Do you understand that Amen hasn't lost anything, he's just having to play out of position?

I was encouraged by Amen's playmaking in the Clippers game. Hope he'll continue to grow.

 

Because it's not enough that he guards the best player, runs the offense, learns to be a PG, handles transition alone, moonlights as a C, plays the most minutes, gets lots of stocks, improved his FT%.

He has to also improve at driving thru a crowded paint in less than 20 games. Otherwise he's useless.

In all seriousness though it's understandable because for people who can't understand context, it's normal for them to be worried about a guard who right now can neither make a 3 nor drive to the basket efficiently. If I didn't know the context, I'd panic too.
