Really excited about this one. Cam is awesome. See you bright and early tomorrow.
Cam Thomas came into the NBA and got to watch 3 elite bucket getters daily. Thats underrated af
U are SOOOOOOO ON POINT WITH THAT COMMENT
@@leogitelszzzharden averaged 36ppg in 2018 that's more than KD or Kyrie have ever averaged
Much rather get buckets yourself 😂
Bro got a harvard education in buckets
@@leogitelszzzman harden was high in mvp voting bruh what are you smoking
Pulling for Cam to keep developing as a passer and defender because pure bucket-getters like him are sooooo fun to watch
as a passer he's definitely improving and as a defender he will get there he puts in the effort which I love about him
He's already improved a ton in both this season. Even if he's not an amazing defender, you can tell that its not due to lack of effort. It's been great to see
I’ve liked his development so far this year. He doesn’t get tunnel vision nearly as much as he used to
@@edw1n2
He gets tunnel vision because he was getting inconsistent minutes. So whenever he got an opportunity he just went for his.
He’s on the wrong podcast then. 😅
it's crazy how starting vs coming off of the bench affects players' mentality, even more so at the professional level
It goes to show that no matter what level you’re at in life, it all comes down to your mental.
You’re seeing it in GS right now with Kuminga and Moody. Allows you to get better rhythm.
@@newrecruit100 imo it's more about the touches rather than starting or coming off the bench, as far as rhythm goes
@@chousan1024I agree with both you guys, starting makes it easier to get into rhythm, but ultimately rhythm is about touches
I swear these long form conversations are the best thing ever.
Every single time I listen to these dudes just talk about the game we all love I walk away a bigger fan of the individual. Thanks for the pod.
Cam is so young. Just like a kid that lives down the block. Then, whoops, he's an elite NBA scorer. I just hope he can remain a modest nice guy, and not get lost in all the attention he's gonna get.
love that jj is in brooklyn bc the media hates the nets this the only mainstream channel that sometimes covers/interviews nets players
Cam seems so calm and relaxed, and he plays that way as well. He plays very calm and relaxed and then ZOOM he turns on the speed. He is deceptively very quick.
I like Cam Thomas.. with his mindset on the court I thought he'd be feeling himself a little more, but I like the humility and depth he seems to have
Only ppl shocked are ppl aren’t tuned in he been elite scorer in hs and middle school
Rooting for Cam he deserves it and has a great mentality that will help in the near future. Love the Podcast and content JJ
Finally, something to smile about.
Cam Thomas is my favorite NBA player
NO WAY YALL GOT THE GOAT CAM THOMAS
Killa CAM..... Nets world 🌎🖤🗽💯🤞🏾
Please drop this full interview asap as a nets fan and a cam Thomas fan I can’t wait for this
Im a nets fan from England became a nets fan in 2016 when dlo, rhj ,prince and Dudley was on the team the fun basketball attracted me and ive been a fan ever since. they remind me if the football/soccer team I support arsenal its the underdog mentality I love so much. im 26 now whenever I play 2k im on the nets or free agent there
cam has been fave player on the nets since he got drafted I always wanted him to get big minutes and im finally happy he's stepped up and taking advantage of it. Him and spenc if they can form a great guard partnership will be amazing to watch spend is such a underrated passer too
similar story here
Cam Thomas forever 🖤
I believe alot of young player like Kuminga goes through the exact same frustrations. Even Moses Moody but he doesn't really show the frustrations.
Cam has a refreshing game… like a young Jr Smith
Obviously not the same level, but I went through this as a sophomore. Hit a huge growth spurt and got all awkward for a bit. Was so hard not knowing when or for how long I’d get in from night to night.
Nets Legend 🗽
Oh we needed this episode
Cam is a great Samoan basketball player
when people like KD and Jamal Crawford recognise a gem,the people need box office hits every game
Cam seems real cool mature and down to earth
great snippet this is a really interesting topic that fans definitely don’t think about…always love the discussions and excited to hear the full episode
This guy was under the tutelage of KD and Kai for couple of years. He will be a star very soon
No he wasn't he was always that guy
@@warrydudyeah but nobody knew that because he was under KD and Ky. That's the whole point of dudes comment.
KD , KY and Harden*
true u can tell just by the way he plays kai and kd definitely had a big impact on him , his layup and middy package so underrated, his contested 3s are insane its like they are not there sometimes he scored one against Dallas this season I was like wtf how
@dsboy4120 Nah mostly Kai and KD. Harden wasn't there long and had his own injury rehab issues. He was chill with Cam tho
I hope he continues to get minutes. He’s a fun player to watch, and can be a star. Hopefully Jacque Vaughn won’t pull the bullshit he did last season.
he's our best player he's definitely gonna get more minutes jacq trusts him now ive been waiting for this day since he got drafted
That wasn't on Vaughn but Marks. Vaughn when he came in gave Cam more minutes than Nash ever did. Just when those trades happen all of a sudden Cam couldn't Crack rotation with Dinwiddie and Mikal Bridges getting more reps. Kai and KD were close with Cam so something must have happened between Cam and Marks for him not to get rotation
@@12Kcalicobest player come on bro best offensive scorer is ok but best player is crazy
Tommy always have great questions
I swear he asks exactly what everybody wanna know straight to the point
From Sono (South Norfolk) to Brooklyn 😤😤😤
His sister was my track & field teammate in college. I remember her taking him to basketball practice and always posting his high school basketball highlights. I don’t know him personally, but I remember seeing him lol glad to see he made it! 🫡
He’s a lot more explosive than he looks
Great guest
Cam made himslef undeniable. Respect. 💪🏀🙏
I like when they give Tommy credit for his good questions
cam is best offensive weopon nets have this year period
Wasn’t expecting cam Thomas to be here🔥🔥he’s a walking bucket
Exciting player to watch
God damn that was a good question
I love these, i just have to point out how insane sports can be after some time. JJ Redick was at best the second or third most important player on a contender, to go to DNP and not even told about it, i mightve retired on the spot 😂
Dude was born to score buckets
Ever since i saw the first few summer league games from Cam new he was eventually going to be a leading scorer for the team (didn’t expect it to happen as quickly as it did though)
damn they are doing tommy dirty with the camera angles.
Future all-star nets have a great young core
Mean pod but sometimes it feels like JJ's interviewing himself with the guest listening.. hopefully more from Cam on the full pod
The Brooklyn Way 👏🏾
MORE TOMMY
Thumbnail make him look passionate as hell JJ 😂😂😂
Toast to JJ and Tommy. Best basketball junkie pod on the planet
@jjredick you guys have a dead pixel on the guest camera, on what would be Cam’s right chest/shoulder area, you see a constant white dot. Just a heads up. Love the show. ✌️
lmaaao all time quote "how can u find out if ur on fire...u gotta find out?"
So he does smile ! lol
I want the back story on why Steve Nash was hating on him so bad
Put my boy in the game. He’s the best scorer on the NETS by far.
Cam sounds like CJ McCollum
#FreeCam
He’s the best scorer on the nets!
Send Cam Thomas to Minnesota for Shake Milton. Cam and Edwards would be nasty
Damn Jj let the kid talk. You benching him in the interview 😂
Please interview Obi Toppin Next and ask him about his experience in NY
So what is he? A sixth man, starter, all star potential, sixth man of the year potential? I think he’s had one of the most confusing starts to an NBA career that no one is sure there is a clear roadmap to what he can become
He's averaging an efficient 27ppg this year, holding his own on defense, has been playing in the flow of the offense instead of just iso ball. Sky's the limit
Reminds me of a Donovan Mitchell w a super short leash
Wished we had this dude in the rockets 🚀
I think we’re missing a real bucket getter it should be Jalen green but he’s been underperforming
he is being held back big time he can be the main scorer on mostly and franchise he needs to get a trade, even tho he needs to work on passing and defense he can be the main option on a team become like a booker in the near future
Hey JJ interested in coaching the cavs ?
JJ clear your throat ! Damn !
Cam Thomas for MIP!!! Come on baby DeShaun gonna owe me a can of coffee!!!
Sound like Keith Lee
I. Am. A. King. 👑
This seemed to be a video all about JJ.
elite rifler fahreal
He got to watch KD Kyrie and Harden practice often and learn from them. It’s not a lot of players that can say that they watched three of the best scorers at their position.
Rather than waiting to get in you need to be watching cam
Can the man
I’d like someone to tell Cam the same thing D’Antoni told James Harden: you could lead the league in assists as a pg. He may not quite be able to get there, but there’s no reason he couldn’t be a legit playmaker for others with his skills and the shooting on the Nets.
James Harden was OKC's best playmaker from the jump, Cam got serious tunnel vision. I like Cam allot but on a contender his ceiling is 6th man bucket getter.
@@matthewlawson2675as long as he scores then that's all that matters
Playmaking is left to the other guys.
Plz get Kai Jones
what does the other dude at the table even bring to this show lol
Coffee and donuts
Sean Marks and Steve Nash tried to sabotage his career
cam would be a 35 min a game guy if he was a dependable defender. His offensive talent is undeniable that he doesnt even need to be a good defender, just anything other than a net negative
Coach gotta play himmmmm, stop stunting homie growth!!
Honest question who ya’ll think is better /more talented Cam Johnson or Jordan Poole? 🤔
Lol
Cam
Did u mean Cam Thomas?? Cuz either way i'd say both Cam's are more talented but Thomas is definitely the most talented out the 3
What’s dmp
Listened to this without watching it and thought bro was 21 savage
Cam Thomas is a 1st option on many teams in the league
Many lottery teams at the moment.
@@kb5509he's already a first option on a .500 team that's likely to go above so what do you mean.
VA
Cam is an absolute bucket
Masai need to get this dood on raptors. We only got 2 players shooting constantly. Everyone else is a BRICK
He's 6'5 think about that
jj if you dont post the rest of this episode rn i am going to sack your ancestral homeland
give me the cam thomas episode
VA product ! likes of AI
People were saying all those high scoring games last year were a fluke. Guess again
Finally first
Cam is a superstar on a trash organization that doesn’t believe in him. They traded for Ben Simmons shall I say more???!!!
He should demand a trade ASAP so he can shine. I hate this situation for him. He’s far too great to ride a bench easily the nets best player and he’s so young. He deserves so much better from a franchise. I’ve been following his career since college
Hey JJ IF THE BULLS ASKED YOU TO BE THE COACH WOULD YOU ACCEPT IT PLEASE IM ABOUT TO START THE HIRE JJ CAMPAIGN PLEASE RESPOND TOO LOL I NEED TO KNOW THIS... THIS IS AWFUL WHAT WE ARE WITNESSING RIGHT NOW AND ITS NOT THE PLAYERS ITS HOW THEY ARE BEING COACHED PWILL ISNT A 4 VOOCH IS THE 4 & Drummond should start AT THE 5 our problem is solved there
Read the video title.. so y'all losin' yo minds now huh.. soft
I love the fact he on thus pod yet shi still aint funny
The Nets need to trade him while he still has value and get some front court help. We need a big man to help Claxton way more than we need a dude out on the perimeter trying to do his best Kobe impersonation. #GoNets
You need efficient scorers.. bridges ain't consistent and you got nobody else.
I think defense isn't really nets problem.
we have no shot creators/reliable offense outside of cam what are you talking about trading him for☠️
When are you going to interview a Lakers JJ!? You give platform to almost all these nobodies, but never to a Lakers homie!
Every national show glazes the Lakers and their players even when they're mid but Lakers fans hate for anybody else to get shine. Nasty business. And Cam is definitely not a nobody.
@@mellod5615Look at all the small market fans liking your comments lol
@@BabylonGateLA Don't hate lol. They know how it is having your team ignored.
God doesn’t want anybody in hell because He loves us, but you must understand why we deserve hell and why those who refuse to live under His authority will go there. He gave us the law (Ten Commandments) not to make us righteous, but rather to show us our sin (Romans 3:20). We’re not sinners because we sin, but rather we sin because we’re sinners. Sin is the nature of our flesh that we are born with due to the sin of Adam in the garden. For someone to be justified before God they have to be sinless. We’ve all sinned (Romans 3:23), and the the law demands death for those who sin (Romans 6:23). God is righteous, so He must punish our sin, which is what He did through His Son Jesus Christ on the cross. Jesus is Holy and sinless, yet He received our sin when He died on the cross, so that we can be righteous before God (2 Corinthians 5:21). When He died on the cross, He said “It is finished” (John 19:30), which means He paid the full price for all of your sins (past, present, and future) to be forgiven. He was buried and rose again from the dead. God will forgive anybody who puts their full trust in Jesus Christ alone for salvation. We aren’t saved based on our good deeds, but only by the grace of God (Ephesians 2:8-9). His precious blood that He shed is the only reason why we can be forgiven of our sins (Hebrews 9:22). If you confess that Jesus is Lord and believe that God raised Him from the dead, then you’ll be saved (Romans 10:9). You are born-again with the Spirit of Christ (2 Corinthians 5:17), and are not only legally justified before God, but also are accredited His righteous (Romans 4:24). Believers live for Christ now, so get to know Him through His Word. I recommend reading the book of Romans and the gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John), and watching Pastor Joseph Prince’s online sermons!
he joining that I.T category. like yeah you can score but tf else you do ?
