<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>James Augustine Says Camp Not A Great Showcase 10th June, 2006 - 6:30 am Chicago Sun-Times - Former Illinois bigman James Augustine, judged by many to be a second round pick, sounded a bit discouraged Friday about the games at the NBA's predraft camp. "As games went on, it kind of got out of control a little bit,'' said Augustine. ''People were getting down on each other and stuff like that instead of just playing basketball." "I wish I could have done a little bit more. In this type of atmosphere, it's like playing in the Nike or Adidas camps again: The shots are going up; there's really not much ball movement. It's not a real game almost, so it's kind of hard to show what you can really do in a game situation.'' [READ]</div> Welcome to the NBA James Augustine. I agree that these camps are nothing great but they do help scouts figure out players.
