    Camby 'Insulted' By Trade
    Jul 17, 2008 9:49 AM EST

    Center Marcus Camby made it known on Wednesday that he felt insulted by the trade that sent him from the Nuggets to the Clippers on Tuesday, according to The Rocky Mountain News.

    "Blindsided, distraught, disrespected. All those adjectives. I definitely feel insulted," he said in a telephone interview.

    Denver moved Camby to Los Angeles without getting anything in return, allowing them to cut roughly $10 million from their cap number.

    "When I first heard about the trade, I felt like I was the scapegoat after all our past first-round exits and failures and lack of defense," Camby said. "I felt it was them telling me that I was no longer wanted, and I was the cause of everything that went wrong the last couple years on this team."

    "I'm still in disbelief. I'm still in shock. I still can't believe this happened."

    Somebody needs to register "Emo Marcus Camby."

    What's the over/under on the combined number of games he and B-Diddy play this year? 50?

    Well, that doesn't bode well for the Clips. Camby was a steal for them, but I predict he'll be playing with a chip on a shoulder, and the first time they stumble, he becomes a malcontent in the locker room.

    Clippers are kind of nuts if they think they can get 70+ games from BOTH Camby and Davis.

    The same goes for the Hornets.It is hard for them to stay healthy all at once.

    Baron is emo after Elton left.

    Camby is emo just because he's there.

    When you're relying on Chris Kaman to be your team's emotional leader, you know it won't be a good season.

    So, if training camp were to start today, how would we rank the West:

    Top three, no particular order: San Antonio, LAL, NOLA

    Next two, in this order: Utah, Houston

    Next three, no particular order: Phoenix, Dallas, Portland

    Might be able to contend for one of the last playoff spots if everything breaks right: Denver, LAC, Sacramento

    ing terrible: Okla City, Minnesota, Golden State, Memphis

    Bowen 'Insulted' By DPOY result.
    Jul 17, 2008 9:49 AM EST

    Forward Bruce Bowen made it known on Wednesday that he felt insulted by the result of DPOY voting.

    "Blindsided, distraught, disrespected. All those adjectives. I definitely feel insulted," he said in a telephone interview.

    Denver's Camby won the award for no ing reason, and even though Bowen is the better defender, he lost out on the award without getting anything in return.

    "When I first heard about the result, I felt like I was the superior defender after all our championships and successes and amazing defense," Bowen said. "I felt it was them telling me that we played worse defense than Denver, ing DENVER, and I had no hand in the cause of everything that went right the last couple years on this team."

    "I'm still in disbelief. I'm still in shock. I still can't believe this happened."

    I feel for Marcus Camby. The NBA should pay him a stipend for getting traded to help him deal with it. It's only fair.

    How does he take it to mean that trading him has made him the scapegoat for their first round exits all these years? He has to understand that this was solely based on financial reasons and let's face it...they weren't going to get anywhere with a core of AI, Melo, and Camby in the tough West.
