He's **** awful at the rim, his handles are loose as ****.... He can't shoot... He might turn into a defender at some point... But man his absolute pie in the sky outcome is looking more and more like a Marcus Smart level player. His offensive game is just ass.

To expand on this... I do think he has potential still. He might not be a star.or anything, but he could be good. Nothing seems fundamentally broken. It's just a myriad of things that need a lot of work... Which is frustrating because it leaves you with a player who's not good at anything, but could be good at a bunch of things if he takes the right steps.
He can't go left... Do players just sit on his right hand.....
His handles are loose, despite having big hands, he's constantly losing the ball while dribbling.
Despite having a big and strong frame he attacks like a wussy. He contorts his body all sorts of ways to avoid contact, and just throws up wild bull crap at the rim.
Despite his jumpers general form being pretty solid, his footwork is an absolutely embarrassing disaster.
Despite having solid vision, his decision making is garbage and he plays dumb when passing more often than not.
He plays with no change of pace and gets himself into horrible situations that exacerbate all his other issues almost every time he attacks from the half court.
A lot of this stuff you could reasonably see improving, however... It's just a lost of stuff that he plain sucks at... And it's going to be hard to trust him with anything until stuff gets better.

It's not hopeless but he has a mountain of work to do.

I was hoping and expecting this to be one of the first replies. You did not disappoint. Jroy have it all.

I saw him carry the ball 3 times on a single drive the other day.

Ant fr is gonna be better than dame in a year or two. I can see why NeO said he’s the best prospect he’s ever drafted.
We set back the rebuild going Scoot over Amen. We should’ve learned our lesson with Dame and CJ. Maybe the front office was as confident in Ant?
Amen is just a much better fit and will probably be at least equal to Scoot but has the better fit potential as a starting SF and has a even higher ceiling than his brother Ausar as a playmaker and scorer. This was the time to forgo BPA and just draft a Thompson twin.

Agreed with all except Simons becoming better than Lillard.
