Cody Zeller starting a charity to keep Kemba in Charlotte. Kemba says Charlotte is his top priority.

Speaking with The Athletic, Walker expressed desire in staying with the Charlotte Hornets, the team that drafted him. “Oh no question, Charlotte’s definitely my first priority,” Walker said. “That’s where I’ve been for eight years and that’s all I know. Not many people get a chance to play for one NBA team throughout their career.”

Despite rumors of interest from other teams and a potential union with a team in his home state of New York, Walker remained steadfast in his appreciation for Charlotte.

“Charlotte is my home, man,” he added. “I’ve been there for eight years and it’s been the most amazing eight years of my life. My family, they love it. The fans love me. The organization has been great and gave me my opportunity.”

Of course Kemba is going to say that.

He wants to see

1. Them to give him the max deal

2. See what pieces they are planning to do with this team to help him.

 

Problem is.  With Batum, MKG, Marvin, and Biz taking up so much dam room.  Honestly dont see Kup and MJ offering him the full max.  Wanting him to take some what cheaper but still more than others.  

Unless they offer him the max and move one of these other contracts, he's gone

I don't think he's gone at all. Even if they offer him 200 mill, that's still more than any other team can offer. Plus, Kemba is loyal unlike others.

200 is more than the others can offer.

But by the time you factor the endorsements he'd pick up being on a contender itll all about equal out.  Plus he will be winning which is huge for a competitor like Krmba

Yeah, except everything in that quote says otherwise. But, okay.

    • While I agree with you in spirit my gut and my heart says I'm not falling for this again until I see consistent results across the entire upcoming season. Then I'll breathe a sigh of relief and truly feel better about the future.
    • After some time to process and also in light of other small markets being successful and not requiring top overall picks to compete. This years finals looming large. While I readily acknowledge the league office clearly despises our franchise and has absolutely no qualms about us getting the short end of any stick in the draft lottery. The Hornets may just be doomed regardless due to their own mismanagement and inability to draft and develop legitimate playoff worthy talent. And we seemingly always pick the wrong player in the draft. I mean at this point we can even take a hard look at the 2020 draft and someone like Haliburton going pick 12 while Ball went 3rd. Did we draft the wrong guy or are we just that inept at any level of talent development or is it a mixture of both? Looks the latter right now.
    • I feel we are already moving in a better direction before we even take a snap this season.  We have hope now.  People are talking about us brewing something special. Remember how dismal things were when Rhule was here?
