Late pass Ngga.:myman: 2023 offseason thread ….


Man I think they/we really overthinked things with Amen bc of the OTE affiliation. He might be a star

With Jabari….wrong era :francis: He ain’t never getting a chance to handle the rock like that. They’re gonna turn him into Clint capela
And the more I watch Amen and hear him talk and hear them say he’s ‘different’, the more it seems the real core should be Amen-Jabari-Sengun. They…. play the right way

The uncle rukus in me just does not like the combo of KPJ and green.

That’s gonna cause a logjam when Amen is ready, which is gonanbe very soon. Like year 2.

Imo 3 years from now the Houston squad that’s a contender will look like:

Amen-Jalen-vet 3&D-Jabari-Sengun, with Sengun-amen having a Jokic-Murray, sabonis-fox dynamic.


Bench: Eason, vets
Traded: KPJ, Whitmore

Super sized athletic PG with good pedigree. Yea idk about Ausar but Amen gon be a star. Houston needs to clear the roster for him (cough KPJ)

Be a prophet brehs :martin:

Can't wait to see one of them match up with Zion to see how quick their twitches really are. Both of them nikkas have a burst but they don't have the coordination down packed to be the same offensively.
Yeah, there's is much more effective defensively right now. They don't have the offensive feel Zion has. I guess in the same way Zion doesn't have the defensive instincts they do.

Yeah it’s not the same vein of athleticism as Vince, Drose, and Prime Westbrook. Those are the gold standard. Amen was in his bag against San Antonio looking like he took dream lessons but he’s nowhere close to the threes they’re the standard

:ohhh:

I hate per 36 but this whole time I assumed Amen was just better. Guess not

I know Detroit is playing well but there’s no way you can see what Amen is doing, and you have a literal clone, yet you say ‘mmm nah I’m good we need to get Tobias Harris his minutes’
