@@bizzyboomin9277be honest with yourself, you trade Lamelo with Amen straight up before this season starts how many games are the Hornets winning? Let me know
I think what it is is his height and athleticism mixed with his motor can make him an elite rebounder and defender now. And then once his offense comes around which he has shown glimpses of the skill and creativity he can be a true basketball “five tool” player if you will. He does have the highest “all around potential “of the aforementioned players.
@@Cr33p_Inn_Diss_Guys Yup and athletic two way wings/forwards are very often the most valuable archetype come playoff time (Jokic and Curry are outliers)… JDub and Amen are the best young prospects after Wemby and Ant
The only way I can understand some of these takes, are if they're talking about potential. Like I'd take Garland over Amen but prime for prime I'd take Amen. That Cade and Chet over is crazy though lol all young with crazy upside and Amen is the worse of them both.
Amen was a rookie and injured last year so couldn’t gauge how good he could be. This year he hasn’t really played much until Jabari got hurt so now we get to see Amen as a starter and he looks great. 19pts, 10rbs and 4asts while getting 3 stocks is impressive. Once Amen develops an average jumper and gets more experience it’s not hard to imagine 24pts, 12rbs, 6asts and 5 stocks a game. And he plays defense, no one can guard 1-5 and make their advantage. He’s defended Ja Morant, Mobley, and Tatum withiut breaking a sweat. Tatum has never been held scoreless in a half ever until he met Amen.
Hype? Guy is in the defensive player of the year race in his second year... and started only weeks. Imagine if he started all year... not a question he wins it
Naw like his game translates to winning better. Like lámelo is obviously more box office. Amen is a better defender, rebounder, rim protector, more athletic than lámelo and they’re the same height. Lámelo is a better shooter(currently) and facilitator l/ball handler. Amen can improve on his deficiencies whereas lámelo is who he is.
Think of like tyus jones v Jordan Poole. In a vacuum Jordan Poole has better counting stats and is the more well known and flashier player but if I’m a contending team I’d rather have tyus jones.
@@bizzyboomin9277He joined Jalen green, cam Whitmore, sengun, and smith jr, a team with potential, outside of Brandon Miller who tf on the hornets has potential like the rockets🤝🏾🤝🏾
@@seanholmes5173 all those players you named had one of the worst records in the league when he joined them lol THAT'S WHY THEY PICKED 4TH IN THE DRAFT... So no he didn't join a better team they had one of the worst records in the nba can u read lol.. They changed coaches and played a whole year before this year started and they got good.. Miller was picked 2nd both teams where trash.. Snap out of it
@theoperry3236 yeah his improvement is crazy making threes and middy's now. Amen will be great and already is and hopefully he starts at point guard full time next year
@ trust me they didn’t if u watch these channel they all ways love to disrespect Scottie. They didn’t mention him because they don’t think he’s even worth bringing up when it comes to comparing amen Thompson who I like a lot but let’s be honest we are so in love with his versatility, but he is limited offensively.
@ when Scottie was struggling his second year, this channel loved trashing on him and putting players over Scottie that he was still better than and then when he bounced back last year, they refuse to even talk about his improvements, and now this year he just won ecf player of the week, and not to mention him in this video. I don’t think they just forgot it was on purpose.
Guys not unique... Amen is literally the best wing defender in the league... thats championship basketball. Do you see what Amens defensive + - is against the best players in the league? He literally has to guard the best players in the nba and is still up for defensive player of the year... do u havecany idea how hard that is?
This crazy recency bias amen over Cade too like damn Cade is also a walking triple double and a proven scorer with his shooting defensively athletic ability yes but come on now. Over melo ehhhh amen is on a better team garland I get he’s smaller, Ja like man come on now

Not at all 😂😂😂😂 you’re just a casual. Mobley this his best year and amen when he starts averages the same numbers and is a better defensive player 😂😂😂😂 didn’t he just lock down Mobley a few games ago? Oh he locked down Ja to and he’s healthy unlike Chet.
A lot of y’all in the comments section have clearly never watched amen Thompson and the rockets in the last couple of seasons and it shows. Amen is going to be a future superstar.
Yep.. or they just dont understand hes on track to win defensive player of the year in his second season... then dont understand defense wins championships
Jaylen Brown won finals MVP last year and JDub is basically the same player but All-Defense caliber and a better playmaker… Amen is awesome and maybe he is superstar level also but pretending Evan Mobley has a way higher ceiling than JDub is bs… JDub archetype is what wins championships
Jalen green is very similar to Zach Lavine. Uber athletic and great offensive talent but doesn’t offer much else outside of on ball scoring. Can be hot and highly effective but when cold and not scoring doesn’t offer much else.
Giannis will ask out this summer. Which will be perfect for the Rockets. Jalen Greens new bigger extension number kicks in which makes it easier to match Giannis' salary. And you only trade Amen for a player like Giannis. Bucks: Jalen Green, Amen Thompson, whatever other smaller salary match that is needed. Plus 3 first round picks. Rockets: Giannis
@SkyrimGuy5000 For Giannis? 100%. Suns gave up Bridges and Johnson, 5 firsts. Giannis is still in his prime. Same level player as KD. You are smoking crack if you think otherwise. Be gone casual! 🤡

how are yall gonna say ja is having such a bad skid that it’s unsustainable but when haliburton starts off the year awful and now looks like a star player again yall are still only focusing on how bad he was in october and november? amen a great athlete and great defender but in no universe is he ever gonna be a better player than haliburton, ja, or even lamelo. this vid screams recency bias
Mobley is not better than Chet! Chet better offensively and better shot blocker. Amen over Mobley too Amen is 2nd to no one defensively and higher upside offensively
