Kemba

[Kauffmak10]

I know we already have an NBA thread but he deserves his own new thread..

Straight killing it so far this year.. another 39 tonight with game winning free throw!

Damn! His season scoring average dropped to 40ppg

Wish that were true but he had a season “low” of 26 the other night in 27 minutes.. didn’t even play the 4th quarter.

Averaging an “acceptable” 35.33 now

Dude is all about making some money. Very happy for him. This next contract should be a max deal. Can’t fault him for taking the conservative route the first time around. Left money on the table but that will be made up quickly this summer.

Quite amazing because he never really put his foot on the pedal and dominate until after his 2nd year with us, but boy did he ever after that.

 

[CardiacAndre7]

Hopefully we’ll have to reconsider that HOF discussion.

Durant and Kemba to Knicks. Pencil them in.

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

I still feel like Hornets really need a second scorer. Batum really hasnt developed into the player he seemed like he could be before he got that big contract.

Kemba has to go the Knicks if to max his value. That will keep he money coming in after he retires. He has a smile made to sell products.

Kemba is staying in Charlotte.

Kemba and Durant to the Knicks. One can only dream , would luv for that to happen. Kemba belongs in NYC.

Kemba I think finishes this season as a Laker. I feel it’s starting to brew once Lakers fans wake up and realize Rondo and that squad ain’t doing ish for them, and that Leonard may not be a sure thing the season after.

This is what I believe too. If not this year with a trade than next with a nice contract. I’m not up to speed with Lakers salary but it’s probably a doable situation.
As his mom said when he came to UConn; it takes him a few years to get comfortable but when he does he becomes incredible.

 

[DarthGrumpy]

The local paper is reporting that with irving saying he is committed to the Celtics beyond 2018/9 that Kembra is know the Knicks #2 target after Durant. Same clip states that Kembra really likes living in Charlotte though and we all know the Kincks will continue to be a dumpster fire until ownership straightens out its act.

Kemba is staying in Charlotte.

I kind of agree with this, although it is not a lock. Charlotte needs to either a) get worse to get good draft picks, or b) attract some high level talent to Charlotte. I don't know if either is possible. The cap situation is ugly, and by the time Zeller and Batum come off, I think Kemba will be 30. On the other hand, Kemba can probably keep a team above the 30 win level if he has any talent around him. The Hornets are really in no man's land.

They need to find a team that is also mired in mediocrity, with a similar cap situation but with longer tails on their deals. The Batum and Zeller contracts are just flat-out toxic.

I spent the entire of month of June arguing why is not a HOFer. Even without playoff success he has the T-Mac/Grant Hill trajectory. It's possible.

 

[Huskybass]

I told all of you that Kemba has a legit chance of being a Hall of Fame inductee some day. He continues to prove me right.

He's definitely not making the hall of fame, but that doesn't take anything away from how amazing he is as a player and a UConn representative

 

[Letsgohuskies11]

i always thought lamb would of been a better player than he has shown so far.

 

[UC313]

i always thought lamb would be better than he has.

Pass that over here homey.

Watching Kemba tonight up against Kawhi...brings back memories of that Sweet 16 game in Anaheim when SDSU was the 2 seed. The one where Kemba got knocked to the floor on a timeout - and then took over the game. Great memories.
