    I haven't watched many Blazers/Rockets games, but based on what you all have seen from him last season, how would you write Camby's scouting report at age 38?

    lazy, careless, possibly stoned. Scared to really protect the lane.

    Really is he that bad? Judging based on his stats, and I know that's dangerous to do, he seems pretty decent averaging 5 points and 9 rebounds last season.

    Other then rebounding and coming over and blocking shots, not much good to say.

    Good passer for a big man. I'll give him that.

    meh. I know it's probably jaded portland fan in me, but I struggle to respect someone that quits on a team. Especially someone looked to be a leader.
    He will block weakside shots. And he will get easy rebounds within the scheme. He won't get tough rebounds. He won't really battle. I felt like the majority of his big rebound games, he was getting 75% of his boards uncontested, due to PDX's scheme.
    He's a solid passer, so will pair well with Amare, with Amare on the low block for a few oops. Horrible shot.

    I'll just say this: he really should have retired.

    10-15 MPG, and you'll get decent production.

    Spot minutes for sure.

    He caroms a lot of tip backs for extra possessions.
