Sure, everybody is entitled to their free will opinion about anything, I mean we have people on this forum who identify people as coloring crayons, which I would imagine you would say they are 100% spot on as well but that is 1000% dogma Now just riddle me this, based on his game film does Amen play more like a Rondo floor general(bigger attack the paint version) or like Jordan/Kobe/Harden shooting guard?
Nowhere close to Kidd or Rondo or even Penny to that matter. People don't understand how many nuances there are playing pg full time. It's not just assist, it's about delivering the ball in shot pockets. Having the ability to read the pnr on the fly along with the backside action is a lot also. I mean Tyreke Evans, MCW, and even Lance Stephenson were considered pg's. I see a wing player who can handle some, kinda like KPJ.

I never considered Evans or Stephenson as a PG no more than thinking Anthony Mason was a PG, MCW would more so be in that mold out of those 3 Amen has those qualities you mention, and I never said he was on the same level of a KIdd/Rondo, I said his floor game is more in that mold but is a bigger athletic type who likes to get into the lane and do what he does And Amen plays more like a Rondo than a KPJ or any other scoring guard you can name Each position has its many nuances, and Amen is more of a PG/PointFoward than the other positions from my lens, if you think otherwise so be it, your free will choice
Mutual, but he may be a hack-a-Amen candidate, so he may not be in late tight games if he doesn't tighten up his j/free throw woes
Great! Thanks for asking. My son is being heavily recruited as the #1 oline in Texas. So We've been doing that circuit. I still pop in from time to time. It looks like the Rockets are trying to get back to respectability
