I'm curious to see if he plays point or two-guard in the NBA. If he's a two-guard, it'd be interesting to see how he plays off the ball instead of being the go-to ball-handler AND scorer.

Not sure where'd I'd like to see him go, but the Bobcats seem to be going nowhere. I'm not too up-to-date on 'em though.

Oh, hes going to lotto team... although if the lakers could trade brown and xx amounts of drafts picks for him . That would answer pg spot for the lakers i hope:)

They play the same position. Why double-down lottery picks when you can build a great bench just as easily through later rounds and free agency?

Even assuming you slide Kemba to SG, neither of them are taller than 6'1". You'd need a taller point or they would just get annihilated on defense.

Kemba Walker is not a SG...he's a modernday PG.

So basically, it's the same failed strategy as the last five years, but outside of North Carolina borders this time.

why would anybody in that organization divulge that kinda information this early?
thats just stupid. i mean its too early to even throw out smokescreens.
it was most likely a case where someone asked MJ who he's been impressed by in the tourney and he said kemba. i highly doubt that means that they are "targeting" him.

So if Jordan likes him, is he now a bust?

Hey, he could be the next allen iverson.

I can see why because of how gifted he is offensively. I wrote an article about him, let me know what you guys think.

Of course they are. He has Bobcats pick written all over him

And there is no way he plays 2 in the NBA. He's like 5'10.
