I don't agree with that at all. If you're only talking offensively, then yes he struggled quite a 'bit during the season, but his defense was consistent. Boxscores don't tell the entire story.
Excellent breakdown. The drop coverage pressure Amen creates is what separates him from Ben and Russell. This is why the sag defense won't work with him, he has a blow-by speed with a nice soft touch around the basket or he'll find a true open 3 point shooter.
What surprised me is Def the court awareness and overall Bball Iq. I thought it would take some time to adjust since he had been playing vs noobs for 2 yrs. If you look at Wemby that's how I expected Amen to play, flashes of potential but gonna be super raw. Evidently FO thought the same since FVV was our no 1 target. Good thing Amen is 6'7 and can play multiple spots, Green better get his game up both KPJ and Amen gonna be waiting in the wings this season.
Lol let's not compare him to NBA players just yet. Sag defense can shut down anyone who doesn't have a J, Amen included. He won't be able to blow by Celtics or Miami zone defense cmon man.
He did showcase that nifty running floater from longish midrange. That said, the turnaround fade he took was downright fugly.
