Thank you Romp for this video. Now Tari and Amen are being called "The Terror Twins" and oh my...yes they are. On of them against any team is problematic but then the two at the same time is total chaos. I expect the Rockets to end in the 5-7 seed this season.
!!!! Ngl I became a rockets fan last yr and started watching all of their games. Can whitmore was my guy. This season I was a lil mad Tari started getting in the way of his playing time. But man now Tari my favorite player in the league. This dude is a Dawg on both ends of the court. Definitely a franchise corner stone.
Man, they play defense like they're possessed by demons. It's nuts. I found myself feeling legitimately bad for the entire Wizards team that night. It's not often that defenders like this emerge in the NBA at all, much less at such a young age, much less two of them on the same team. It's so much fun to watch. Last night the pair of them absolutely destroyed the Clippers. And man, go back and watch the tape of Amen playing defense on Ja, Jalen Brunson, James Harden, and even Luka. This man is shutting down the most incredible offensive talents in the NBA and he's 21 years old.
Yes. The guy literally has to be guarded for every cut which opens so many lanes. If they double sengun .. watch every play he is standing there and the defender cant go help. Also how many O reb he has thrown out for wide open 3s. What he does away from the ball is completely throw ppl off the game plan. But he literally causes mayhem on both ends... lets also point out ... hes made some 3s!!! Also his pull up from mid range is looking sweet. Its going to get stupid in Houston when these guys mature and the old cats sit back.
Just wait until Reed earns his backup PG/SG minutes. His D along side the Terror Twins in the 2nd unit will make no lead safe. Rockets will be a top 6 seed in the west. BTW...props on the video
@@nolimit4484 im not sure what argument your trying to make. If you cant guard without fouling then thats the defenses problem not Sga’s. Everyone will always complain about a player until they’re on the team they root for.
@ I’m saying he does hunt fouls. And it causes good offense for him. He’s a great player but he throws his arms around and gets you in the air to jump into you. He’s like prime James harden just not close to the scorer harden was
💯💯💯 Can’t believe coming out the draft, some “experts” really thought Jabari should’ve been considered with the #1 pick over Paolo & Chet. Jabari been a total disappointment so far. But I definitely agree Tari is way better 💯
Jabari is really important defender and rebounder who can occasionally get really hot in shooting too. I like Eason more but I feel the hate on Jabari is unwarranted. There’s a reason ime plays him so much.
What's even crazier about that Thompson chase down steal is he did that at the end of the game in a blowout. That speaks volumes to his stamina and mentality.
They are really a great defensive duo who create offensive baskets and work off one another's tenacity in also creating baskets for their teammates 🙂👍🏼
Yup. Hes gonna get even more. Its all that confidence. Last year he looked just simply nervous. Once thats over... and this kid is starting PG its over... lets remember he started PG like 3 games last year and triple doubled in the third?!!?!
Amen Thompson and Tari Eason duo is something to look out for. Amen has just pure athleticism that you can’t teach. That footwork and catch up speed is insane along with his length. Tari also has some intangibles but I’m glad they are easing him in. Leonard is still dealing with knee problems and I hope Tari doesn’t in the future. Glad both are great role players and can be the X factors when first unit isn’t get much flow. Wish Reed Sheppard can get his stroke together. I was expecting him to be the sniper but so far he hasn’t been on his game.
I’m fine with getting rid of one of the main guys like segun or Jalen just to keep these two. Reed needs to step up and be point bc Fred is costing us too much money when we have all this young talent that will be asking for more money and we won’t be able to keep them.
Everytime one of our bench players play great y’all wanna start them that’s not how it works it’s a rotation for a reason this is how okc is becoming better they don’t step each other toes they know their roles
They are both very hardworking players. They lack game understanding and game intelligence. It would be great if they watch a lot of videos and analyze positions with Alpi. My 5 is: Tari, Amen, Alpi, Jaylen and Jabari
Amen lacks game understanding🤣. One of the highest IQ players ive ever seen. Straight up he knows where to be and what to do before it happens. Watch some more games bro. For a 21 year old he does things that 20 year vets wouldny dream about

Perfect analysis … def 5-7 . Even if we finish 8 i see them still causing hell early in the playoffs
Finally people are waking up and realizing Tari is the truth. This young Rockets team will be the best defensive team in the nba soon, watch

tari, amen, and cam are crazy bench pieces, we just need cam to get his get back to mid season form
Crazy part those 3 on most upcoming teams could be starting .
8:18 Nothing more satisfying than seeing Amen getting that steal, then Doncic throwing an absolute tantrum afterwards.

This guy's clearly a homer
@@bsjohnstonhe spitting factz🤡
Great vid, but you didn't talk about the best thing of Amen offensive game his playmaking. I can't wait to see him grow as player

So excited for this duo along with Sengun as a Rockets fan. Gotta lock up Tari long term this offseason, then Amen next offseason!
Definitely. This is the trio!
Just wait until Reed earns his backup PG/SG minutes. His D along side the Terror Twins in the 2nd unit will make no lead safe.
Rockets will be a top 6 seed in the west.
BTW...props on the video
The terror twins
Yeslordrmiller❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
These 2 are special #Getfamiliar
Sga has been the only player to make our defense look silly this year
foul baiter
@@alex77195he only attempted 7 free throws against them. He cooked them without having to go to the free throw line
@@ij1851yeah but players in the league knows how he plays. He moves around looking to get fouled and defenders are cautious

The worst secret is that Eason is better than Jabari Smith and deserves to start over him.
💯💯💯 Can’t believe coming out the draft, some “experts” really thought Jabari should’ve been considered with the #1 pick over Paolo & Chet. Jabari been a total disappointment so far. But I definitely agree Tari is way better 💯
100%. I’ genuinely said 2 years ago that Eason is the better player and more important to team. Glad he’s getting the appreciation now! :)
Jabari is really important defender and rebounder who can occasionally get really hot in shooting too. I like Eason more but I feel the hate on Jabari is unwarranted. There’s a reason ime plays him so much.
Great video and analysis!
What's even crazier about that Thompson chase down steal is he did that at the end of the game in a blowout. That speaks volumes to his stamina and mentality.
Terror twins is the perfect name for these 2
They are really a great defensive duo who create offensive baskets and work off one another's tenacity in also creating baskets for their teammates 🙂👍🏼
Damn that Eason to Green at the end was cold af.
In pre season when they startin amen and tari.. they always destroys their opponents
6:47 actually he can shoot and is only getting better
Said the same. I can tell he way more confident in his shot this year.
Yup. Hes gonna get even more. Its all that confidence. Last year he looked just simply nervous. Once thats over... and this kid is starting PG its over... lets remember he started PG like 3 games last year and triple doubled in the third?!!?!

Cant agree more ... Thompson is so powerful but at the same time light and athletic... hes the scariest player with the highest cieling in the league
He's perfect for the rockets what do you mean
Well Done
And they got brooks and freddy who are great defenders ouu wee i cant wait for playoffs
I love this duo, I just feel bad that Cam Whitmore lost his groove all of a sudden.
that's why the bench got no minutes for Cam....
5:39 disrespect to D fox. I love thompson twins but Fox still has this title
Remember his dad coach at Georgetown yooo
I’m fine with getting rid of one of the main guys like segun or Jalen just to keep these two. Reed needs to step up and be point bc Fred is costing us too much money when we have all this young talent that will be asking for more money and we won’t be able to keep them.
Smother Brothers.
Amen 🙏
Who says no?
Fred Vanvleet, Cam Whitmore and Tari Eason to the Kings for De’Aaron Fox and Kevin Huerter
Ying Yang twins 😂
Thompson with a reliable midrange jumper? He will be alright. League average 3 point shooting makes him a top 10 player at his position.
League average 3 point shot makes him a top 10 player in the league!
@jackrhodes6309 No disagreement here.
Personally, I think at least one of these guys should be starting over Dillon Brooks. It should be Tari, and have Amen come in for any position.
No Dillon has been too good. Tari needs to start over Jabari
Everytime one of our bench players play great y’all wanna start them that’s not how it works it’s a rotation for a reason this is how okc is becoming better they don’t step each other toes they know their roles
Amen 2 for 2 from 3 last night

The word is pronounced "ESPECIALLY"...there is no "x" in the word. 😵💫
I don't know if he'd lead the league in steals, Dyson Daniels is on an absolute tear at the moment for steals per game. Probably be second though.
I have been saying this for a year now, Eason would be perfect on the Pacers. MAKE THIS HAPPEN!!!
A little too late buddy
We aren’t letting him go jog on
Why would we give up eason. Lol what are you offering?
Hell nah
Rockets won’t trade him.
