Vance says Camby likely to be moved. Ford says maybe Matthews.

Kenny just said on The Game that Camby may be milking his injury in order to avoid getting traded before the deadline.

LOL....when was his surgery? 4 weeks ago? I am sure if someone wanted him they would take the chance and sign off on him. Vance irrates me.

Wesley has been a much-needed shot in the arm, but he has a PER of 15.2, and he has the worst Drtg (109) of the current starting 5 (tied with Batum, but Nic has an Ortg of 116, and Matthews is at 111), which is even odder considering the team has a Drtg of 107. If teams want him, Cho needs to consider what he could get in return, IMO.

I don't disagree with much of the post, but I don't think we'd get in return a not-even-close-to-his-prime SG who's already playing above average starter level...AND who takes the top or 2nd-hardest D assignment every day with a smile on his face. Maybe I'm wrong. Hypothetically, what's the caliber of player you'd be ok getting back for Wes? A project type like Randolph? Harris?

I wonder if it may having something to do with Camby never coming back early from an injury.

Nah, he has to be milking it just this time.


If you were Camby would you trust Portland's medical staff to give you the best advice possible?
I would take whatever timeline they gave me and add 25% to it at least.

Dude wants to have a long career and not be crippled when he gets older.
Probably a smart move.

Camby....... OLDER!?!? He is a grandfather in NBA years!

 

[Nate Dogg]

I want to keep Camby and see how he does the rest of the year. Why trade him?
Just like Cho and Pritchard , PA is taking things very cautious on his players and movement.

I meant when he is in his 60's he doesn't want to have to walk with a cane.

Yea I saw it, he said camby would consider retirement if he was traded anywhere except Houston. Brousssard said if Houston could somehow land Carmelo then they would go for camby to make a serious run at a title this year.

if Portland were to move Camby to Houston, I'd hope it would be Kyle Lowry (not Brooks) that they're getting back as part of the package. Lowry + Brad Miller would work salary wise

I'd want them to throw in Jordan Hill too.

Agreed.

Do you think Houston would take Outlaw for Lowry? Or would New Jersey be "crazy" for considering that deal?

Ah, the good ol' days of arguing with PapaG on this board!
