    Okay, so he might be a dumb guy, we still shouldn't have given him away. That was subtle as hell and they're going to regret it.

    I wish I could try it at work but in 2025 I think you just get fired for sexual harassment lmao, I feel like it's such a random and disarming argument that it might just carry you through most situations.

    Cam's presence on the court was as subtle as a 2x6 to the back of the head.

    You just know that’s how stray dogs respond when the kept, neutered dogs bark at them from behind their fences.

    This

    and chasing that with a "how much you pay him" is of the most grade school comebacks as well, it's actually pretty funny.

    Why do you assume he is even mad? Think you are over reaching.

    If cam is saying defense is about effort and not skill and also says he could have been better on defense is that him openly admitting to not putting in the effort?

    You guys and your bias, he was a 20 year old TALENTED player who was immature - I am sure most of you were the same at 20, I certainly was....

    He will be a very good player.

    Ime traded this man in favor of FVV & DFS. One of who will not play this season & the other can’t even start the season

    EXACTLY, Ime is far too into vets, and VETS get injured....Young talented bucks are needed......again, we GAVE Cam away for NOTHING, right now we don't have a single SG on the team.........Cam would probably had a good shot at starting.

    Cam and Reed should be competing who starts next to Amen and loser is the spark plug off the bench. Now we just pray Reed doesn’t sh*t the bed

    I was immature when I was a 20 year old. But, I still got after it at work. And If someone had offered me 3 million bucks to play basketball, I would have moved so fast I would have just been a blur.

    It still irks me Stone just gave Cam away for nothing. Hearing Cam said he didn't even asked to be traded kinda rubs me the wrong way but whatever, it's over with.

    I hope we don't just trade away future draft picks because we can't play them because championship teams often have good young players coming off the bench.

    If anything, this quote shows Cam's growth. His relationship with Ime was baptized in fire. It wasn't going to work.

    Well that doesn't say much for Ime then does it?

    Great coaches find ways to motivate ALL players, especially the talented ones.
