REALLY high on this player. I think we have a future star in the league. he is a unicorn, a glitch in the matrix. he didn't just meet expectations he excelled beyond them. he has a basketball IQ and natural feel for the game that amazes me from such a young player. I have no doubt he will develope better handles. I'm more concerned with the jump shot. it doesn't have to be all the way out to 3 pt range. Chris Paul proved you can make an impact in the mid range if you become a threat there. he is tall enough to get that shot all day. if he developes that the sky is the limit. I'm with you Jackson this guy deserves an A. Alperen and Jalen may be the front runners to stardom right now, but Amen, Cam and Tari ain't conceeding the race just yet. each has a star quality within their game IMO. the question is can we develope it, and right now the prognosis looks very good.
even if amen stays the way he plays, he is still a great player. Amen and his brother going to be insane for years to come.
Let's goooooo! Been waiting on this one! My favorite player on our team!
Shooting is the one thing that can/should develop! Can't teach height,size,speed... He can be a star!!
We appreciate it!
Ben said “Fuck these Astros” with that outfit lmao 😅
Ben like most Houston sports fan 😅. The stors are having a crappy season now we waiting for the Texans lol
A- like I gave Cam. Little 10 foot jumper can add sooo much to his offense and he never really developed any consistent Little shot. Other than that, Amen is amazing at everything else.
If Sengun develops his 3, him and Amen could be incredibly dynamic in a two man game.
You think your offense was uncreative imagine paying Monty Williams to run the most generic pick and roll offense and a switch everything defense with guards like Sasser and Alec Burks in your rotation
I'm not sure which is higher on Amen, his athleticism or his basketball IQ. I think he will only continue to improve each season of his career.
Amen to me was D+ pg and thats just defense his pg offense need prayer amen but as a sf his year was a A+
It still kills me that we didn’t get the number 1 pick and missed out on Wemby!
Jackson.your grade on amen is not good he injured and not play a lot of games plus he is liability on offense against elite team like spurs coach really expose amen by leaving him.outside but whe he is dunkers spot wemby is on him or zach collins so he score only 5 pts or 4 pts i rembember that game
Np shooting is just like ben simmon 2.0 so his ceiling 8s not high to me
Amen will be a better Westbrook for his ceiling. He just needs a midrange and aggression. Amen should NEVER shoot more than two 3s per game.
Jimmy butler with Westbrook’s athleticism
Top 10 player in the league
I want to see Ausar Thompson playing with his brother Amen in Houston. Amen is a PG, while Ausar is an SG. The #Rockets should trade for Ausar.
I will give him A+ samehing with Cam Whitmore as well
Let amen played his game!!!
A- 🎉🎉🎉
