    But he's just "immature".

    But he's only 21 years-old.

    Those excuse everything.

    All of Cam's issues are of his own doing. They always have been. He needs to study Christian Wood and learn from those mistakes. Attitude is going to determine if he stays in the NBA or dominates in some weird international league somewhere.

    Sometimes people don’t realize how good they have it until they do not. Guy could be playing for a ring this year and instead seems bent on finding his way off even the Bullets.

    We make excuses for ALL players;

    1) Reed just need more playing time, he's just young.

    2) If only Tari can stay healthy

    3) If only Amen can develop a 3pt shot

    4) If only Jabari can put more arch on his outside shot.

    Like I said with Jalen and KPJ, until they turn 25yrs old you just dont know who or what they are going to be, unless they are a LeBron, Kobe, KG type of player

    Sometimes it's harder to improve attitude than skills.

    Work ethic is such an important part for a player's success no matter how talented they are.

    After 25yrs old, you typically are who you are....there are no excuses.

    Are you being self-effacing again? I like it.

    The simple fact is, we put higher expectations on players improving then many of these players can actually do. We can certainly expect our young players to continue to grow but can't expect them to change their stripes. Our team is what it is right now and the only way to make it better is to fill in the holes we have. The largest hole is turnovers.

    To fix that we need a PG that not only is experienced but can get the ball exactly where KD and Sengun likes it to make shots. This would free up the 3-point line and driving lanes considerably. No star needed.

    He doesnt respect Keefe. He at least had a little respect for Ime. No wonder he's out. Still has a lot of growing to do. He might get traded from Washington this season if he keeps it up.

    Washington does not look bad actually, they might make a Play In push or at least make 13th place if they are committed.

    Whitmore gets 20-22 minutes per game....once he settles in after 50 games he might see his minutes increase to 25.

    People drawing the Devil on the wall are just overreacting........Whitmore is a role player.

    Their players are long term Coulibaly, Sarr, Will Riley and Carrington, right now Kyshawn George and Tre Johnson can be relied upon.

    Dude, that is one scene of many lol, I would not overreact to that.

    Is Whitmore an untamed beast and rampant idiot?

    Yeah, but I think he can still be put out there unlike Royce White.

    Damn, bro. I don't visit CF as much as I used to, but every thread I am reading your on DD's dick. Comes across as obsessed. Obsessed over another dude is not the look I would want. Chill a bit.

    Edit: Before you lump me in as having the same takes as DD, it's not that at all. Was here for the V-Span, DMo and KPJ takes. Dude is an avid fan just like us. No need to make it personal.

    Cheers, mate.
