They used to call Harden a 6th man as well. And many thought Westbrook wouldn't amount to anything.

That turnover-to-assist ratio is impressive whether win or loss. I stand by my belief that Kemba is this team's most important player, and that's why he was well worth the extension regardless of what anybody outside of Charlotte's fan base think


It won't be long before he starts attracting better free agents than Al and Lance. This next class will be a good test.

The key is for Kemba to stay aggressive. I think it's when he go into a passive train of thought that he lose himself and what got him here. I want to see Kemba stay aggressive alongside Jefferson in the same manner that Westbrook remain aggressive alongside Durant. When you take your foot off the gas, it take longer to rev back up to those speeds than if you keep your foot on the gas idly

If he keep this up and we keep winning I would riot the all star game in Brooklyn. I might get locked up but I'd be fighting for civil rights.

He's won more games than Kyrie by himself. Kyrie is 1-8 without LeBron I think. Unfortunately we gave him that win because of Kevin Love.

It's not about PGs. It's about guards. Is it five or six guards that make it on the squad? Either way, Wall and Kyrie are locks. Jimmy Butler probably is because he's been averaging 22ppg or something absurd. Kyle Lowry is almost a sure thing given TOR's record. Atlanta's got to have someone (probably 2). Horford hasn't been good by his standards. Millsap appears to be a lock to repeat as an all-star, but the question is whether Teague or Korver makes it as ATL's 2nd best player. I personally think it's Korver, who is a SF, leaving one or two more guard spots available. Really it shouldn't even be a question if Kemba keeps this up.

kemba and the hornets would have to keep up this ridiculous run for all of january into february for kemba to have any chance at the all-star game. you know kyrie, wall and lowry are virtual locks. lowry and wall definitely deserve to make it. assuming the hawks keep playing well, teague would probably get the next slot. jimmy butler deserves to go as well. players on losing teams in markets like charlotte dont make all-star teams. and lets not forget that the all-star game is about all the months leading up to the game, not just the recent stuff. kemba was rotten in november.

Kemba is now averaging nearly 19 PPG.

If he can push to 20 PPG this month, he's an All-Star.

He's shooting over 40% again.

Careful or you're going to start making the argument for Brandon Knight to be an all star.

Kemba's numbers the last four games are just stupid. 30.75ppg, 5.75rpg, 5.75apg, 1.5spg, .5bpg, 3.83 assists/TO, 48/35/88 shooting.

I honestly can't believe what I'm watching
