if you don’t situation that Charlotte is in. Do you let the most prolific player in franchise history to walk? Or do you overpay him and doom yourself to being financially strapped and stuck fighting for the bottom playoff seeds for the next 5 or so years?

Kemba will either get way overpaid, or he’ll be able to go play for a much better team. Win for him either way, but if I’m Charlotte right now I’m ticked, they’re just in an impossible situation. They’re going to feel like losers either way.
