Sam Vecenie, a Senior NBA Writer at The Athletic, talks all about basketball. From the NBA, to the NBA Draft, to college hoops and even some high school, Vecenie has you covered in this show.
His upside is unreal and his defense is top notch his jumper shaky but next to reed and green and Jabari it’ll work out
Agree with this 100%. I hope he develops a reliable mid range shot at the least.
Amen has a huge ceiling. I’m a Knicks fan but I’m excited to watch this kid grow and mature. Gonna be a star. I think the shot will come, he’s a workhorse, hasn’t left the gym all off-season. I genuinely thought the Blazers were going to take him over Scoot. I had Amen going at 3
Great show and go rockets!
I have 100% confidence Amen will develop a jumper. Anybody who sleeps in the gym is different
This kid is my favorite player on our team. Legitimate 2 way player. The shot will come. If he's this polished this young, then the work ethic is there. Jumpshot coming soon!
the positive tone you use here with Amen was in pretty stark contrast to the almost negativity with Scoot and Mobley ahead of him which I find fascinating. I think it speaks to upside: in next year's edition of this series I think you will have him in your top 10 even without him taking a shooting jump
Scoot isn’t ahead of him lol
He's a shot away from being a league breaking perimeter player. Without it he's going to still be a winner in alot of enviroments. Imagine this guy with real shooting and creativity around him. You're getting an ultimate switch all glue guy
@@GameTheoryPodcastwSamVecenie is AlP with a 35% 3pt shot or Amen with a 35% 3pt shot a better player?
Amen is a Scott Pippen type. When he start shooting better you gonna see. Remember C.Bulls era sometimes Pippen take de team in shoulders & do everything in the floor.
Before the 23' Draft I had Amen much higher than Ausar & everyone said I was crazy. I had Amen 3rd & Ausar 13rd. I probably should've had Ausar a few spots higher, but I didn't understand the analysts who had Ausar higher
If Amen gets the shot you were talking about then he enters MVP conversations.
I consider him a point forward
