    It’s fun to watch basketball when it’s being played the right way. We’ve got a great summer league squad.

    I hope it's Brooks who has to work hard, because Cam and Eason are already better on offense than Brooks.

    Cam reminds me of a more athletic Harden, bullies his way to the hoop

    I like Amen better, but where are all the haters at talking about it would have been a disaster to draft Cam at 4? A reach maybe, but definitely not a disaster. I'm not sure I take Brandon Miller over Cam to be honest.

    I mean there were those 2 fast breaks where he didn't pass the ball, clearly enough to brand him for life.

    We have Jeff Green as well. It looks like we have too many guys and not enough playing time for everyone.

    We should trade them all for the Clutch Fan superstars Tyty, JC and Garuba.

    Im guessing 37yo Jeff Green will get spot minutes in good matchups at best. With what they are paying, it looks like he's mostly there as a quasi-coach and emergency short term backup.

    #1. Yeah he is getting by entirely off physical talent. He was injured last year and had one of the worst coaches in college basketball - which he learned very little from. He also missed almost 1.5 years in high school… Cam is extremely raw and as you said, turned 19 a week ago , he should be entering his freshman year of college.

    #2. I would not read too much into his body language or his flat affect - that’s his personality. He rubs some the wrong way, but the effort is there. He hustles on plays and is very hard on himself. If I have any concerns with him, it is how he processes the game - but that MAY improve enough with adequate coaching for the first time.

    Are we watching the same player? You are talking about #7 Whitmore, right?
