    Yes, I am the OP who started the thread wanting the Rockets to pick Cam at #4 and now I am starting a thread pleading for them to bench Bullock and give his absolutely meaningless minutes (because he is a league minimum scrub) to Cam. Reality is that he was 4b to Amen’s 4a and there’s no reason he shouldn’t be getting similar minutes. If Reggie was Austin Reaves or something I’d understand the situation, but anybody who has more than an acorn for a brain can see that he’s not and needs to be swapped with Cam before 0-3 becomes 0-6 and worse.

    pretty sure 0-3 can become 0-6 or worse, with or without Cam ;)

    Pretty sure they deserve to be down if they cannot beat the Hornets even.

    I agree with you. Watching Jeff Green and Bullock play more than Whitmore is annoying. Maybe Cam will save us!

    It's rare but we do agree on occasion and this is one of those.

    No more Bullock and a lot more Cam.

    I mean, I agree that we should give Cam a shot over Bullock at this point. But, I don't know if that'll contribute to more wins. It would still be nice to start developing him though, seeing how we're losing either way.

    The coaches and the GM are obsessed with Tate so good luck prying those minutes away from him.

    However injuries and/or trades are certainly likely to happen and I'm sure Cam will get an opportunity sooner than later.

    that’s sad… but funny… also true…

    where have we gotten to?

    Clutchfans logic:

    Jabari is trash. He can only play well in summer league.
    Play Cam more. He lit up the summer league.

    Agree that it may not contribute immediately to more wins, but it will down the road and I promise you he’ll bring more electricity to the anemic second unit.

    Cluchfans logic:
    Bullock is trash. He has never played well in 8 games as a Rocket.
    Play Cam more. Top five pick by many many accounts and summer league MVP.

    Do you mean Reggie "1-year contract, sure-to-be-thrown-into-a-trade when the time comes" Bullock?

    Mods might as well sticky this one. It's going to be a long Rollercoaster learning season and fans always need to plead for the next rookie to play as a magic elixir. This won't be the last time we see a variant of this thread.

    I want to see Cam play too but realistically, I'd more expect to see a mixture of Amen and Tate getting Bullock's minutes given what Udoka has shown us so far with his rotations.

    Make the title more attractive:

    Whitmore, Whitless, or Witless?
