    In many ways, Amen is like the anti-Harden. Non-ball dominant. Incredible defense. Efficient without relying on 3s and FTs. Ice in his veins.

    Dude was the best player on the floor tonight against the defending champs at age 21 and drilled the game winner. He’s different

    I'm sure it's already been said. Many times.

    But under no circumstances does Amen ever come off the bench from this point forward.

    Every rebuilding franchise hopes to get a guy *this* good. With *this* type of ceiling.

    We have him.

    I have to issue another apology. (First was to Jalen.) I said if he’s a 6’7 Westbrook (with no shot), I’m out (on him).

    I’m sorry Ameiz XLNC "Amen" Thompson!

    I was wrong! Again! (And again and again) I’m an idiot! What do you want me to tell you?!

    Sorry Amen.

    I've asked before, but what the hell is Amen's ceiling??? Before tonight, I thought he would be the type to stuff the stat sheet but not necessarily lead us in scoring. But maybe that too??? I have no clue.
