    Nah, both are asked to do different things in game so you can’t compare them like that. Camara has the makings of a great role player though.

    I beat my neighbor one-on-one a couple weeks back. I’m 41. He’s 15.

    (I’m also 6’5” and he’s like 5’7”.)

    He isn’t better. He’s more experienced. All we are asking him to do is defend, rebound, and maybe hit a shot. We are asking Scoot to run the offense. Do you not see a difference?

    Camara is nearly 4 years older than 19-year-old Scoot.

    Win or lose I'm just excited to see an exciting up-paced brand of basketball being played. It's been a lot of years since I've been this enthused about the team.

    I agree surprised how much people are off the Scoot bandwagon. Kid is showing flashes game is starting to slow down and as long as he doesn’t get in his own head his shot will eventually start falling.

    Agree, very fun game, Shae looks really locked in this yr, and is playing his ass off - great to see. Awesome comeback win!

    Yes, I do. Scoot has the ball in his hands a lot more than Camara does, and yet Camara does more with his limited opportunities.

    Chauncey explaining in the post game how he was mad at Scoot and Shaedon for making a ton of defensive mistakes at the end of the 1st half - which is why he pulled both. I actually like it.

    I don't think anyone is going to argue Camara contributes more to winning than Scoot right now? That's not really the point though.

    Ant in Brogdons role next year would be ideal. Guy can light it up and would be a great 6th man.

    I’m not big fan of Grant feel like he’s really trying to force offense and 1 rebound is just ridiculous. We need offense but stop forcing shots and start being team player and rebound

    Right. That’s probably why he’s better already. He’s more NBA-ready.

    Meanwhile, Boston was just up by 50 points in their game against the Pacers.
