Alperen Sengun is their best player and All-Star. They should focus on Amen Thompson becoming a real no. 2 option, replacing Jalen Green. And yes, Reed Sheppard should be utilized more and perhaps become their no. 3 option.
You do know Amen Thompson played PG all his life before the NBA right? Prob is he can't be that effective in the NBA level when the competition are bigger than him. His lack of shooting and subpar ball handling gets exposed more. Can't really focus on building around him when he's more effective moving off the ball and feeding off Alpi and KD..
I wouldn’t compare Rockets players each has their position and can work on it
And notice these players are under 25
Reed Sheppard: ~21 years old (Born June 24, 2004) Amen Thompson: ~22 years old (Born January 30, 2003) Jabari Smith Jr.: ~22 years old (Born May 13, 2003) Alperen Sengun: ~23 years old
Honestly, I still think Baby Jokic or Sengun is the right path for the Rockets. Unless Amen Thompson really improves his shooting, he’s not at Giannis’ level—Giannis can dominate inside and carry his team even with mediocre shooting. It’s still early to judge Thompson, though; he has all the potential in the world, but improving his shot should be the first priority.
Every YouTuber content creator swear they have the answers to every Basketball teams/player struggles. Meanwhile there's a good reason organizations don't take advice from content creators sitting in the comfort of their home….IT WOULD BE A DISASTER, and they the content creators would be the first to claim "Hey, should never have listened to me. I'm just a YouTuber who loves basketball".
FACTS‼️ Sengun was never that guy, he’s Sabonis or Enes Kanter. Rockets should have traded Sengun and kept Green honestly smh. He got overrated because he’s a euro big who can pass. He can’t shoot consistently and is an ABYSMAL defender. You don’t build a championship team with someone with his flaws. Unathletic and short armed undersized centers aren’t the move.

There was never a moment in this universe that Amen was getting consideration as the face of the league. Stop lying.
Thompson needs to go into the lab in the summer and work on his shooting.
