Cam and Cam Thomas gonna be fun to watch grow now.
How quickly things can change. If you're a Net fan, last week you're reeling from Kyrie's trade demand and then had to take in a lackluster return.
Now? You've got Cam Thomas scoring 40+ three games in a row, and you basically turned Phoenix into your farm team for the next decade. Crazy.
Gotta give the Nets FO credit, they cashed in everything for their big 3, cashed out said big 3 and still came out smelling like roses. Incredible really.

I think the Nets just gained a lot of secondary fans thanks to Mikal and Cam J

Yeah, it looked hopeless, but now they are really in a great spot. Hard to believe they could pull this off midseason, but they took advantage of a new owner desperate to make a splash.

Put Mikal in the ring of honor

I'll root for them for sure but as a team with Bum Simmons on it, never. I feel so bad for them having to play with that fraud. I can't imagine how awful he is to put up with as a teammate.

Will miss Mikal more than any Sun probably ever. He was a real one.
Re: Mikal Bridges & Cam Johnson Appreciation Thread
I think ticket sales are really going to improve. We'll sell a lot of merch too.

Mikal was an incredible Sun. The kind of player you want to see spend his whole career growing with your team and eventually being part of a title squad. Seemed like a genuinely kind and cheerful guy, great teammate, zero drama, team player, everyone's friend. Will really miss him.
Cam was also a guy I've really rooted for. Amazing shooter. Wish he had stayed healthy this year and wish that we had found a way to agree on a contract with him. He was probably gone this summer anyway. But he was a good Sun and I'll miss him, too.

I miss them both, but especially Mikal because he loved Phoenix so much.
