I've always really liked Amen. Even at the beginning of the season when people said he was terrible. One thing I would caution everyone about Scoot, this is literally the worst he's going to be. He will get better.
I'm not going to blame Scoot so much for this one. He played 41 minutes in a historically lopsided game so I would expect him to have a really bad plus/minus.
Well, we never had a chance at Brandon Miller, so that's stupid. And I guess we'll see about Thompson.
where's Hagans? Billups had 2 guards Henderson/Banton last night. Thybulle's gimpy ankle only lasted 5 minutes. Scoot was playing horrible defense and wonky offense, and Billups wouldn't/couldn't sub him out.
That was an opportunity for kids who had no reason to go to college for a year, a chance to play ball and make some money. The NIL situation made it an obsolete business structure. "crock of shit"?
Bro, he's played like 50 something games in his career....just turned 20......"STILL have trust in him" WHAT!!??
You want to take out our freshly turned 20 year old who NEEDS time on the court to learn this shit, and put in a player who will be bagging your groceries and not on an NBA roster in 3 weeks?
All the Rockets fans were complaining when Jalen Green didn't win ROY and they kept saying they should have drafted Scottie Barnes. Look at it now. Some guys need longer to develop. Especially G League guys it seems.
not to replace Henderson, just to have Hagans available to give Scoot a breather. A few minutes for Scoot to reflect and get some coaching advice. Ashton is a decent defender w/ball handling. If anyone noticed... the Blazers could have used these skills while the Heat played razzle dazzle towards their 60 point whoopin'.
Our future really hinges on good drafting so people are quick to be skeptical. I understand the panic. But I still think Scoot can become a Jason Kidd-lite
