Raptors @ Hornets

We all know that Mo is going to be relegated to the second unit when kemba comes back, whether that makes sense or not. Mo and Lance leading the second unit back court has very good potential and frankly would be better than Kemba and Lance.

Unless you are one of the ones that wants to tank, you've got to be happy that mo saved us from Roberts and has strung together this group of games that have kept the hornets in the playoff race.

I wish that this had happened a year ago and opened up a legit convo about just how good of a player Kemba is, but 12 mil a year later is too late. I know this board won't embrace the convo, but it should be discussed.

Before Kemba got injured he was definitely living up to it. He finally has a backup point guard that plays like he does and can embrace the mentor role. An offseason with Mo (if we resign him) will work wonders for Kemba.

Also, if you don't pay him, someone else will in RFA. That forces you to match or overpay for 33 year old Mo Williams' two months of production. If you move on from both, you're stuck drafting mid-first round with Brian Roberts as the backup which sets the guard situation back to 2011.

The cap sheet is structured to where one contract isn't going to ruin potential spending in the offseason, especially since Al and Gerald are probably opting out.

Kembas deal is fine given the market and his age.

It should also be noted that MKG and Gerald are finally starting to knockdown the open jumpers that the defense gives them, which helps assist numbers and opens the offense. The upgrade in offensive production from the wings has been what has keyed this nice stretch just as much if not more than Mo.

You can argue that Mo is creating better opportunities for them but 95% of the Hendo hate came from the fact he couldn't hit any open three anywhere on the court regardless of the defense and at least now you have to respect him from the corner. We all know MKG's story.
