    Nope. And I was a big fan of his the last couple of years. This year though, he’s been a chump on D or when he doesn’t get the ball. It’s like if the play isn’t run through him, he don’t care.

    Blaming everyone for his lack of switching on D, moving off the ball and list goes on and on.

    Every time I see home chest hump a team mate, the team mate looks disgusted.

    He let it get to his head and lost what got him there.

    I'd take CP3 as coach right now tbh, worth a shot.

    Offensively, I’m back in 2005 watching JVG’s Rockets

    “Vibes” wise, feels like that 2015-16 team.
    Not saying they hate each other but just a group of guys forced to play basketball together.

    Boring. Not interesting. Yes, still here watching.

    But Franchise Fred™ is what will cure us!

    Amen has been bad on defense today, Sengun has been garbage. Straight Texas waste management garbage. Kd has been so soft, Reed makes me want to slap the f*** out of him because of his oblivious stares on d. It's like he can't comprehend defensive situations, and his Bachelorette contestsnt hair cut. Jabari and his damn stone hands. Can't rebound worth sh*t. Josh Okogie looks slow as hell today, Dorian Finney Smith is never going to come back because of Udoka and the selfishness of some of the people on this team. This team is soft and who knew trading away Dillon Brooks would be so detrimental. Should've sent Jabari or Eason instead of him.

    LOL, but very true. You don’t max a 6’7 player that can’t shoot past five feet. Amen has done a great job of improving his free-throw percentage, but he needs to get in the gym and develop reliable mid-range and three-point shots. It’s damning that he’s still like this in his third year. Sengun also should have developed a reliable three-point shot by now.

    A max would be ludicrous here, but if there was any competency by the coaching staff, and not having to deal with egomaniacs, Amen would be an elite slaher/defender/finisher.

    I’d bet he’d be an All Star on an any NBA team that used him correctly.

    Same thing with Jabari. A real coach would restrict all the bad stuff he does like the one on one where he wants to put the ball on the floor. He would be a Pick n pop guy and spot up perimeter shooter in any other staff. I’ve been saying for years hai best compromise would be Houston Robert Horry
