[KendrickPanther]

Remember last season the Panthers were talking about Cam's mind coach.

[X-Clown]

I'm seriously confused I really thought he was grits?

Sarcasm meter not working?

Alright I lose :P

Just added the audio on the OP.

[YOLO!]

Interesting both Cam and Dwight Howard both have a lot in common.

 

Both are viewed as immature by the media.

Both have the nickname superman.

Both are viewed as team cancers by the media.

 

 

Hopefully Cam/Dwight prove the doubters wrong this year.

[YOLO!]

Nah, I think Cam is closer to LeBron than Howard. Dwight, while an impressive specimen, is limited.

I have never heard of Cam being called a "team cancer". Can you give some examples?

You know the Cam sitting on the bench by himself with a towel on his head.

His after game press conferences.

Immature doing the Superman chest rip while losing the game.

 

They don't actually call him a team cancer, but they throw this stuff out as being a team cancer.

That's examples the media uses as being immature, but not a "cancer".

Doesn't being immature play a part in being a team cancer?

 

TO was considered a team cancer why? His attitude/immaturity.

 

It's not like TO was a bad guy off the field.

 

 

Personally I don't think Cam is a team cancer, he just hates losing and doesn't know how to deal with it with the media. I know he will only get better and he has learned from his mistakes last year. 

[YOLO!]

It doesn't matter what gif you decide to use, you're wrong.

Dwight is an athletic center but he's still just a center. There's a reason why Howard is not a forward -- his offensive prowess is abysmal from anywhere that's not under the rim. Sorry, but horrible comparison. Great shot blocker and rebounder, but limited.

LeBron is the much stronger comparison.

lol how am I wrong?

 

I posted a gif, never gave an opinion.

I was watching a replay of the Alabama Auburn game during Cam's Junior year. Alabama was up like 24-0 or something....yep you guessed it. Shots of Cam with a towel on his head. I guess he was being immature when he lead his team back to victory that day. Those scowls and outbursts of frustration clearly cost them that game...

[CashNewton22]

Hey man I'm all for it. I love Cam but he was a little immature coming into the league.....like most if not all of us are/were at his same age. You can see him maturing and growing as a leader this summer and if Jerry West's (alleged) involvement helps in any way then bravo. Either way Cam has seemed to grow and that bodes well for us Panther fans.

I just want to see our team as a whole come together this year and get us back into the playoffs.
