Hornets vs Knicks

[Manos]

Kemba to me is a guy who would be best suited as a 6th man instant offense guy that comes off the bench for a really good team. A guy along the lines of Jason Terry, Mo Williams or even Jamaal Crawford. I don't think he can ever be that for this team but if we could find some way to trade him it might be best for all parties. As for Al I never liked the pick up and still hate him being here. He is by no means a terrible player but his game belongs to a NBA that doesn't exist anymore and trying to make it work just makes us worse as a team. However, I will give him props for a couple really good passes last night as people cut to the basket. If the team can continue doing that and Al can become even remotely decent defensively the team might just do something this season.

totally agree which is why I wanted Mudiay so bad

Al is a bad fit that occasionally gets hot and confuses the opposing team because we can play fast ball or slow ball. It is interesting when he is hot, but awful when he is not.

I think Kemba needs a little more time with this new crew before writing him off. When you are asked to volume shoot to carry an offense during your first four years in the league...it may take him some time to realize he can trust his teammates to score.

Kemba still has an untouchable first step that allows him to get in the lane at will, and that is always a good thing to have on your team.

Either way, I am loving this new team. They are fun to watch play. If we could move Al for a premier rim defender, it would benefit us tremendously IMO.
