"Wouldn’t the sea weather be nice?" Sengun wrote after the blowout win. According to Eurohoops, the post was controversial for many because of the use of "sea" in Sengun's statement. Many thought it alluded to the burning of the port city of Smyrna, which is currently known as Izmir, during the Greco-Turkish War in 1922. Sengun issued an apology with a long message on his IG Story. "My post after Greece game was a communication mistake. I have great respect for Greek people. No offense was ever intended," Sengun wrote. Alperen Sengun's IG Story [Credit: IG/@alperen.sengun]The beef between the two players started after the semifinal game. After Turkey defeated Greece to book its berth in the final, Sengun made some comments that didn't sit well with Antetokounmpo."He's not a great passer. He's an amazing player, you know, but he's not a great passer. So we just tried to help and jump to close the paint," Sengun said when asked about Turkey's strategy to hold Antetokounmpo to just 12 points. When Giannis Antetokounmpo was asked about Alperen Sengun's comments, he fired back with his credibility."I'm a guy who doesn't like to talk a lot. You know, I let my game talk," Giannis said. "I'm going to my 13th season in the NBA. I've won everything. Everything."While both players appeared to have squashed their beef and expressed solidarity with each other to send a goodwill message, it's hard not to expect an answer from the Bucks star when he meets the Rockets in the next season.
