    Yeah insane how DD managed to curse a guy into only hitting 11% of his 3's in the first couple games. I wonder if we could convince him to be like a massive Wemby fan or something?

    They are playing NBA(big boy) defense on Cam and Reed….I do not think Cam or Reed is too good for Summer League

    If Sheppard sits more than 20 or 30 seconds, the Rockets lead will be gone.

    All of Whitmores worst qualities on full display today.

    No plan B and brutal tunnel vision. He decides to do one thing, and he's gonna attempt that thing regardless of how the defense reacts.

    Now he's getting visibly frustrated and forcing things even more than usual.

    Cam's meal ticket in the NBA is catch and shoot 3s, running and finishing on the break, cutting to the basket and alley-oops. Beating people off the dribble, posting up, turn-arounds, etc he can't do.

    This is why I've really never seen him as anything more than a gun off the bench. His career will be defined by his 3-point shooting.

    You can't blame him really, Reed's the only person on the court who actually looks like an NBA caliber basketball player haha

    Cam Whitmore feeling himself too much. Bad defense, doesnt even out his hand up and has extreme tunnel vision. Honestly extremely disappointing considering this has been his problem since last year.

    One thing I'm finding out is that Nate Williams isn't as good as I thought he was when he's made a more primary focus of the offense. lol.

    Josh Christopher 2.0, basically the same impact/stats, just Jalen hasn't bummed him.
