Hornets willing to part with #9 for Afflalo

Non NBA affluent... that means people that aren't familiar with the NBA.

 

Non NBA fluent is what you mean. Affluent is colloquially used in a financial context. Just a helpful note.

Yep, that's what I mean.

My mistake.

Got to say I agree with Carolina-Chuck on Kemba's contract. I think he will be in the same paid grade as Jeff Teague and Brandon Knight [$8 million per season]. If you look at Teague's stats from last season he had a better FG, 3P, FT, APG and PPG on less minutes than Kemba [Teague averaged 3.6 mins less than Walker]. For me, I don't think Kemba should get another 2-4 million or more than the likes of Teague.

 

I'm still trying to figure out the fascination with Kemba.  Terrible shooter, terrible decision maker.  Gets lost on defense occasionally.***

 

Nice guy, team leader and does seem to make the big shot (possibly because he always shoots the big shot).  To me, he is always going to be that guy that needs to be upgraded but he is just good enough that it isn't always apparent that an upgrade is needed.

 

I really don't think we should be talking extension for Kemba.  I think we should be talking upgrading Kemba.  

 

 

*** waits in anticipation for the "kemba doesn't have good supporting cast and therefore is forced to take bad shots" comments.
