Look how DCousins is benefiting in Sac with a better PG: Collison over Thomas.

Kemba and IThomas are very similar.

Collison sucks. Truth is, anytime you have a PG that is sub 6-foot, which is what Kemba realistically is, they are going to have the problems that Kemba has - poor shooting.

But, if you have pieces that complement them, it can make all the difference. I think the Chris Paul comparisons from a few years ago are realistic, the difference is, Chris Paul has always had guys around him that complemented him and could finish plays. This roster is full of guys that count on other guys to finish because they can't themselves. It is just a poorly constructed roster.

Definitely wouldn't go that far. This team is close to being good, just needs some tweaking.

I'd definitely look to make some trades, though.

At some point you lose to the point of no return. Heck Brooklyn is an eighth seed right now and they are trying to blow it up.

They are in a good spot to get alot for their pieces shouldtthey choose to blow it up. And in the east, it could be a quick turnaround. Look at the bucks over the past two seasons.

I honestly wouldn't care about this game but the worst part is Deangelo Williams of all people now gets to gloat. That's unfortunate.

It's hard to put down what Jefferson provides on offense every night in a double-double, but he is a complete liability on defense and I haven't looked at any analytics, but I can guess they almost cancel each other a lot of nights.

Fuq DeAngelo. My least favorite player on the Panthers.

You can't put Paul in here just bc of his size and that he had help. The difference is Paul has a bag pull of tricks. Kemba doesn't. Paul runs the floor while Kemba is a SG playing the point. Paul made Chandler and is making Jordan better than he is.

Collison isnt a very good PG, but he's a better overall PG than Thomas. He runs the offense. That's why Cousins is having a hell of a season. The offense is going through Collison this year, while last year the offense stopped at Thomas.

I'm telling you guys, we will be the same old crappy team until we have a floor general. Kemba is a nice, young, and try hard man but he can't run the offense. He started out great tonight knocking some really good buckets, but Conley was the better PG tonight.

You make some good points chuck, but I disagree on several of them... Kemba was better than Conley tonight. What was the difference? You said Paul and Collison know how to run an offense, but look at what they're working with. Same can be said for Conley tonight. He didn't have a better night than Kemba, but his team won. Why?

He has Z-Bo, Gasol, Courteney Lee, Prince, and guys like Poindexter and Carter coming off the bench to drop buckets like they never left.

Look at Paul and Collison's supporting casts - Griffin, Jordan, Reddick, Barnes, Crawford, lol... Collison has Cousins, Stauskas, Gay. All those guys on each team are better than anything Kemba has. We are built for defense and again, we don't have any guys that can finish. AL and PJ are the closest things and AL is one dimensional, he generally doesn't finish a play from others, he has to hold the ball in the post and dominate the ball himself. And PJ can't get off the bench because Clifford is a fuging idiot.

But what I agree with you on, sadly, is that as much as I love and pull for Kemba, unless we end up getting a lineup similar to what the Clippers have, then any moves we make will keep us in the 3 to 6 range at best.
