If you believe Kemba is 6'1 you have a problem. Most heights are exaggerated in the NBA. Kemba isn't close to being 6'1 more like 5'10 or maybe 5'11. Chris Paul on the other hand is a legit 6'0.

I like how "heights are exaggerated" applies to Kemba but not Paul...

Allen Iverson 6'0 but his is legit too... plus this is a thread for back up pg. Kemba will start, like it or not that's the move or front office made. No one else is going to. Now who do you want as our back up pg?

Linnsanity, Mo Williams, Aaron Brooks, Nate Robinson, CJ Watson, Jameer Nelson, Andre Miller

^^^All can bring something to the team. Another player I would like to see, but not a PG, is Gerald Green given a shot on the cheap here. I have always liked his game.

Green can shoot and drive. How is he on defense? I just remember watching him do some crazy dunks.

“The numbers show pretty clearly that Gerald is not the terrible defensive player he is being made out to be,” Bradbury said. “The Suns played him a lot last year, they liked what he brought, when he was rolling, the team was rolling, and no one was out there complaining about his defense.

“It's unfortunate because the team isn't where some people thought it would or should be at this point in the season. I'm not sure why that falls on one guy all of a sudden, especially when they have known all along what they have with Gerald. He can score, and can score a lot quickly, when you give him the minutes. He brings it on the defensive end, consistent with what the team brings as a unit. But when you hear the coach saying he is so bad that he can’t be on the floor? That’s nonsense. You have to wonder where that comes from and why.”

Hornacek said two days ago, according to The Arizona Republic, “(Green) never really seemed to get it going and then it comes to the point where, if you’re not scoring and if your defense isn’t picking up, it’s hard to stay in the game. The next guy is going, ‘I needed help here and the guy wasn’t here.’ We’re trying to develop something for the future, not just being out here for everybody to play in the game. We want to get to a top-notch winning level and you’ve got to do it on both sides.”
