I would too honestly. I?m Actually surprised nobody picked him up.

Probably for the same reasons we were able to sign Facu and Kemba?

I wouldn?t be surprised if we were bidding against ourselves with McGee.

Kemba Walker is a fancier version of THJ - a very streaky shooter who, if not hitting his shots, is useless. The Mavs have several variations of this type of player on their roster in THJ, Bertans, and Bullock. If Kemba can come out and play as if he has something to prove to himself and to the league, then he might add some much needed value to the team.

He's streaky, but the biggest issue with him in NY was his defense. He is so limited in his mobility that when his shot wasn't falling, he killed both the offense and defense

He's a smart vet, but you can't be 6'0" and have no mobility

Eeek, I have an even worse comparison for you...Trey Burke. Kemba is a better slasher (whenever he is healthy which is never), but that's what we're realistically getting.

Don't talk too quickly. There's a real chance that we waive Kemba and then sign Trey Burke (who is also currently available)

There's a reason why Kemba is available and it's for the same reason that Carmelo is available. Both are fairly washed up and are one-dimensional players. If they're not hitting the three....then sit'em down and try again the next game. Unfortunately, hope is not a strategy in sports!
