Yup I thought this was one of Cam's best defensive games that I can recall.

 

That was fun to watch.

 

Growth !!!

 

An athletic 2 way backup center who loves fast pace !

 

Bruno Fernando is a FA! We could even scoop up Stephen Silas!

 

Love the confidence. In all offense mentality, not many young players these days make defense their moat.

 

Amen has a clutch gene too. There was no doubt in my mind he was gonna sink those last two free throws.

 

We have to hit our free throws, stop fouling so much and Amen really needs to work on his handles in transition. Loses it too quickly.

But this was some win!!! When Green hits and he gets hot, he just has this confidence and swagger, love to see it. Sengun is really not producing as much as he should. Hope to have them click at the same time soon.

 

Amen Thompson should start when Jabari gets back.
We are so much better when he does. If you want Jabari starting, that is fine because Brooks can come off the bench. Amen is better at nearly everything than Brooks (except threes)
Amen as a starter
17.0ppg
10.8rpg
3.0apg
1.9bpg
1.6spg
59 percent shooting
36 mins

 

Brooks just can't jump like Amen and is in trouble if someone is quick. He would be a great 6th man

 

Only just getting to watch the replay now and holy cow these refs are assholes

 

Desmond Bane is a jackass

 

Who starts doesnt really matter, Brooks, Jabari and FVV can start cuz they are the seniors compared to Amen.

What matters is minutes played after 5 mins you can bench DB and whoever else is stinking it up and put in terror twins+Cam

 

Love it, mayne. They're having fun playing basketball together you just love to see it. Esp after the Wall tank commander years.


Great dub

 

BEST W OF THE SEASON GIMME A HELL YEAH

 

I bet practice battles are epic. Steel sharpens steel.

 

Down by 12 with eight minutes to go. Last year we probably lose this game by about eight points. Two years ago we lose this game by 20.

It’s incredible to see the plan actually coming together. Watching Green turn the corner and seeing Amen blossom into a superstar is worth all the bad years.

I used to pray for times like this

 

Not done yet amigo! Let's get this ssshhmmmoonnneeeyyyy (& ship!)

 

Yes, but would love to have him on my team.

 

This has been disproven. Amen starting is the catalyst that unlocks Green. Green's hot streak last year also coincided with Amen's insertion into the starting line-up. Amen needs to playing with and against the best players. In today's NBA, you don't bring superstars off the bench.
