Yes, because we could package it with our own pick to get Barnes if we had to.

Too early to say. But probably no. I would like us to actually keep some players for a while not trading constatnly. Even with Cho on board. Kemba and Bismack as a new start sounds promising and I wouldn't like to lose the chemistry between them.

Not sure of Barnes. Bobcats boards are bound to be pro UNC so I would think twice to pull a trigger on haped Tar Heel.

Kendall I would love just because the name, that video was priceless.

Yes Barnes is UNC, but he is no Sean May. I would be fine taking him at a reasonable position (what position that is depends on how he does and who else is around of course).

I wouldn't because I am that high on Kemba, even if we did I'd rather keep the two picks than trade up for Barnes even though I'm really high on him.

Two top ten picks in next years draft doesn't just give us the chance for two all-stars but a chance for two future hall of famers.

Wait... So you wouldn't take the pick even though it's a chance at a HOFer? Or do you think Kemba has that chance?

I'm really high on Kemba, I'm an exreme optimist though so my optimism could be blinding but I consider Kemba to be a more efficient AI type of scorer, i think he will be hands down the best player from his draft class & could make the HOF.

Flame away but I can see it.

If anybody has been wondering, his shoes are out now and available on Eastbay in more normal colors.

I like those! Nice and simple!

Yeah the ones he put out for the Boostmobile game (page 17 of this thread) weren't that special to me, but these more subdued colors are looking pretty nice. I'd like to see a performance review on these as I've reopened my next search for basketball shoes since the Kobe VIIs have been made official.

Just did a bit of research and found his Bobcats PEs

Don't know if I've found a pair of orange shoes that looked good

Elden Payton · Post #311 » by **Elden Payton** » Tue Oct 18, 2011 12:18 am

^^^^^^^^^^^

Those kicks are as good as any I've seen lately.

The shoe people need to know simple is best.

I like the all blacks and don't mind the blue over orange pair. I think the blue over orange pair will look sweet with our white uni's.

I can't wait to see Kemba rocking them.

I'm really pumped he chose Under Armour, he's joined the little guys....I can see them cutting into Adidas' two percent of the market...

How much cash will I have to drop to get a pair of those sweet Kemba kicks??
