Rubio's racist. Gimme Kemba.

It's a little silly (primarily because Rubio's defense is so much better), but certainly not to the extent that those Rubio vs. Irving debates were on the general board.

God, you're like a broken record player... this thread is basically 62 pages of you arguing that a) Kemba is a good player statistics-wise; b) Kemba would have had a much better year, if he wasn't on the Cats

OK, we get it. But, man, there is a lot more out there to evaluate. Those two are fair points, but please admit this - stats don't mean everything and you can't blame everything on the lack of a supporting cast.

Of course, this is one of the worst situations that a rookie can get him into, but you can't tell me that Kyrie Irving has a much better team in Cleveland.

I won't even get into the Rubio and Kemba debate. I'm sorry that you can't appreciate the knack Ricky has for passing and can't see that Kemba couldn't possibly do this (at least at this point in his career).

Kemba is the worst shooting rookie to qualify aside from Rubio who has a smaller sample size and isn't supposed to even be a scorer.

No one gives a funk about PER. PER is really, really dumb.

He's also 3rd in assists per game and 5th in AST/TO ratio. sounds about right for the 3rd PG taken (4th really with Rubio).

I know that these season has been rough but no need to discredit the good things some of our players are doing. Chin up kiddo

Where did I discredit him? I'm saying he's playing pretty terrible basketball. He didn't have much competition for the assists, after Rubio and Irving.

Everyone on our team is playing terrible basketball. Doesn't mean they are terrible basketball players.

Well, you guys are quick to say everyone else is terrible. Including rookie Cory Higgins, the young Reggie Williams, DJ Augustin, DJ White, Maggette, Tyrus Thomas, and Matt Carroll. In fact if the player isn't Kemba, or maybe Biyombo, there's a few players on this board who have nothing at all nice to say about them.

Because Cory Higgins is a vet, got it. Don't even try this bullshit on me.

Nobody cares about Cory Higgins because he's not on the team for his basketball talent. I was going to include him in ()'s in my post saying that but I figured it was common knowledge to anyone who is a fan of this team that Cory Higgins is irrelevant. I guess being a troll is too fun

No need for name calling - Sachmo

Uhh, you just called me a moron and you call for my suspension? All this because you can't even admit that Kemba is playing just as bad as the rest of the guys. If you'd stop playing favorites, maybe you'd have an opinion worth talking about.

EDIT: After looking at the general board today I'm surprised Stun isn't banned.

its one thing to say he is sucking, its another to act like you can make any significant predictions about his future or pidgeonhole him into a role so ignorantly WHILE you misunderstand his passing stats and how not-terrible they are.

its not different from saying Bismack is complete garbage right now and will forever be garbage based off this season. its stupid.
