    Im not surprised. He’s actually shooting worse than last season percentage wise. Granted, the sample size is small.

    Right now, it's likely mental. Amen needs to rely on muscle memory from his summer training, and let it fly. Don't overthink.

    The main issue I see with Amen this season is that he's not shooting as well as last season, either at the rim or from three. I suspect it's just a combination of bad luck + maybe some mental stuff going on from having to deal with learning to play point guard and his confidence being a little shaken because it's been a bit bumpy.

    I think he will start shooting better in general. Whether that happens because he adjusts to the point guard position or is moved off the position after we make a trade, I don't know at this stage. Could go either way.

    He's too talented for this to be more than a slump though.

    career 33% Amen can do that. Feels like Marion only hit 3's against the rockets.

    It's the most difficult time in the NBA is that you are playing game in the away when you lead by 20 because refs think they have to dominate game to bring game back tight.
    It's really disgusting and that is why I enjoyed so much at Europe Cup in the summer

    All this Amen slander...We are 13 games in and he is being asked to be the PG of a team with championship aspirations after not ever playing PG. Imagine getting a promotion to some C-suite level position at your job after being a junior associate, then being expected to have it all figured out in a few weeks?? Shameful fandom from y'all.

    And btw he had 12-6-9 tonight with 5 steals. smh

    33% seems a long way off right now though. He’s around 21% :(

    i want reed to play. I love Holiday though. I'm a fan of the the twin gnome lineup. without holiday, missing Tari and DFS would be a disaster.

    That Raptors win in Toronto is aging nicely. They're now 10-5 with some wins over good teams.

    Just seems out of place. Like having a guy critique fashion on a show without a lisp... it would be unusual and be a distraction to their audience.

    Agreed that’s why he was the first one mentioned in tier 2

    Team is 10-3 with the #1 offense in the league, Sengun an MVP candidate, KD looking spry, Reed looking like the best shooter in the league and Amen finally commanding the team.

    Im chilling bro.
