    He's looking pretty bad. But young guards usually take some time, and it's hard to find a rhythm with so few minutes played.

    If they're going to keep restricting his minutes so heavily, he should definitely be in the G-League so he can get some run and enough time to legitimately work on things in game action.

    I need Reed in the G-League running the show. He needs to stay active. And get in rhythm. There’s no way he’s this bad.

    People legit were talking about how quickly he could get in and take over for Fred. He's a project.

    Not necessarily but taking over is overblown.

    I would say he adds the surprise element of a tall wing playmaker with enormous speed......

    The thing he misses probably controlling the pace and deceleration at times.....but okay at this point.

    He probably already throwing better lobs than lob Freddie.....

    I hope his handles improve because that is when opposing guards cannot pick his pockets.

    Who does Amen remind you of? I can’t figure it out.


    Maybe he’s the new Draymond Green—Draymond isn’t much of a shooter but passes well. Similarly, whenever Amen plays and the game is focused on him, he seems to be the anchor, much like Draymond.


    Amen also reminds me of Andrei Kirilenko (AK-47), just without the 3 point shooting. Kirilenko passed exceptionally well, played phenomenal defense, and had the height and build to dominate. When the offense ran through him, he was a great asset for the Jazz.


    Who else do you think Amen reminds you of?

    More athletic, less-assertive Jimmy Butler
