    Yeah that's new to me as well. But athletes can still be great with asthma. David Beckham has asthma. Deandre Jordan. And even Rockets Legend James Harden has asthma.

    Seems like he is putting Cam in the Forward category with Thompson being a PointForward

    But you may be on to something, Cam may be coming for Holiday and Green minutes, I doubt it, but I feel that is the reason Ime didn't mention Green, a shooting guard trying to find that shooting rhythm(confidence)

    So its really Cam vs. Holiday

    Seems he's putting him more at the forward than shooting guard position. I believe Cam is more of a shooting guard than a small forward. I'd really like to see him take some of Green's minutes when Green is struggling. Unfortunately, Cam is not getting any playing time outside of garbage time anytime soon, barring some injuries.

    In IME we trust!

    What's your take on Cam potentially addressing some of the Rockets' scoring issue? Apart from Ja Green, do we have anyone else on the wing who can create their own shot?

    I think Cam should be given mins to bolster our bench offense obviously. Holiday offense is inconsistent, Eason holds his own, and Tate offense is nonexistent. Jeff Green offense is there but he's old as fk. If ime still is withholding mins from Cam he's seeing something we don't just gotta trust him especially if we are still having a positive overall record

    He is good for the slashing and dunking part but I am not so sure about 3 point shooting, it is one of the things that he is not really an expert at as well.

    Are you sure it is 6 ft and not 5 or 4.
