How different would this season be if Jalen and Cam's minutes were switched from day one?

    We wouldn't be seeing a guy throwing up 7 3's a game and only making 30% of them. that's the difference

    Cam already gives folks watching the shots he puts up on the perimeter the feeling it's going in every time. Even many of his misses are rolling in and out

    I don't think Cam would have been good to start, he was a rookie and JG deserved the chance to prove himself. That being said, JG has not lived up to his potential and Cam is ready to take his spot. I'm okay with how things have been done so far, but it's time. Maybe JG will get his act together off the bench.

    Of course, not likely JG gets benched the rest of this year though, but he is on thin ice..

    We haven't seen Cam play as a starter yet.

    Cam wasn't ready at the start of the season, just look at Amen at the start of the year vs now. Everybody saying we would be better is just using recency bias.

    Plus if anybody should start over Jalen it should be Amen not Cam. Cam has had some awful games when he started, Amen has balled out every time he started so far.
