    Wow, he's mobile for a bigger/older guy.

    Camby is still a solid guy. He's a great passer,good positional defender,great weakside guy and can knock down the 15fter. When I talked about camby yrs ago,people said he was overrated and everything else,but now he's cool. He's the kinda of guy who should've been on the rockets roster during yao's best yrs. Even after yao was done, I thought they should've platooned that spot. If they had made the trade of mcgrady for dalembert and iggy, then they could've had another guy behind dally like fasenko. Those would've been playoff team. Instead, they traded for martin and played hayes at center.

    lol... I remember it dearly when he played for the Knicks, Clippers and Nuggets. The shots swooshed in at times.

    I thought he looked like a great value for what we gave up. Another OK job by Muray.

    Iggy plays on the wrong side of the court for Adelman so of course he is going to prefer Martin.

    Agreed: he played well.

    And that Flavor Flav reference was funny.

    There is a reason why he plays less because he plays on/off. Last night, I saw him just let players go by him, or let players shoot over him. He didn't even attempt to block it, or attempt to go after the defender and he let S.Nash make a fool of him.

    Camby does not look 38 on the court... Very athletic (fluid) and in good condition. He is very adequate for what we need him for.

    Marcus is the man. Great trade. Doesn't matter if he's old balls.

    Defense didn't lose that game. You can't expect to score 86 and beat anybody.


    Our centers aren't expected to produce offense. C-Lee, Dragic and Bud looked tired.

    Yes.

    The only exception is "Lowery". Not sure what's up with that.
