    Thank you for this thread. Now all the Cam lovers have a place to come and impale themselves whenever he has a good game.

    @DaDakota is weeping tears of joy. Cam is not in Los Angeles, he is back in his stomping grounds, and on a squad that will appreciate his 20 points per game.

    Being from Maryland, that is a 35 minutes bus ride to DC......not far from his birth place.

    Also not that far from Villanova.

    I'm definitely interested to see how this goes. Glad he's in the East on the off chance that DD is right for a change (broken clock, etc). I think Cam can put up numbers if he gets to play real minutes--on the wizards, maybe he gets to be a 6th man and play 20+ minutes per game? The issue is whether he can make a positive impact on winning. You can't just score anymore in today's league, you have to do multiple things well.

    I think with his attitude, he turns into a Michael Beasley/Lance Stevenson. A guy who has obvious talent but just has zero basketball intuition. He is young but I just don’t see him growing up and putting it together. If he gave off ANY vibe that he was willing to change, I think Houston would’ve seen that in him.

    Right or wrong; you have to do what the “boss” tells you to do. Ime is the boss and rather than conform, he decided to throw his tantrums. You see why he fell in the draft and why he had issues in his short stint with Villanova. You also see teams that need talent in this league not even try to offer Houston anything.

    I wish Cam all the best when he’s drilling 3’s in the Big3.

    Nah, if KPJ can work his way back and work his magic with the Bucks, that dude is golden.

    This league has seen worse offenders than just sulking on the bench.

    I remember one Ömer Asik that sulked here but was pretty integral to the Chicago Bulls..... his time here does not matter as long as one NBA team believes in him.

    Ime Udoka himself is a little crazy, not the easiest coach to deal with.

    If he has mental health issues, he better come forward with it before it is too late.

    Well, basically what kept Carmelo Anthony in the league was scoring, shooting and rebounding.....lol.

    This is one of the worst trades the Rockets have made. We will look back on this one with deep regret. All he needed was playing time! :mad:
