Cam Whitmore traded to Wizards for 2 2nd round picks

Still terrible but at least something to build on. Carrington is nice. I saw him live in DC.

 

This is a perfect encapsulation of your basketball knowledge. Watch highlights then assume you know something. For literally 25 years I’ve had to read your moronic takes on marginal players. Takes that are said thousands of times. Over and over. I know I’m not the only one that ends up hating guys you fall in love with just cause you like them. That’s how terrible you are.

 

Reed was sent to the G League anyway. That "favoritism" outlook should have quickly ended.

Total minutes 1st 6 games last year:
Cam: 47
Reed: 39
Cam played MORE minutes than Reed to start the season.

Then Cam had a DNP, played a 5 minutes garbage time game, then went to the G League.

Cam at that time had 1 total 3 pointer, 3 total assists, almost fouled out in 2nd game. Season started in October. Cam didn't get his 2nd three pointer until almost CHRISTMAS.

If an offense only player like Cam is not hitting shots, he's darn near unplayable. It does not seem Reed was "gifted" time. It looked like Cam played himself out, or attituded himself out, or both.

Even if Reed was given free minutes.. Imagine the #3 PICK IN THE DRAFT not being expected to play meaningful minutes. (And the ego blow for Reed himself, of rare event of #3 pick sent to G League). Should Cam be mad that Amen "jumped ahead" of him too? That's like Jaesean Tate being mad "I was a STARTER on this team, they're playing them Tari Bari Shmari whatever boys over me, I can't get no minutes now?"

 

Nope.

That was 100% a personal choice of yours buddy.

 

I have an unfortunate account of trying to give the "high ability but me-first attitude" types some "mentor" counseling and space. It cost me, and them, and everyone, badly.

Everybody hates Draymond Green, but that's basically what people want in a coach. To tussle with the rowdies. For the Cam Whitmores to be "reigned in".

 

All the best to him.

 

reigned in not thrown away.

 

Wow, didn't realize how many guards/wings they have until I saw it laid out like that. Cam is still going to have to earn his minutes, lol. That's a team needs another big man

 

I think they are one of the teams doing it right and they will get there. Just collecting assets and seeing where it gets them. Pretty much the winning formula in today's NBA.

Just collect your draft picks and put them on the floor and see what you got.

 

Unflattering.

 

Nobody wants Quitmore outside of losing garbage teams

 

Bad body language
Low basketball IQ
Delusions of grandeur
Inconsistent

hopefully he balls out in Washington to prove us all wrong
