    I don’t care about his flaws. He’s a smart kid who has a great basketball IQ. ALL I SAID WAS HE ISNT IN GREAT SHAPE, AND ITS CONCERNING THIS FAR IN THE SEASON. Then all you bat shit crazy soccer moms attacked me saying he’s doing so great 17/20 is great. Who the fuck said it was t???

    Sure, but how often is there a center as dominant as Jokic, plus a red hot shooter like Murray to deal with? The point was simply that Camara showed he can play small ball center against the best center in the game, so he's more than capable of it in most other match-ups. His ability to cover multiple players within the same action allows the defense to be unpredictable when he doesn't have to focus on one player like Jokic.

    what are you gauging his conditioning by....his facial expressions? Gauging by that Jokic is near collapse half of the time. Are you timing his 40 yard sprint? Counting his heart rate?

    I'm gauging more by results because it's less subjective. His total rebounding rate is 22.7% which is better than Sabonis's league leading 22.2%. His offensive rebounding rate is 18.5% which is a lot more than Kessler's 16.4%. His Blocked shot rate of 8.8% is 2nd only to Wemby at 10.1%. Assuming he had enough minutes to qualify without significantly sacrificing rate's he'd either lead the league or be top-2 in all those gauges

    he just played a 31 minutes in a game at mile elevation and had 20 rebounds, 10 on offense, 3 blocks, and shot 7-12, going against a 3 time MVP. I seriously doubt he could do that if he was in bad shape

    I've said a couple of times in this thread that the best way to get in game-shape is to consistently get lots minutes in lots of games. Billups hasn't allowed him to do that

    Not sure if you been reading stuff here lately, but it’s a handful of people like that, always bitching and complaining about something. I guess it’s the “Portland” thing to do.

    This is hilarious!!!

    guy calls other posters lemmings, cusses in the OP with a dramatic post and has no clue why he gets the responses he gets and proceeds to call everyone else soccer moms for blasting him!
    some people just need to stay out of the damn kitchen.

    And i used to want to be part of the “cool club” around here. LOL!

    I agree with what Wizen said cause he needs to after the AS break start getting 25 to 30 min per game and if he does not then someone at Blazer HQ needs to be fired - -Period

    Now with Ayton out for a month ( thank god ) he will prolly get this but even if Ayton was healthy I would still be saying this too.
