  1. His defense reminds me of Lonzo. He can be All NBA pretty soon if he wants.

  2. He's special. Sucks we didnt see thompson twin matchup. Have to wait for the regular season

  3. Most of the offensive side of the game can get rusty and you can be off some days, but defense, rebounding and getting out and running on the fast break and getting easy buckets can be there every night. It is just a matter of effort combined with athleticism and this dude has both of those in spades! Excited to see watch him develop into the next Andre Iguodala with the Pistons!

  4. Nothing better than seeing young guys who really understand the game come into the league. Detroit and Houston hit the jackpot with the Thompsons.

  5. Ausur's and Amen's shot is not conducive to transition or on the move jumpers. They need clear separation to get their shot off. I hope they change that and develop a better jumper. Only then they will be stars.

  6. Thompson has the poise of a veteran player. He's already good, and can't wait to see him after he gets some NBA experience.

  7. He has not been shooting well from 3pt and free throw line.

    All scouting reports were correct.

  8. never pouts or complains about not gettin the rock. Goes out there and does all the dirty work. This kid is special

  9. we couldve picke keyonte george but noo we wanted a slow unathletic whiteguy thanks raps management u suckk

  10. If I'm Detroit I'm packaging Ivy, Wiseman, picks whatever assets it may take besides Cade to get Amen to Detroit. That continuity and defensive tenacity could land Detroit a championship one day. These twins are SPECIAL.
