Rumor : Kemba to LA


Recommended Posts

on WFNZ they were tossing around a deal with Kemba going to LA in exchange for Lonzo Ball.  The deal would not work straight up but personally I would be willing to take on the headache of daddy Lavar if they were to add Kuzma to the deal to make the salaries work or maybe even Hart. Lonzo is the bigger guard that would pair with Monk I do believe and there is the Laker connection with Kupchak. Anyways this would all hinge on Paul George and Lebron also heading to LA , but what say the rest of you would you be interested in a deal for Lonzo. http://www.espn.com/nba/story/_/id/23878485/kevin-pelton-weekly-mailbag-how-lakers-add-kemba-walker-superteam

To be honest the Hornets picking up Lonzo, Brandon Ingram, and maybe picks wouldn’t be a bad trade at all. This fanbase doesn’t understand we don’t have the money to signed Kemba to huge contract and even if we do we are still not winning anything. It’s time to rebuild let’s be honest. I’m tried of not making the playoffs and signing Kemba long term pretty much keeps us out of contending because we want be able to afford to add pieces around him.

I can't envision Jordan wanting any part of Lavar after all the poo he talked about being better than him.

Jordan is going to bring the ball family here and then challenge him to a one on one before every practice.  :tongue:

There is no way we land Lonzo and Ingram (much less plus picks) for anything on our roster.  Kemba alone isn't enough, and the only other assets we have are Bridges and future picks, at which point we aren't really helping ourselves.

I’m not saying it’s likely we get all that but to get something before he leaves it’s better than nothing imo. But the Hornets are not going to give him up for free and Lonzo will definitely have to be included in the trade.

    • no doubt but flip that.   The current system insures that there are "regional" games in the early weeks. maximizing the reach of playoff football.  If all of the WC weekend for a conference took place on the west coast they are reducing the "reach" of their hype machine.
    • Hard to say with London--he never ran--combine or pro day.  Here is what AI says, and it is always 100% accurate: Drake London's 40-yard dash time at the NFL Combine was not recorded because he was dealing with a fractured ankle at the time. While he didn't participate in the 40 at the Combine or his pro day, his coach said his 40 time was estimated to be between 4.4 and 4.53 seconds. Some sources also list his 40 time at 4.58 and 4.6 seconds Unless you are running 9s all day, top end 40 speed is rarely reached.  I have always looked at the 3-cone drill.  At his pro day, TMac ran a 6.86--pretty good, actually.  For context, it is faster that Rome Odunze (6.88) who ran a 4.45 40.  Odunze is 6'3" and weighs 216, fwiw, and is considered a very good route runner with no wasted motion.  Mike Evans 3-cone was 7.08.  To put it in a broader context, through 2022, with all NFL prospect 3-cone drills combined, a 6.86 puts TMac in the.89th percentile-  Now consider the fact that he is 6'4" and 220.   We might have something here.  '
