Amen not progressing is what actually fucked them. Rockets are banking on him becoming an actual star

Amen and Sengun will never work together in terms of actually competing

Ok_Possible_5702

115 | 18 hours ago

I will never understand the whole “but what if Amen develops a 3P shot”.

Dude has been a professional basketball player for like 8 years. If he’s this bad of a shooter after so much practice, odds are he’ll never become a good one.

MambaSaidKnockYouOut

87 | 17 hours ago

I feel like “If he develops a 3 point shot” is such lazy analysis for a guy who basically doesn’t shoot 3’s at all. There’s a difference between being a bad 3 point shooter and basically not shooting 3’s. People will try to mention Kawhi and Jason Kidd as guys who became good shooters, but those guys came into the league as willing 3 point shooters -they just weren’t good at it. At least they were mentally prepared to shoot 3’s, they weren’t learning a new skill, they were just improving on one.

Amen is basically a non-shooter, he’s like one rung above Ben Simmons. Guys who come into the league with that low of a volume almost never become good shooters, and they almost never become guys who shoot 3’s at a decent volume. His best-case scenario would be late-career Rondo.

YizWasHere | Hornets

23 | 17 hours ago

Rondo’s a good comp there, what I’ll give Amen is that he at least improved as a FT shooter which could be a positive sign. One of the things that really made Rondo seem hopeless was that he couldn’t even get above 65% as a FT shooter.

ImARebelBitch | Heat

22 | 17 hours ago

He’s two rungs below pre-injury Ben imo.

MambaSaidKnockYouOut

17 | 16 hours ago

I’m talking about as a shooter. Ben really didn’t take any threes - he took 34 total threes as a 76er. Amen has taken over 1 three a game in each of the past two seasons. He clearly doesn’t want to shoot threes yet, but Ben seemed physically incapable of shooting from behind the arc lol

I don’t think they are this bad just because of Amen, Sengun is very inconsistent, Jabari Smith is just slightly better than an average 3 and D, and Reed Sheppard does nothing with his cold streak right now. Its basically KD dropping 25 a night and everyone else is just bad or inconsistent.

FVV and Adams were what our entire game plan was built around: stack possessions by controlling TOs and getting OREBs. Force through inefficiency with volume.

Lizpy6688 | Rockets

29 | 17 hours ago

Our coach has lost the locker room. No one was pumping each other, no communication, no effort. He can’t figure out an offense and when I spoke to Celtics fans yesterday they said it was the same exact issue they had when he was there. He’s also supposed to be some defensive genius but can’t adapt to the fact that consistently we allow teams to rain 3s on us, lanes get open etc.

He also just basically threw Alpy under the bus saying he can’t defend in the presser despite Alpy being injured but having to play as we’d be worse off without him. He also refuses to develop Reed which is partly why he’s in a shooting slump I imagine along with essentially being a rookie as he barely got playing time last season.

A lot of us want him gone. Our offensive scheme is the same shit as last season, just no true 1 guard. Fred covered it up but even then we were calling out. It’s just now more obvious

I legitimately want the dude fired. His whole fucking “fuck everyone we the dogs” culture is evaporated and he’s blaming the guys in the fucking press conference on how they won’t play with energy. His go to is “we got punked” but refuses to take accountability

gradedonacurve | Knicks

22 | 16 hours ago

People kinda forget he had almost completely lost the Celtics locker room too and people were talking about breaking up the Jays and blowing the team and then they just turned it around at the halfway point and made a Finals run (the 21-22 season).

So I guess this means it could still go the other way, lol.

Been a fan since my first game at the “old coliseum”. 2 days before Christmas 1988 I watched Kurt Rambis put back the buzzer beating game winner against Jordan’s Bulls and the crowd (half of em decked out in tuxedos) blew the fuckin roof off the place. Got deep in my soul that night, and I’ve flown high and suffered with em (mostly suffered) year after year ever since. This feels right though - long overdue of course - but I think we finally have really good people in place with our GM and coaches. We’re building the roster slow and smart with an eye to the future. We suffered through some brutal injury filled seasons, but these kids can play, and they’re finally getting a chance to show it. I’m all in…and I’ve got wide open arms for the bandwaggoners. BUZZ BUZZ MOTHERFUCKERS!!

We still have a lot of our assets, but it’s starting to look like everything from players to coaching have a ceiling lower than we’d like.

fastheadcrab | Raptors

39 | 17 hours ago

Yeah, their offensive rebounding was what kept their offense above water. Without Adams and without a PG, they are entirely reliant on KD to prop up the offense. Doesn’t help that Udoka has zero offensive coaching ability. He put all his effort into the other type of “offender.”

This meltdown could’ve been predicted from the start of the season. The rebounding helped keep the team performing well, but with it gone and team chemistry crumbling, it looks like they’re headed for a rough ending.

It’s a shame because they were so dominant on defense and there could’ve been a lot of promise

CardiologistThick928 | Hornets

6 | 15 hours ago

I noticed it during the game but it felt like the Hornets/Rockets run offensive systems that are like 15 years apart. Rockets feel like they do so much iso-ball and never generate clean/easy looks for their players and that just further complicates the lack of creator they have… while the Hornets have an insane cardio/effort system that generates good looks + an extremely good offensive engine in Lamelo… also helps that the Hornets roster can fundamentally rotate 3~⁴⁄₅ of the guys on the court with fine shooting profiles.

Reed Sheppard 2-10, 7 points, zero assists, 2 turnovers….and was absolutely tortured on defense. The Hornets just went at him and scored almost every time.

He’s a young guy and all but like the Rockets are trying to contend this year and I don’t think he can play actual minutes for a contender.

Sc0rch1ngDr4g0n | Rockets

Plenty of season to go, but it’s telling that a lot of voices in the Rockets community started to have pessimistic discussions even before the game. From FO to coaching to the players, there’s a lot of concerns about the long-term viability of this current team.

Injury luck with FVV and Adams sucks, but things run deeper than that. The two pillars of our “dominate possessions” strategy (FVV for TO control and Stevo for OREBs) going down really exposes the team and coaching. Still have plenty of assets, but how do we help this team? Is it even worth investing further?

Anyways, SO to Isaiah Crawford. Reminds me of Cardwell with his energy and hustle. First real rotation minutes, granted, but I hope he can continue to earn minutes.

We were due for a blowout win.

That 4th quarter was awful. Luckily, the Rockets offense is putrid, so I didn’t even need to worry about them getting back into the game.

Since New Year the Hornets have beaten each of the top 5 in the West - OKC, Spurs, Nuggets, Lakers, Rockets. 8 wins in a row (first time since 1999), multiple blow outs including 2 50-pointers.

banieI | Hornets

So excited for the Hornets man. I gotta say, Amen Thompson has got to develop a jump shot IMO. I know FVV is injured and that’s a huge blow for Houston, but the bugs just didn’t look worried about anyone that wasn’t named Kevin all game. Reed Sheppard seems to just be too small for a team with LaMelo at the one and without other guys who can get it done on the perimeter it just feels like the Rockets’ ceiling is not a championship. Maybe I will look stupid in 5 months though.

I’m surprised the Rockets didn’t do something at the deadline, a starting back-court of Okogie and Thompson is nice defensively but tragic on offense, and Reed going 2-10, along with Sengun pouting, makes for a tough night - Hornets look legit and will be better with Coby White as a great guy off the bench.

Hornets are 13-6 since the new year. I’m praying we get to see them in the play-in and not the Bulls.

The Charlotte Hornets (24-28) defeat the Houston Rockets (31-19), 109-99 to win their 8th straight game.
