    Down by 10 and then lost that quarter by 2 thanks to Cam/Holiday.

    Drafting a project at 4 who's a guard isn't encouraging. You usually draft bigs that high and give them the project title. Guards drafted this high are supposed to come in the league and at least have some type of offensive ability. But then again, I can't be mad at them drafting him that high when the lottery picks after him haven't shown anything either. It just sucks because he looks like he's about 3 years away from being serviceable.

    Whitmore is not having a good game but he has the aggressive mentality that I wish green had

    Cam just isn’t ready against this type of length and defensive intensity yet.

    That’s ok. He needs these reps to become the destructive scorer he will end up being

    Cam is getting a bit of a wakeup call--playing against a contender taking the game deadly serious is very different from playing in garbage time against mediocre teams' third units

    He was drafted 4th not 30th. There hasn't been a player drafted at 4 that wasn't expected to contribute right away. Stop with the ridiculous excuses. He needs to go to the G-league.
