Kemba doesn’t win games that’s the problem he’s better than anything we got yea but I don’t want Kemba if I’m trying to build a winning team idc he hit a game winner in college or that sometimes he can score a lot of points he’s inconsistent and a terrible defender that doesn’t lead his teams to wins
People that obviously don't know basketball always got strong opinions around here.

Kemba is literally a smaller kyrie with less handles and a jumper that’s not as good.... and kyrie averages more points with his fancy dribbling

And if players were only rated on how many PPG they scored that would matter, but they're not. Charlotte was better offensively with Kemba on court than Boston with Kyrie Charlotte also has no other talent Kemba has that effect on a team, Kyrie doesn't. Kemba's the better team player, better at getting looks for teammates, better defender, better everything except scoring.

Your the one that mention stats saying his fancy dribbling doesn’t count for points I was just saying his still averages more points than Kemba how exactly is Kemba a better team player than kyrie/ better at getting looks for teammates your just saying that it’s a wash neither are premier playmakers. Can you show me stats saying Kemba is a better defender for real or your basing that off an eye test?

Yeah that makes sense.
KP is due for a similar salary soon and we have Kornet. He makes peanuts, let me guess Kornet > KP too?
In midtown east so if you're local lmk bc want a hit/swig of whatever you're smoking/drinking.

First:

Kemba scores 2 ppg less, on 1 less shot. More assists, fewer TO, and when he was on the court Charlotte's offense was better than Boston's when Kyrie was on court. I honestly can't tell you who Charlotte's 2nd best player even is.
As for defense, RPM has him significantly ahead:
http://www.espn.com/nba/statistics/rpm/_/sort/RPM/position/1
As it does on offense. Same for RAPM
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/e/2PACX-1vSzp3G5rwP9xgCgluVGmR3Qj4-BMoGSYiuTKM6o_pzES6s95oQE1nQvB2CXed-4fRc_MMGgpULtDaJ_/pubhtml?gid=1825430955&single=true
Kyrie gets a lot of attention because he's flashier and plays for Boston. Playing in Charlotte and people don't realize Kemba is really really good, and looking at it objectively from every measure better than Kyrie.

Offensively it’s too close to even favor either kyrie is a little more efficient in every category kemba had a little edge in assists but career wise kyrie dies. Rpm favors Kemba but Kemba is on a significantly worse team I would expect his rpm to atleast be a little better is his drpm better as well? Every time I watch Charlotte Kemba seems to have a hard time defensively maybe just against bigger guards. But he’s so small everyone is bigger than him also I hate how inconsistent he is.

RPM wouldn't favor a guy on a bad team, at all.
And Kyrie's edge in assists was probably bumped a bit by playing next to possibly the best player ever. He's never had the defense focus on him like Kemba has, Kyrie's had a great luxury there and when he hasn't has struggled to lead good offenses.
Kemba was better in DRPM as well, and by a really big margin.

How isn’t rpm better for a good player on a bad team would the players plus minus look good if every time he comes back in the game his team plays better for example if Charlotte is down 10 and Kemba comes in and cuts the lead to 2 his plus minus would be 8 right? Or I’m off?
(RPM) tells you how much better a team played on offense and defense when a given player was on the floor, and how much that improvement was that individual player's doing.

Kyrie was what 22 when Lebron came he was still a kid not many 22 year olds can lead the offense the cavs had pre Lebron/love lol
