Woohoo!

How did that happen, though? I thought he was third in voting?

Fortunately the fan vote only accounts for half the vote now. He was 3rd via the fans, 2nd for media, 2nd for players (I'm a little surprised he wasn't 1st here).

Ahh, I knew they changed up the system somehow, but I wasn't sure of all the specifics.

Do they take into account fan voting for the reserve spots as well now or is that voted on pretty much the same way as before?

I guess it was a given anyway, but there's pretty much 0% chance he gets traded now, right? :lol:

Believe that's when the coaches vote comes in.

This is the coolest thing to happen to the Hornets a long time! He deserves it too! Not like this is some token vote.

You da man Kemba!

This is so rad! His last two selections he wasn't even voted in as a reserve until other players got injured. I mean who TF actually wants to watch Wade play anyway?

I was so pissed when Dragic was picked over Kemba. Like, what in the actual ****?

Fan voting sucks but I'm kinda glad that he's ranked third. If Wade's not having his farewell tour, Kemba could be closer to 2nd in fan votes.

Amazing feat considering the skeptics and doubters of his ability to adapt to the NBA game when he was drafted.

Awesome Kemba! Congrats to our only star player.
I continue to wait...and hope...for the return to Hornet's glory.

Return to Charlotte Hornets
