New York Post Watching Cam Thomas perform in the NBA Summer League this past week, I couldn’t help but find myself channeling former Nets TV analyst Bill Raftery, with shrieks of “Onions!” following each of Thomas’ clutch buckets.

Thomas used the tournament to showcase his excellent one-on-one skills, with an innate ability to draw contact and get to the foul line (he finished second in Las Vegas with 8.3 free throws made per game).
