    Amen is playing like a superstar no wonder he beat out Whitmore, Eason and Brooks to start the first preseason game.

    We don't need FVV bringing the ball slowly for a set defense ever again. We have too many great transitional players.

    Amen is looking like he is making a leap already.

    Great first quarter.

    First, to get this out of the way: Jalen had some TOs. Let's give it a rest for now. Rust is to be expected. I thought he looked good on both ends.
    Alpi was smooth as silk.
    Cam Curry's stroke was pure!
    Reed's quick hands on defense appeared 3 times in just 5 mins
    Amen looks a monster. Oh boy!

    I concur. Nobody can stay in front of him but I don't trust his decision making or his ability to make simple shots.

    His ultimate destiny might be in the Lou Williams, Jamal Crawford, Jordan Poole, Jordan Clarkson tier... he's.a guy who can absolutely go off but is just way to streaky to be depended on night in and night out.

    I would like to see him in that role cooking 2nd units if he has it going but I understand why that's unlikely to happen here considering how high we drafted him.
