    Default Kemba Walker

    Did you guys see that behind the back pass on the fast break last night? I had no idea Nate Robinson could distribute like that!

    Kid didn't have a thread til 3 pages back. He's ballin' and he's improving on the things people initially were slamming him about, so I figured he needed a new one.

    Anyone noticed that the last couple games he's been finishing it out while DJ is on the pine?

    not to be completely disagreeable because i do see some improvement from the beginning of the season, but that was a pass that most high school pg's see, most college pgs could have completed and almost all pro pg's should make. that pass developed from about half court on.

    Aw come on now...he was going wide open and passed it slightly ahead of his own position behind the back!

    The bullet pass to Mulley that he fumbled out of bounds. A pass to Najera while in stride where he should have had an easy layup.

    The boy is showing skills. Admit it dammit!

    90% of the passes in the NBA a high schooler can make but do they have the awareness and timing to make the pass at the right time, time after time. He is getting better each "passing" week. Love the pun, lol. He will become a really great PG in due time. A lot of people are so quick to jump the gun because he didnt come out blazing destroying the competition, and there were quite a bit of you guys. I always had faith in Kemba just like I did with Biz(was a fan way before the draft).

    thought that pass was tight. he had four assists right after coming into the game, but they kind of dried up later on. also, he's a little thief, seems pretty good at getting good steals.

    i'm ready for the team to turn the reins over to him full time. team needs to make a decisive move in that direction, imo.

    i fully admit it was a great play and nice play, but it was not spectacular and i would expect most if not all pro pg's to see it and make it. i agree that the team either needs to let him be full time starting pg or announce that they plan to resign dj no matter what. pick one. i also agree that he is getting better, but i am not even close to ready to say he is the pg of the future. in the open court he is really good, but he is not good in the half court especially with the high pick and roll. if he can't get significantly better with it, he will not be a very good pro pg.

    You actually beat me to the new Kemba thread. I was going to ask if people thought he has surpassed DJ? He actually played more than DJ last night and had a better night. In the Orlando game, DJ played longer, but Kemba still had a better game.
