That's not usually something you want to hear a player saying.

Where was Sheed again yesterday?

Out with a foot injury.

I thought he may have been injured but I'll keep saying it, if Camby could hit the 3 or look to shoot the 3 he'd be playing. It's pretty obvious why Woody is playing who he's playing. He's tied to Melo and wants players who give Melo multiple options to score on the floor. Therefore we run a spread chuck system.

I would hope not. That makes no sense since Camby should be coming in to relieve Tyson.

Woodson said Marcus Camby is fine physically and he has to be ready when his name is called.

"Until then I'll insist on using an out-of-shape Rasheed Wallace and James White, even if the other team has a free lane to the basket and we can't rebound the ball at all."

Amazing how the main reason...defense isn't being addressed.

Camby just need to be ready when his name is called. Until then he needs to be quiet.

Do we know if it was a players only dinner ? Were the coaches included ?

Woody was there. I guess you missed the teams Thanksgiving photo...

have you seen Camby when he's played. He has looked lost on the defensive schemes and his rebounding numbers have not been what Wallace is giving them.

Wouldn't mind seeing Camby place in the high pick n roll since he has a decent 15footer. Better than what Kurt has been giving us on the offense end. Kurt has had the touches when he was getting burn but only made like 1jump shot.

yea, but in fairness I watched camby and he looks heavy, and he just doesn't move that well now... with that said, we gave up josh harrelson who was a solid player for us.. Douglas who we misused while here, jerome jordan although not in rotation still a young 7 foot body... we gave up 2 second round picks and then gave camby a 3 year, 13.2 million dollar deal..

That is almost unheard of for a guy his age in this league... so I do wonder why he is not playing and if he doesn't then this will have proved to be a huge blunder by "Grunny"....

It's basically a 2 year deal- 3rd year only has $1mil guaranteed. Minimum contract length for a sign and trade was 3yrs, which is why we did what we did.

Jorts and Jerome Jordan weren't sought after by anyone really, after they got cut by the rockets- not huge losses really. Both will be FAs this offseason so we could get them both back for free if we want.

Camby has done stuff in the minutes he's played- rebounding and defensive plays- you notice him when he's on the court, he can still contribute.

it won't be for free, but let me ask, are we going to get those picks back? the key is jorts played well for us while he was here, so it is irrelevant if other teams had little interest, that should not diminish the value he had here with us... people need to get out of that kind of thinking....
