Cameron Johnson: ‘What people don't get about these trades and I think there have been plenty of players who have vocalized this before, is that you don't get downtime, you don't get time to go home, you don't get time to straighten things out, you are just… your life is moved. Everybody that you've worked with, put sweat equity into, blood, sweat, tears all that, coaching staff, fan base, four years I was there, five years Mikal Bridges was there, gone. One night I'm getting ready to play, watching my film, watching whoever was playing, I think it was like a Dallas- Clippers game before that was just finishing up on TNT, and then in a moment everything, all that, just gone. I think the trade deadline has become entertainment and it's a unique thing for professional sports. Our trade deadline being so viewed, so watched, people anticipating movement, but it's just like when you put so much into it and a trade kind of sideswipes you like that, it leaves your head spinning, and you have to turn around quick, we played in the Brooklyn uniform two days later.’
