You guys should really stop with this "they" stuff.
Stop lumping them in together, as if they're the same player.
Sure, they're twins, who have some similarities and play on the same team in the same league. But they are different prospects, who are different in several ways.
Implying they're the exact same prospect is really oversimplifying and makes it seem like you haven't seen them play much, at all..
-Amen has quicker first step, much better at getting by his man off the dribble
-Amen has better flexibility / body contortion ability
-Amen has better passing, vision, creativity, etc.
-Amen is a slightly better ball handler
-Ausar is more decisive with the ball, whereas Amen sometimes gets in trouble with over dribbling / indecisiveness, trying to do too much on drives..
-Ausar overall is a better defender, partly due to the fact that he's a little bit stronger physically, but also i think his effort & instincts are a little better defensively than Amen
-Amen though can sometimes slide his feet quicker and flip his hips better to stay with drivers, defensively (so the gap defensively isn't huge, but I do give Ausar a slight edge on D)
-Amen is a more efficient scorer closer to the basket, in the paint, at the rim. Amen is much more efficient at converting those shots
-Ausar is a much better 3 pt shooter
-In the half court and in transition, you typically see Ausar as more of a play finisher, and Amen as more of a creator
-Amen is a little bit faster in the open court (i think his 3/4 court sprint is like the fastest any prospect has had in like 10 years or something)
-Amen has a higher vertical leap, one of the highest vertical leaps we have seen in a long time
-On drives, Amen is a little more creative, more in his bag. Ausar is moreso just straight line drives and some spin moves, up and unders and stuff
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything
