    Tate and Amen cannot be on the floor at the same time, there's just no spacing.

    Whitmore should be taking the minutes.

    Also if we're playing Amen then why does Green keep playing the point..

    Jalen Green literally blows up any possible continuity in the offense.

    Jalen cannot run a fast break and apparently cannot pass it fast enough when they get the ball back and have a 3-on-1.

    Not impressed with Ime’s handling of PG duties and who he puts on the floor alongside the ball handler.

    If Amen is playing off guard, replace him with Cam. This is getting ridiculous now, Ime

    You know it’s bad when the FO asks the Tv announcers to play up Jalen’s rebounding

    Tate isn’t good enough to be as big of an offensive liability as he is.

    Y’all really told me Jalen Green’s “playmaking” was “vastly improved”

    Sengun needs to take that shot when he is so close to the bucket. Unselfish is a good trait, but too unselfish becomes passive.

    This is a horrible lineup. Take Tate and Green out of the game. Why play Amen if he’s not allowed to play PG? And he playing with all of these non shooters. Wtf is up Ime?

    Amen creates open looks for himself because teams back off him but he's too afraid to shoot.

    Every minute on offense - ouch.

    Tate shouldn’t ever play. We need a real backup Pg.

    amen should play the g league all year.

    It makes sense if you are setting up a trade. One to give Tate minutes and two to attempt to hide Cam.
