Franks analogy is great, Amen is fast processing like a Macbook pro, which has an interface for a superfast Harddisk, our old so called Pointguard was fast like a Floppy Disk on which you can on best circumstances play Frogger, which is a frog that regularly gets killed by fast cars. š
Is Amen Thompson the best prospect on the Rockets? If not, who is??
Bro
Amen
JG
KPJ
Jabari
About to have AL P on oxygen on timeouts
Seriously can you imagine how FAST their tempo will be !????
Watch out for piston fans frank lol. Imagine if we got miller fall for us. Thank you MJ.
Amen Thompson reminds me of Penny Hardaway so much
JG is still the best prospect on the Rockets roster imo, bc heās just the bucket-getter/scorer weāll need in the playoffs to bail us outā¦when weāre a contender. Amen is a great all around player, but I still think his offensive game will be limited come playoffs or vs top defensive teams. However, I agree that weāve found our PG of the future and heās gonna make life easier for everyone around him. I think of Amen as the Pippen of the Bulls dynasty. As great as Jordan was, he never won without Scottie. Their defensive presence, high IQ, and playmaking just contributes to winning basketball. We found a gem in Amenšš¾!
I was very impressed by his play and he exceeded my expectations entirely. You know how some guys just visually look sort of out of control? They make you feel like they are going to turnover or take a wild shot. He has the look of complete composure and control. Very nice to see.
Great video. The kid can play
See ya KPJ!!! They just need to get rid of him. He is not going to be happy coming off the bench. Oh yaā¦Cam is a egotistical person too. I donāt like his selfishness and efficiency as shown in the 1st summer league gameā¦ can kind of see why he fell during the draft
I hope he gets an average 20-25 minutes play time, and he could be in 23/24 Rookies first team.
Really great analysis Frank. Amen will be the Rocketās best draft pick since Hakeem. His combination of elite IQ, skills, athleticism, and defense create fear & warp defenses. He makes everyone around him better. His size and length make his upside higher than Scoot. What fun!
