Gotcha, I'd still have questions about that working long-term (especially since I think Jarace needs minutes ASAP to fully develop...like any...
Yes, I do worry about that some. I think Sengun *has* to become a decent-to-good 3pt shooter if he wants to be a top 30-40 player (or something...
I think when he's off-ball, he *has* to be a cutter (which with Sengun, great!). He will also need to work hard at setting screens, which if guys...
Just for fun (cause I'm weird), I tried projecting some numbers for Amen just to get an idea of what his TS%/PPS could end up being, even if he...
Sure. But I'm hoping Rockets get a vet SF (possibly in return for moving those 2). And if you're like me, you think Jarace is a 4/5, so that...
Scoot should be a PG, but sure I see what you mean overall. I'd suggest some tweaks (and I don't like Harden if the team gets Scoot/Amen/etc....
I'd hope that Jabari, JG, Sengun, etc., are a better supporting cast (mayba ala the KD/Harden Thunder with WB). I also hope Amen is better in...
Amen shot 25% AFAIK (though better in the playoffs), which is atrocious. Though he also *mostly* shot these wide open. And I'm guessing he'll also...
Right, so yeah you're kinda describing Westbrook, who I threw out as a comp. Maybe that's good, maybe that's bad. I'm hopeful he'd be more...
That's why you don't do that with Amen on offense, not defense (was that not obvious?). You run the plays I keep referring to. You don't give...
I've said multiple times in this thread that Westbrook is a decent comp to Amen IMO. Would I like him to be Westbrook mixed with Curry?...
Yeah, gotcha. I was mostly quoting the picture, as that is a good example of what *not* to do if you have a guard like Amen. Was that Doc Rivers?...
See the plays/clips in my previous post of Westbrook and (early career) Zion taking advantage of their first step gravity. Even if you sag off...
This is a possibility, but that's also why you counter with some of the looks I shared earlier (and with Sengun/JG/Jabari/etc., I think they'd be...
I see him more as a 4/5 too, but that also kinda limits him imo. His wingspan is long, but his standing reach isn't super impressive imo. I think...
I'm still a bit undecided on his defense. Not in terms of potential (he clearly has the length, lateral quickness, athleticism, effort, etc.), but...
I haven't really done a deep dive on Wallace. I just know he's good and some general measurements. I'm pretty sure he's the better player, but...
I admit to not doing a super deep dive on Jarace, but I just have a really difficult time figuring out how he works on this team (outside of him...
Part me likes that (and certainly we should do that if we go the Harden route), though I'm also thinking Amen would need to get reps as lead...
FWIW, I think Sam Vecenie, Maxwell Baumbach, and probably Hollinger (if you interpret his analysis somewhat favorably) have said a variation of...
