So I’m guessing y'all are not ready to talk about Amen Thompson.

Can Amen become more a playmaker is the better question than can he be a point guard?

Right now he is guarding the best player on the other team that isn't big man which is his primary duty. I'm not too worried about his play making at this point since our double big lineup reduces spacing that Amen would need to excel.

 

It's a lot easier to just roam around on offense looking for lobs, cuts and offensive rebounds. Amen can always go back to that when we get a pg, so I'm not worried.

It makes sense that he's not comfortable being the main ball handler, because now he has to read the court, do more creating from scratch. Right now we are winning, and he's learning, so I'm not mad that his production is dropping. But I don't really see him as the main PG.
