It feels like going into the draft, Amen was consistently ranked over Ausar, but Ausar has had a better start to his rookie campaign to his brother. Who do you rate more highly, based on their performance now and potential?

    Rights now is ausar. Amen looked amazing in preseason but he was having an adjustment period playing actual nba games. Before he got injured he was playing better. Its tough because hes learning the most difficult position in the nba. I think Amens ceiling is higher but because of his role he has a chance to bust. But at the end of the day im just happy they’re proving the doubters wrong about coming from ote.

    Going into the season, Ausar’s shot seemed to be a little less hitch-y than Amen’s… Amen seemed to have gained a reputation as a better athlete… Now that the season has started, it’s easy to see that Ausar is an absolutely exceptional athlete as well, so… I guess once Amen gets healthy, it’ll be interesting to see if his shot can get cleaned up. I’m reserving judgment at this point, but… Ausar looks pretty ridiculous!

    Right now it’s pretty obvious ausar is better

    But the bet on amen was always his upside being higher, so we’ll see

    I’m positive even if Amen was healthy it still be Ausar

    Fortunately for the rockets their rebuild is miles ahead of pistons so we really don’t need amen except to be a backup PG for vanvleet

    Ausar gets the benefit of being trusted since pistons don’t really have anyone else that can produce like him except Cade

    But years later ima go Amen

    PGs are loved
