I get that. But it’s funny to see people laud Cam’s game but make excuses like this to take away from Jalen’s.
well... the bar is completely different for the two players. We're still figuring out what Cam can be. Jalen we know he can probably tear up a bottom 5 defense no questions asked. Can he do it consistently, can he do it against good defenses and can he make winning contributions if his shot isn't falling... those all remain to be seen.
I think it's because Cam is a 19 year old rookie versus being in year 3. Plus the shooting form is near perfect. He just needs more experience
Rest of the Season should be about Development of Cameron and Amen!!!!!! Not some shite Play In or Playoffs.
I like what we're doing with Cam, bringing him along slow and making him earn it. He is going to have to learn how to play within the team concept and take good shots because he is prone to these episodes of black-hole-itis. We saw a little of the bad Cam tonight and also some of the good version. I'm fine with him being mainly a play finisher, but he still needs to pass if he doesn't have a good look or a mismatch. He needs to be brought along the right way if we want him to have a shot evolving into a #2 option long-term.
I really hope we continue to see a lot of Cam for the rest of the year. I think he might be the best open 3 point shooter on the team, and making open shots is something we desperately need. On that note we also need Jabari back.
Was just about to say, I'd take the average 3 pt % Captain Chaos provides, too. Definitely want his eloquent ass on the court instead of tweeting.
He had at least one good one tonight! I'm coming around on Cam. I still don't think he will ever be a "run your offense through him" kind of superstar, but he could be a really good two-way player who is the third, or perhaps even second, best player when we're contending. He just needs to be developed the right way. In a way I think he's actually pretty similar to Jabari. He has some limitations that make you doubt he'll ever take over games the way Alpi, or perhaps in the future Amen, can. But he could still be a key member of a championship squad down the road.
That is still the problem we have here.... Too many Robins or Night Wings and not that many Super Men or Bat men.
