't protect the paint? At least with Amen I'm getting all class Defense, can start fast breaks, he provides everything Sengun does on offense as far as the area they score the most plus he not dependent on a pick and roll to get the ball. Amen can be more closer to Gianni's than by the way they score and can't shoot vs Sengun can be closer to Jokic...
@@djmill8000 1. I am a jalen green fan 2. Sengun is a franchise player like green cuz they r offensive powerhouses. 3. Other franchise players are not good defenders like joker or curry or luca. 4. Was there ever a frachise player aside from giannis who was a great defender but only knows how to dunk and layup? 5. U cant make a player a good perimeter shooter if they never had it in their arsenal to begin with, otherwise this league will all have very good shooters.. The only chance amen will be a franchise player is if he grows as big and tall as the greek freak and plays like him too🤣
