He has to be on the court. I don't see how you justify giving Green, Dillon or Jabari more minutes at this point.
I'll replace Jabari with FVV Jabari significantly improved his 3pt and overall shooting after just 1 year
Super excited that we are getting close to real basketball. The summer doldrums are over. I expect growth from all the young core - especially Amen. Tough to find minutes for everyone, but Amen should be at the front of the line.
Apples to oranges, Jabari actually spaced the floor pretty well last year with all things considered, Amen cannot play this role
Look, do we have another SG on the roster that can hit over 35% from 3 that can come away with points on over 70% of his drives? If not we HAVE to play a 34% 3 point shooter at SG. Oh wait, Cam did that his rookie season, so maybe we don't need Jalen unless he drastically improves
I love Cam, but he cannot emulate what Jalen does right now as far as penetration. And I mean that about basketball and Josh Christopher. I thought fell Cam fell off shooting a bit at the end of the year and my concerns were compounded because in the summer league it almost looks like he was tweaking it shooting form. It looked different and off. I also didn’t come away from the summer league with a positive impression about his development in his decision-making. I think it’s hard to judge because in summer league he is the man. So who knows. Let’s give Jalen 40 games And then see where we’re at.
Man, it's the deepest darkest portion of the offseason and I know when I come in here that good content/posts are going to be at a minimum, but can we at least quit making every single thread in here about Jalen Green? Bobby. We get it. You think he sucks (and maybe he does). Mathloom and fchowd. We get it. You think he's good (and maybe he is). But can we keep this debate largely to threads that are about Jalen Green or at least specifically about our rotation? This one is about Amen and his position. I THINK AMEN THOMPSON CAN PLAY ANY POSITION ON THE COURT PROVIDED THAT YOU DON'T NEED SHOOTING FROM THAT POSITION.
I'm going to purposefully turn any thread to a Jalen Green spamming thread if someone wants to do a drive by attack on Green like saying Amen needs to have more minutes than Green immediately. Hell ya. I'll bring up the fact that our offense would take major that if that happened. Don't do drive bys. If you don't like that I respond and to drive bys then you can always put me on ignore. I don't think you understand. You can't shame me into feeling bad for "derailing a thread". If you don't want it detailed don't do drive by attacks of players outside the thread topic. And why the **** do you care? Are you paying for server space or something? Ya it's in the deep end of the off-season. People don't have much new to say.
the poster, he sounds genuinely excited Rockets team fan on the impact to winning games of rookie Amen Thompson Amen Thompson in 1 year averaging just 22.4 mins a game TS% 57.6 per 36min 10.6 reb 2 stls 1 blk 4.2 asts 2.3 tov per 100 poss 118 Ortg 109 Drtg +9 Netrtg 1.8 BPM suggested for Amen to have more minutes getting minutes from Dillon, Jabari, and Jalen (so we can't be so sure he's a "jater") he didn't even say replace or not start JG but just minutes it can be just 2 mins and another 4 mins from Brooks 2 mins from FVV and 2 mins from Jabari that totals 30 mins a game for Amen JG in his 3rd yr 31.7min TS% 54.1 per 36min 5 reb 0.9 stls 0.4 blk 4 asts 2.6 tov per 100 poss 107 Ortg 115 Drtg -8 Netrtg -0.5 BPM so his suggestion actually makes sense to have Amen play close to 30 mins and Jalen still plays 30 mins and you take that as a "drive by" attack on Jalen??? if that's not a cultist I don't know what's that its like a cultist saying any negative about a politician is an "assassination attempt"
