    It's almost like Cam feels like he needs to be a on a team committed to tanking so he can have a green light, but this will surely keep him from becoming the kind of player that will get regular minutes a contender.
    We saw this with Cam Thomas- there is really not a lot of interest in him as a RFA despite the great scoring.

    Good thing his team won then, the Washington reporters giving him B+ so they must have seen somethings.

    Still immensely Raw.

    They have more jumpshooters, calling Whitmore the best athlete since Bilal Coulibaly.

    At least the minutes wouldn't be guaranteed as they have more prospects than they could handle.

    That is fair, I never said he was a great player though.

    Just talented enough to make things interesting once in a while, he is still 2 years younger than Jalen you know.

    I'll report back on Cam's progress when I'm sitting court side at a 7-42 Wizards game this year.

    Hopefully KD's presence will help ensure the Rockets beat the Wizards.

    Our team had a maddening propensity to play down to competition last season. God knows Cam will want to drop 50 on us; that, too, must be prevented.

    Cam will do great in Washington - and will get a good contract, I can't see this thread - as the op is on ignore.

    Lots of people sure care what I think.....it makes me warm and fuzzy.

    Go Rox.

    humbled? was KJ asking for something more before being traded? The NBA is so unrelenting. You can be a core piece than traded and become a journeyman player. KJ's dad started crying on Gil's arena talking about KJ being traded. he knew.

    KJ was asking the Rox to trade him iirc cuz he wanted more mins. His father was extremely critical of the front office conveniently forgetting it was Stone who saw something in his son to begin with.

    Just some people get so much glaize/bad advice they take everything for granted.

    Whitmore got into a great situation, a winning team with good vibes. Now he about to find out. Actually he is prob already finding out since he got a DNP CD in their last preseason game.

    His teammates didn't look too happy with him. Cam was wide open and they didnt pass him the ball
