The issue isn't that he can't put up games like this. It's that he has yet to do that on a consistent basis.

If he can do that, he's close to a max player. He matched Eric Bledsoe, a guy who just signed a max extension, bucket for bucket tonight. The Hornets are gambling that he can be that guy which is why they signed him to that extension. The more he improves, the better the value of that extension.

FG% please. ASS

Lol that's what makes the anti kemba crowd so hilarious. It's field goal percentage for you. It's assists for 49. It's not being myck kabongo for chuck. Sorry, the guy isn't Oscar Robertson.

It's almost as bad as the anti Cam crowd complaining that he's not as accurate as Manning or Brady.

Kemba walker is what he is. Inconsistent? Certainly. But alot better than he gets credit for. The fact that you can't give him his due when he plays well is why posters can't take you seriously. You're certainly entitled to your opinion. Just keep an open mind.

He needs to be more of a distributor while maintaining that net drive that makes him so dangerous. He's never going to be an elite shooter, but he can get the ball to the basket and get to the line. He just needs to be able to use that ability to find the players that get open when they collapse the box on him.

He shot the ball well.  But he didn't dish it well.  

 

Hornets scored 103.  Kemba had 4 assists.  The offensive ball movement still has to go through someone besides your point guard.  That's never good.

 

And FWIW, Kemba's guy beat Kemba.  Bledsoe was +6 on the game, Kemba -2.  

 

Even when the Kemba apologists think they have it, they don't.

If that's your argument then it's a horrible one.

Bledsoe played five more minutes than Kemba, so there is five extra minutes to get that + up.

I prefer to use my actual eyes to discern who was the better player.

It was Kemba driving one on one against Bledsoe hitting the reverse to seal the win for his team, not the other way around.

Chuck and 49 have probably watched maybe three games in the past year, so don't be shocked when they go stat-searching, at least in 49's case. If all he has to lean on is +/-, that shows you he's struggling to come up with anything of substance for an argument.

 

Which, coincidentally, has been his problem since he joined.

 

Chuck on the other hand, lol. And a big lol to SuperJ, who still hasn't seen an NBA game that didn't include LeBron. 

 

Nice game, Kemba. Not surprised he did well. I caught what I could of that one, went out to dinner at McCormick and Schmick's uptown.  :stuff:

Let's go and make a Kemba Prove Y'all Wrong thread every time he plays well. We'll have 15 threads throughout the 82 gms season to rub it in Chucks face. Yay!!!

      Fvck Bryce Young

      By Proudiddy · Posted

      Idk man, I think it’s necessary.  There’s people working 9-5s everyday that get told poo about what they aren’t and what they’re not capable of and they’re working for scraps.  These guys are making millions.  People are watching and invested because their team and fandom is a part of their identity and a big source of pride.  When someone like Bryce comes in and is given chance after chance after chance after proving he is not worthy of the position he’s being gifted, and he continues to be the biggest reason above any that we are losing, yeah…  I think it’s fair to call a spade a spade.  Am I saying Bryce the person is trash?  Bryce the person is a piece of poo?  Absolutely not.     I came up in an era, especially in basketball, where if you were fuging up people heckled the poo out of you.  I played in rec leagues as a teen where the fuging parents were calling kids trash and yelling poo like “TURNOVER!!!  TURNOVER!!!”  “CANT DRIBBLE!”  “CANT SHOOT!”  And that’s adults screaming that poo to kids like we were in the fuging Rucker lol.🤣🤣🤣  I went on to play basketball at a collegiate level and with professional players in different settings.  What those experiences as a kid taught me was to see if there is any merit to what people are saying, and if there is, then work my ass off til they can’t say that anymore.  Come back better, tougher, harder.  And I did.  If kids can figure that poo out, an adult calling another adult who is bad at his job while making millions and millions of dollars will be just fine.

      I'm 43.... I've lived half my life if I am lucky... will we ever have another team that we will fall in love with?!?

      I have tried to like this team, lord knows I have tried. BY9 is a nice young man, if I had a daughter he can take her to prom, but he ain't QB1 and he's not Cam or Delhomme Chuba is a average RB, he isn't Stephen Davis, he isn't J-Stew McMillan has the makings of a good WR, but he isn't 89/Moose D. Brown is a great player, but if the game was on the line I want Kris Jenkins       I miss this brand of football, even in the bad Jake games the games were entertaining It has been nearly 8 years now of watching numb football

      I’m not sure people understand how fuging bad it is

      I'm not so sure. Something about the whole Frank/Bryce situation seemed off from day 1. Bryce didn't fit Frank's QB mold as well as Stroud, then he basically gives up when Bryce is named starter in preseason but gets virtually no reps in games. Then he looks completely unprepared and Dalton steps in in Seattle, has a decent game under immense pressure, and it's right back to Bryce. All his mechanics are terrible and he's having the worst rookie season ever and Frank doesn't bench him?  You dont have to be a conspiracy theorist to know Bryce wasn't ready to be a day 1 starter. Everything with Bryce, then coaches, and the FO seemed forced.
