Someone tell Cam Thomas he's showing too much emotion.

When he had the ball inside, I'm like "It's okay to use board!"

Where are all the Cam Thomas haters right now?

Its obvious this guy is SPECIAL offensively. He should be starting and play a ton of minutes. Vaughn is a moron for not doing it earlier last season.

Ben had some bad misses, but overall he wasn't bad.

I expected little bit more from Ben , at least on the defensive end

Mikal is kind of quiet and invisible as well as Cam Johnson

CamT is the man so far

Only reason the nets are in this game is because of Cam. Why do they restrain this guy?

He is trash. Teams do not care if he scores 50, because he won't get teammates involved and he cannot read the floor. The bench is where he belongs.

Might be a good idea to cover Strus.

I'm still not a Cam Thomas believer, but not sure how anyone can criticize him for this game. Dude is straight up carrying us offensively. Dinwiddie, Johnson, Bridges, Simmons...these guys are giving us NOTHING. Thomas is the only one actually creating any sort of reliable offense.

Got home late. Offense seems to be flowing much better right now than last season. And we're clamoing down on defense right now.

Thomas only creates for himself. During crunch time, defenses will start throwing different looks at him and he will not make the adjustment.
