    So you're using one 41 point game as your argument now? DO you remember Jalen Green? Go look at how many 40pt games he had and realise you're clutching at straws BIGTIME at this point. Also, I said "one top 10 player in the league with a shot chart like Amen" and you bring Zion "I'm so fat my team put it in my contract" Williamson? You are not a serious person.

    Why do find it so necessary to insult people that disagree with you? You are, by far, the most despicable poster, other than a couple of racists that have been banned, that have ever been on this forum. I know, I know, now you’ll come back with some trash about ball licking and such. Go back to your mom’s basement and play video games with your junior high friends.

    Where was the insult? It's not an insult to say somebody using Zion as an argument isn't being serious, it's a fact. If you dislike me so much, put me on ignore. I get more than enough likes and have more than enough great conversations with everybody outside of your sensitive little self lmao. Also the irony of every single time you quote me being you insulting me is palpable. Go back and get your meds from the nurse.

    It's a concept that has been normalized by the existence of Bobby and DD.

    What he's leaving out is the reason he gets nothing but insults from me is he spent a few months following me around on the forum doing nothing but insult me because I don't worship the ground Amen misses jumpshots over. Seriously though, I have great interactions on this forum all day every day, just not with that little b**** because he decided targeting me over his boyfriend was a good idea. If you don't want smoke, don't play with matches.

    Totally untrue. I called you a jerk, because of a snarky comment you made about me asking for a recap of a game, that I actually apologized for. Your response to that was following me around blathering on about balls and c*m and all kinds of junior high insults. I don’t agree with your Amen takes, but I have reasonable debates with other posters that agree with your point of you. Acting like you don’t treat anybody else on this forum with disdain and uncalled for insults is just a lack of self-awareness. You don’t think calling OremLK an unserious person is an insult? Or the trash you throw at Goatuve and countless other posters? You may be an adult by age, but you are juvenile in your interactions with anybody that disagrees with you.

    you're almost single-handidly making me switch sides by how obnoxious you are towards posters who disagree with your opinion.

    there's no reason not to be civil in these discussion, you're way out of line.

    Bullshit, you followed me around for months quoting every single post I made that wasn't slurping all over Amen like one of your wet dreams. So because you gave me that energy I give you nothing but the same back, tenfold, every single time your dumb ass tries to quote me with another insult. Note, I NEVER quote you until after you decide to get your panties in a bunch and quote me with an insult. Ever. Everything you get from me is a reaction to you. If you don't want it, stop ****ing quoting me you dumb b****. I couldn't care less what you think of me, I think you're a sensitive b****made little hoe who can't handle the fact that you caused this issue with your own persistent quoting of EVERY SINGLE POST I made about Amen for months. You don't get to clutch pearls after the fact because I've thrown it back in your face with ten times the venom. Real talk. I give every single person back the same energy they give to me. I have awesome interactions with people all day long on here, I'm even offering to give people free league pass using my account next season just so they don't have to deal with the bullshit y'all get in the states subscription wise. The difference? They didn't come quoting me with sand in their vagina because I don't worship their favourite player, that's you. It really is that simple. Just ignore me, easier for all of us, I never quote you, I give you plenty of likes when I agree with your posts, but why I want to keep drawing your attention when you followed me around to insult me for months? I only ever give you a RESPONSE to your dumb b****made little whiney posts. Seriously, go **** yourself.

    Maybe it's a culture barrier thing then, I don't see the insult in that post. "You're not a serious person" is just a throwaway line bantering with your boys over stuff like sports here in the UK, seriously. Bear in mind how often people call me names but noone calls them out also, bit one sided?I have no animosity towards @OremLK at all, I wished him a lovely evening with his family the other night, if that line is taken that way then I apologise for it. Never to Hemingway's b**** ass though, he legit followed me around insulting me for months begging for a reaction.

    I don't think it's a culture barrier at all, it's just the overall tone of your replies, you're over the top for no reason like you know better and everyone who has a different opinion is just wrong period.

    I'm from Brazil and of course "bantering with your boys" gets pretty heated and you don't have to be polite at all, but you don't know anyone from here in real life, so you come out as just disrespectful. Just take a look at how people talk around here, me and @OremLK for example disagree a lot but we always show respect and try to learn from each other's point of view.

    I have plenty of find interactions all day every day on here. I apologised for the statement that as I said, is commonplace non-insulting language where I live. I'm genuinely not sure what else you want for me? Feel free to chime in on the people who do the exact same **** all the time to me? I'm not going to be bullied thanks.

    Posters like that just become totally obsessed with the idea of a player. In this case Amen....

    FVV broke a lot their brains because they couldn't comprehend that if Amen and/or Green was capable of handling a larger offensive load.... they'd be doing it.

    I like Amen and feel the Sengun/Green 21% extension is it.

    He's an elite scorer. He's not a 3 pt shooter, but he shoots better than Amen and Sengun

    Amen is the future. I definitely feel like the shot will come. we need to decide if we want to focus with him as a point guard or in another role.

    he was by far our best player this year.

    Was it really poorly spaced or was Amen the cause of the spacing issues himself.

    You had a starting 5 of Sengun, Amen, KD, Jabari & one of Tari, Reed, Holiday or Okogie most of the time.

    KD shot .413
    Reed was .394
    Jabari .363
    Okogie .385
    Holiday .417
    Alpi .305
    DFS .333
    Amen .216
    And finally Tari who was leading the league at .455 at one point about half way thru then couldn't buy a bucket for the next month.

    That's more than enough shooting to spread the floor and even Alpi's .305 is "acceptable" for a center who doesn't shoot many 3's.

    Sengun is this teams center, like him or not. He Belongs In The Paint.

    How much more spacing do you want "around Amen"?

    KD was doubled and blitzed all season long - the rest of the team playing 4 on 3.
    Sengun saw a high volume of double teams as well - the rest of the team going 4 on 3.

    More often than not, it's how teams "defend" Amen that allows those double teams to occur - when they can place one defender between Amen and the other guy on that side of the floor and the rim.

    I pointed this out months ago, when Amen is on the perimeter off ball, teams don't guard him at all, they guard the space between him and the rim which allows them to literally guard one side of the floor with one defender.


    Even when he is on ball, teams will drop defenders off of him and invite the 3 or mid range shot, it's not until he's literally in the lane that they'll close the gap between Amen and the defender.

    The way teams defend Amen is the root of the spacing problems.

    I think most shoot better than Amen and Alpi. Still I don't want to give up to get him.

    I don’t want to give either up as well. But I would for equal or better value. I so so bad want one of the two to become a decent 3 point shooter.

    It would definitely be nice. I don't think it's ever going to happen with Amen. He just doesn't have any touch from outside. Sengun I don't get. He actually does have good touch but he doesn't seem to want to develop a 3. That's possibly on our coaching staff as well. I'd trade them for the right price but Giannis isn't it.
