Amen Thompson Is Seeing Ghosts [Video Essay]

Amen Thompson is one of the most impactful young players in the NBA: elite defense, elite transition, elite connective passing. And yet… the smartest defenses have decided the best way to guard the Houston Rockets is to ignore him. This video introduces a defensive tactic called “Ghost Coverage”: when opponents treat a non-shooting guard/wing like he isn’t there, so his defender can roam, load up on the paint, and erase the advantages Houston is trying to create in the half court. It doesn’t show up in the box score. But it shows up everywhere on film... and it may decide how far the Rockets can go this season. What You’ll Learn: 🔹 What “Ghost Coverage” is (and why it’s becoming a modern NBA cheat code) 🔹 Why it hurts Houston more now, especially after losing Steven Adams and the offensive rebounding edge 🔹 How elite defenses (Spurs, Celtics, Thunder) use ghost coverage to turn Rockets possessions into 4v5 basketball 🔹 Why Amen Thompson is too valuable to bench but why playing him may result in “lesser” versions of Alperen Şengün and Kevin Durant 🔹 The four best counters right now (without waiting for Amen to become a shooter) If you’re a Rockets fan, this is the scheme you need to recognize, because playoff defenses are going to keep asking the same question: How do you score when they refuse to guard your non-shooter? #amenthompson #houstonrockets #rockets #imeudoka #alperensengun #nba #nbavideoessay #nbastrategy #basketballanalysis #defense #thinkingbasketball #rocketsnation #RocketsBasketball #jabarismithjr #reedsheppard _______ CHAPTERS: 0:00 - Amen Thompson is being ignored 0:32 - What is Ghost Coverage? 2:28 - The Houston Rockets' Biggest Loss 3:23 - Amen Thompson is ESSENTIAL 4:32 - How NBA opponents are targeting Amen 6:45 - Ime Udoka can become a Ghostbuster 8:57 - Houston's Fork in the road 10:03 - Thanks for watching, please LIKE & SUBSCRIBE! ----------- SOURCES: NBA.com Stats: https://www.nba.com/stats Dunks and Threes (EPM): https://dunksandthrees.com Cleaning the Glass: https://cleaningtheglass.com _______ For business inquiries: hothandtheorypod@gmail.com⁩ _______ Subscribe to Hot Hand Theory: / @hothandtheory _______ Follow Hot Hand Theory Website 🏀 https://www.hothandtheory.com/ Twitter 🏀 https://x.com/HotHandTheory Instagram 🏀 / hothandtheory TikTok 🏀 / hothandtheory
