In today's Rockets team, Amen Thompson is undoubtedly the most outstanding player in physical talent. He has just entered the league for two seasons and entered the league with his outstanding defensive ability. You should know that the Rockets' history, including him, has only five players who have been elected to this honor, but the young Amen did it. The team's center Randale gave him full affirmation, the unique genius + the team's future + will definitely be the All-Star next season. It is no exaggeration to say that the league's No. 1 Amenbu was born.

Rockets' inside Randale has a very high emotional intelligence. He recently participated in the podcast program (Ausmerican Aces NBA Show) and blew the Rockets' players. This is an interview with an Australian in the United States. He first praised Dillon, believing that he had "the best performance in his career" this season, but was ignored by the outside world because of the team's overall positive momentum (such as the soaring record). Indeed, the Rockets' elite defense (top five in the league) made an indelible contribution to helping the team jump from last season's 11th West (41 wins and 41 losses) to the second West (52 wins and 30 losses) this season, and Brooks also contributed a lot.

However, he was most excited about the part about Amen. Langdale marvels at Thompson as a “unique” genius with amazing athletic ability and court instincts that “can’t be taught”. What’s even more rare is that he “like a sponge” to absorb knowledge madly and is recognized as a “training madman”. Langdale described Thompson as if he had turned on the "switch" on the court, instantly transforming into a "madman" competitor. This trait is common in training and competition.

He called out that Amen only broke out after he replaced the injured Xiao Jia in the 50th game of the season. At first everyone knew that he had potential, but his subsequent performance was completely "exceeding everyone's expectations", making his teammates call him "Oh my God" or even "unbelievable". At the end of last season, many teammates regarded him as the "team future", and his outstanding performance in the playoffs this season (especially against the Warriors series) completely confirmed this point, and everyone was convinced: "This guy is really special." It can be said that he has completely transformed into the league's number one Amenbu. Since becoming a full-time starter in January, Amen has delivered comprehensive data averaging 15.9 points, 9.1 rebounds, 5.2 assists, 1.7 steals and 1.5 blocks in 37 games, with huge influence on both offense and defense. He nominally plays power forward, but his versatility allows him to defend almost every position on the field. Limiting Curry's score of only 3 points in a game is also a masterpiece of this season. Now limiting his upper limit is undoubtedly the shooting percentage of the outside line. If he can practice a three-point shooting, then he will be the unique card in the future league.

When looking forward to Amen's third season, Langdale also expressed high-profile expectations: "If he is not an All-Star next year, it is his own problem!" This is pressure and motivation for Amen. The Rockets management also saw Amen's excellence, so he regarded him as the team's only non-sale product.
