None of this is Melo's Fault!!!!!! R u high? Now his poor defensive trips every other time down the floor are a problem and his constant bitching at calls is annoying but cambys playing time has absolutely nothing to do with it. and if u think woody is gonna play a top5 leading scorer in the league less to acomodate for a 38 yr old center ur nuts!
Camby should have gotten minutes in the 4th quarter yesterday when we were already blowing them out. What's up with Woodson's love for Sheed? He is playing too many minutes if you ask me. You don't give the guy that hasn't played in 2 years more minutes than a former DPOY that just came off a season averaging 9 rpg and 1.5 steals. Those are better stats than what Chandler has now, what gives?
I think we all saw why Camby didn't play much in the Nets game.
He played like crap. Plain and simple.
He needs to focus on rebounding first and then on defense. Let the game come to him instead of forcing so much.
Woodson isn't playing him much and when he does its for about 4-5 minutes a game. What the hell could you possibly get out of those sporadic minutes? You aren't making sense.
Give Camby a good 15 minutes and you will get production. I'm willing to put money on it. The guy hasn't forgot how to play basketball.
If only there was a way to swap Rasheed and Camby's contracts.
Guys are just too unfair to a guy who's yet to be given a fair chance. Do I need to pull up some old Dantoni threads where people were ripping him for not giving certain players a fair chance to produce??
You could make that argument for any NBA player. That he just needs minutes.
I'm tired of guys feeling entitled. Watching Camby get out hustled and destroyed on the offensive boards showed me a lack of effort. Maybe he needs more time to get back into shape or something, but at the very least, he shouldn't be whining about playing time. He should be earning it.
Case in point, Sheed got crap minutes and didn't complain at all. He joked about being okay with garbage time. He played himself into the lineup.
Sheed played like 3 games of garbage minutes and then was quickly insterted into the rotation as the main back up big.
I agree that Camby needs to get more time you have also look at it from a mental standpoint he's probably mad uncomfortable with the type of minutes he's getting so it could be hindering his production. Woodson rotations have been bad imo you gotta give him a chance yea Reggie Evans out rebounded him but Evans is one of the best offensive rebounders in the league and he's young.
Another day, another DNP. This is ridiculous. He deserves better. How is he meant to prove he can play (which we all know he can) when he gets no time or 5 min. Woodson's rotation have generally been garbage apart from a few games this year.
iBob is reporting that Camby is worse than we think, he's saying Camby is out 4-6 weeks!
Exactly what Ive been sayin green rep. He got those 4 or 5 minutes against the Nets and that was it. I believe Camby woulda been more effective if he had minutes where Reggie Evans wasnt in the game. Evans is a tough rugged dude thats just a bad matchup for Camby. The good news is he doesnt play on every team, only the Nets. Hence the reference, Woodson needs to give Camby more minutes.
Do we have any money left? we need a backup center because Camby isnt coming back anytime soon.
