Premium Member Peoriabird Posted October 12, 2006 Premium Member Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 0 points 1 rebound 0-2 free throws 2 fouls 2 turnovers 0 blocks 0 steals in 12 minutes Now this can't be the guy that you been blabbing you mouth about for 2 weeks. Maybe this will shut you up for awhile and make you realized that the grass isn't always greener on the other side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joannes3000 Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 I'm sure there will be a retort along the lines of this being just the first game of a meaningless preseason. In all honesty though, I tried to get through all the Sene vs Shelden debate objectively, but in the end there was just too much complaining going on. I'm fully expecting more of the same since Sene put up forgettable numbers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesheedera Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 It will be a LONG time before Sene reaches his potential if he ever does. To me he's the kind of guy you take a flier on once his first team gives up a few years down the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't care how many of SW's turnovers were offensive fouls. A turnover is a turnover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators AHF Posted October 12, 2006 Moderators Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 This is way too small a sample size for any meaningful comparison. It would be just as meaningless to say Sene is better than Shelden if Sene had 5 blocks, 14 points and 12 rebounds in his first preseason action. You need more time to tell, especially for a young guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This thread was an ass showing by people who aren't willing to let their opinions stand the objective test of a season. We all should know that SW won't be as good as Foye or Roy this year. He shouldn't be as good as Sene in 3 but I'm willing to compare them even now over a season. Of course, 12 minutes makes a few peons wet their pants with excitement.

DJlaysitup Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 Oh c'mon Walter...if SW had stunk last night and Sene had 5 blocks you'd be crowing like a banty rooster today. Truth is, many of us were for taking SW over a guy like O'Bryant due to his greater experience and his having played against superior competition (ACC vs MVC). It's starting to look like we were right. ...to be fair though, O'Bryant is a grizzled veteran of the basketball wars compared to Sene, who hasn't even gotten through boot camp.

If Sene had done that with just 3 years basketball experience it would have been even more shocking than Rajon's 29 point explosion. It's certainly another thing to boast about the most NBA ready player vs the NBA's least experienced prospect. I don't see anyone claiming SW will be better in 3 years, just that he was for the first 12 minutes off their careers. I can sign a FA for that.

Otherwise tone you sh_t down!!!!!!! ...player in the first 12 minutes of preseason, the first game, the first month, the first year?!? WHEN?!? I haven't even "guaranteed" he ever will be, but I do believe he will in 3 years and I believe that even if he and SW are just equal, his value as a center to us would be much greater than a Pf. But of course, 12 minutes into a career for the least experienced prospect in the NBA, you've got me on the defensive. ROLL EYES! W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Final_quest Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 All I have to say is that you will rue the day you challenged with per 48s. I'm better than you! Anyone that thinks they can beat me, be ready! You think it's a coincidence that Shelden played better after you challenged me? I can tell already that you don't have what it takes.

Guest Walter Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 Can you put SW on the rack to improve his standing reach? Maybe lifts in his shoes? Maybe a JR flat top too? Anything to make your "comedy" worth it. W Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
