Cam Whitmore traded to Wizards for 2 2nd round picks

I dont think the other players have a problem with Cam. Tari and Cam were bonding last offseason.

I think this is just an Udoka power play first he wanted KD now he wanted Cam gone. He just signed a big deal so he has lots of clout in the org.

I dont like how we keep getting older.

 

True! But this one feels much different...

 

Stone had many bad off-season moves but somehow got lucky that it didn'tpan out, maybe not this time.

Sengun was his backup center to Bruno, Lopez
Jalen Green was his future superstar to build around

Oladipo ridiculous offer that he declined

Amen wasn't given a chance until an injury forced the team to use him when he was obviously the best talent

 

We are still over the cap. Not sure but this move might put us under the luxury tax threshold.

 

Garbage asset management - hold onto him until the deadline and you get this return at least!

right when I was ready to give stone his flowers, this is definitely a blemish to the offseason.

 

Just hearing about the trade....my initial reaction is we got ripped off and Ime REALLY didnt like Cam...they sent him to the Wizards...that place is a career blackhole but I bet he'll score more than 20+ppg next year.

 

Clippers in 5.

 

I'm glad Cam will have the opportunity to ballhog as much as he wants while scoring 18 points on inefficient numbers. We will then get to hear I told you so from the fans that were yearning to develop him even if it meant winning less.

Hope you Cam fans go to punish yourselves and watch Wizards games this season.

 

You know the Wizards just drafted Tre Johnson and will prioritize getting him shots over Cam, right?

I think it will be a competition and the better player will come out on top......I suspect Cam will be starting there.

the wiz have a huge incentive to be bad this year. Not only are they trying for a top 3 pick in this amazing draft, but also their 2026 2nd rounder has protections on it. The Knicks get it if it’s not high enough (can’t remember the exact protection). The fact that they couldn’t even pry that from the Wiz tells u a lot.

 

I wasn't expecting much. A 1st-round pick would’ve been awesome, but I was expecting a 2nd.

Two 2nd-round picks aren’t garbage. Remember, it took five of them to get Durant.

Cam has some serious game, but also some serious limitations. The biggest concern seems to be his mindset. That’s one of the hardest things to address, but he’s still young and might pan out.

(Haven't read everything here) I think this was mutual - Cam’s camp pushed for a trade, and the Rockets didn’t make much effort to keep him.

 

Cam Whitmore has to play better than

Bilal Coulibaly, SF - Best Player on the Team
Alex Sarr, PF - 2nd Pick, Can breakout
Tre Johnson, SG
Khris Middleton, SF
C.J. McCollum, SG
Marcus Smart, PG
Corey Kispert, SF
Kelly Olynyk, PF
Richaun Holmes, C

Cam Whitmore has a uphill battle for playing time.

 

At least he was traded to an Eastern Conference team and a lousy one at that. So he won't be burning the Rockets for years to come(provided he isn't traded back to the West anytime soon).

But I sincerely hope this doesn't come back to bite us in the ass. Ime clearly didn't like the guy and never wanted to play him. He would've sat on the bench his entire rookie season had Tari not gotten hurt.

 

I’ll laugh my ass off next year when Cam puts up big numbers (he mostly will coz of more playing time and opportunities), but remains a selfish chucker with subpar efficiency, and still doesn’t play a lick of defense. We’re better off without him.

 

Chicago 2nd, Sacramento 2nd. Both can be High 2nd Round.

 

The best analogy for Cam Whitmore is the super hot chick with a toxic personality.

Yeah, we got rid of a locker room cancer, but it sure doesn't feel good.

 

Bill O'Brien and Ime Udoka have a lot in common being bad GMs, Coaching is different story. Ime Udoka benching players is routine for him.

Jack Easterby was terrible with the Texans.

 

Trading Cam for air? Lol
