In their prime, who would you rather have?

Shawn Kemp. Easy. One of my favorite players ever.

 

[Skumbag]

I'd even take a chunky Shawn Kemp

Ill take the 20 10 defensive beast over kemp any day.

 

[kps0001]

a better question, I think, would have been Amare or Kemp?

That would be a difficult one but I think I would go with Kemp on that also due to his defense.

You know Shawn Marion's never going to be arrested and he's a nice guy you wouldn't mind dating your sister. Soooooo .... big one up for the Matrix.

 

[dodie53]

You mean Matrix doesn't have 1,569 kids and doesn't have a coke and weed problem?

I loved Kemp. I have so much Kemp memorobilia it is sick. It was a shame to see that guy's career go down the tubes like that.

you obviously dont remember kemp in his prime, or the homer goggles are thick today. it would be hard to take Amare over Kemp.....much less Marion.

Kemp was a BEAST and hands down i'd take his game over Marion's. its no contest.

93-94 season:
18.1 points
10.8 boards
2.6 assists
53.8 FG%
1.8 steals
2.1 blocks

i HATED kemp though. not because of him, but because he was so good. it was a constant thorn in the sun's side for YEARS

uh, what do you think Kemp was in his prime?

Fat doobie smoking Kemp sucked. However, pre-fat Kemp when he still cared about basketball was an absolute beast. The Payton/Kemp combo was deadly for a run. One of my favorite in all of basketball. So I would say if I could cut out the fat Kemp years I would say Kemp.

If your looking at overall career, Marion no question. Amare and Kemp is not a competition assuming Amare doesn't become a fat slob who doesn't care about basketball in a few years.

Kemp was an amazing talent and as dumb as a rock.

 

[Black Jesus]

Kemp.
