    He’d be a rental for the rest of this year, so he would need to be cheap. He has not been good this year, so far.

    interesting. Not sure who the Warriors would have left. Dray, Steph, KD…. I actually don’t think that’s a contending team without anyone else, and the injury risk is very high. Hard to believe GS depletes their entire team and future assets for 2 yrs of KD. But agreed that would certainly give the Suns more flexibility to improve their team down the line. I don’t want to give the Suns their picks back. I’d rather trade them to an eastern conference team or squeeze them for Booker. I don’t think we are ready to contend this year so I’d rather be patient. Maybe add a Brogdon type but ride this thing out this year.

    We saw him in the Gleague in person and one of my son's who is a D1 Soccer player and captain of his team said he would NEVER want Cam on any team that his body language and negative attitude when others had the ball or made a mistake was team crushing.

    I think he needs a good BOOT in the ass coach - and if Ime isn't going to do that, and basically break him, then fine, move him on.

    He has issues - all of them maturity related but his talent is the kind that blows up in a good way, or a bad way, sorta like KPJ......honestly.

    So, it is up to CAM.....and if the org wants to let him go because he doesn't fit or is a distraction, well, then he goes.

    If FVV is going to miss significant time (only the Rockets know) they’ll go for better than Brogdon who is not shooting the three well this year.

    I think Brogdon will be available in the buyout market in about 3 days.

    How was he & Ime's relationship (pause)?? Am I doing that right? (no diddy)

    Yeah, ain’t nothing happening. Didn’t Codman do the bird reference years back? I trust the man, but I just don’t see any trade happening that benefits us, though I guess he’s saying it will be through free agency since he expect something to happen after a few days when Butler is traded, but it’s only 2 days left..

    Yea I was gonna ask if he had an account himself or knew about CF, but ended up not. Very random. Maybe next time.

    I think we can do it with Brooks, fillers and picks. At worst one of Cam or Reed but I would fight them for those guys, those are essentially top 10 picks. I think Phoenix would prefer picks anyway, it's a more easily tradable currency.

    What can contenders offer for him? Other than OKC who I doubt would do it, who's going to deplete their small draft stash for Durant? Those teams need someone long term for what they're giving up - we can outbid them I think. For us it's actually perfect that Durant has 2.5 years remaining. I would want him gone by then anyway for Jabari to start.

    Just imagine the space for Amen, Green and Sengun man. FVV and Durant are the exact 2 adults we need on the floor with those 3.

    It’s stupid to trade Cam and keep Jalen. We know who Jalen is. It’s like watching the same movie over and over again.

    Call me a hater because I honestly don’t remember anything codman got right. Or maybe because his riddles were all too fuzzy that I didn’t know what he was leaking in the first place. SMH

    Another Ime type who plays defense but can’t shoot (didn’t know he was still playing either). How many of those players we’re going to keep getting while the Rockets go through shooting droughts?

    I go back and forth, I do think Cam will be far and away the better player, he just needs time - I think Jalen plays scared - and he makes the game harder on himself even Barkley said it.

    I just wish Ime would stop trying to force Jalen to be the go to guy, he isn't it.

    Durant only has 1 1/2 years left. He is a free agent after next year.

    What did it for me was the last game against Brooklyn. I cant remember who hit the floor (might've been Holiday or Tate) but Cam was wanting the ball and the other player went for a layup. Missed, knocked it out of bounds and turn fell to the ground in the process.

    Cam didnt even try to help his teammate up. His body language and the way he carries himself is just off. I dont mind guys who are a little off, but I just feel like is a shadow that follows him around and he doesnt pass the vibe check.

    As much as I like his game, id be fine with moving him in a package for a roster upgrade.

    FVV
    Booker
    Amen
    Jabari
    Sengun

    I honestly wouldn't mind giving the suns Green if we don't have to give up as much draft capital although I would prefer booker then. If we add KD I wouldn't give up Green, Reed + Cam + Tate + picks
