and if it is him, he can play right away? This would be a good get as it would allow us to rotate between him and haas, and keep vince at the 4... would also make us a better defensive team with an athletic 7 footer protecting the basket as well.

Kemp actually enrolled at Kentucky. At the time he was a Prop 48 and couldn't play his freshman year. During his freshman year he was arrested for stealing gold chains from a teammate (rumored at the time to be Sean Sutton's who's dad was the coach). Kemp then left school and put himself in the following draft. Shawn played 14 seasons and left the game pretty much dead broke.
Some unexpected names on the list (Pippen) of NBA stars who went broke.
Wonder what Sprewell would say now if someone offers him $21 million today

No. 1, no surprise, goes to Antoine Walker. How the hell do you blow $110 million
$110 million is a lot of money, but it can run surprisingly thin when it’s being used to fund 70 family and friends, in addition to a very expensive auto hobby. Antoine Walker went broke while supporting an entourage of 70 people and treating himself to a car collection that included two Bentleys, two Mercedes, a Range Rover, a Cadillac Escalade, a Hummer and his prized Maybach. Gambling losses of almost $700,000 also created problems for Walker, who hit rock bottom with a Las Vegas arrest in 2009 for writing fraudulent checks to casinos, all the while being pursued by numerous creditors.

Heller's got it. Kemp ate himself out of the game.
I edited a running magazine for 15 years, often having to deal (delicately) with young women runners' eating disorders.
A flip side to human pathology? Remember the Chicago Bears' William "The Refrigerator" Perry? Here's an update: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news...reportedly-in-decline/?utm_term=.ac3098e9315a
Wish we could all love ourselves as we are. (Even IU fans, as far a reach as it is.)
We are both very old....lol!
I never wanted to be indebted to no fat guy with a small moustache and a strange hat and eyes you could never see. When I buy my hamburgers, I pay upon receipt, and I never waited until Tuesday.
By paying on Tuesday, you are out that hamburger and the money you were planning on spending for the weekend. and you never know, Bluto may actually kill Wimpy over the weekend while Popeye is taking Olive Oil and the three kids for a date.
This begs the question, were Popeye and Olive Oil ever married ? I remembers Popeye always comes to courtin' Olive Oil and vying with Bluto for her love. but I don'ts remembers Popeye ever marrying his true love. and whose 3 kids were they ? Were they from a prior marriage ? maybe like Donald Duck, they were Popeye's nephews ?
I needs me spinach.
and whatever happened to Johnny Quest's mom? I always wondered about that.
Ha.....my sister gave me a birthday card.....just an old official/referee with a whistle...."You're Old!"
Had to be a former Big Ten official.
And what did those 70 people do for him when the well ran dry? Probably not much.
Damon Bailey. Tops all time scoring in the state of Indiana. Beat Kemp out for the state title their senior years. Proves that high school doesn't necessarily translate to college and same from college to NBA. Kemp had a nice long NBA career and Damon didn't but Shawn couldn't hold his jockstrap in high school.
Bailey was the single most overrated prep player I ever remember.
Sorry- Kemp was not on that team. He graduated 2 years earlier in 1988. That concord team did have Jamar Johnson and Jeff Massey on it, who went on to play at Nebraska and Xavier, respectively.
The 1988 Concord team with Kemp lost to Muncie Central in the title game.
I wasn't meaning Damon beat Kemps team for the title just that they played the same time in high school. Wasn't sure if they were the same year or not thanks for cleaning that up New Pal. I was young when Damon was playing but dad and all the locals around here followed BNL everywhere those days from what im told. Apparently he was something to see until his knees started failing him. I was at the title game in '90 but I don't remember it.
He really wasn't all that great. Concord was the better team in that game, but there was a whistle every time Bailey got breathed on. Wasn't a great shooter, was short, and not very athletic.
Jim Bain, quite possibly the worst BT official ever. Hightower and Borowski are high quality compared to him.Ha.....my sister gave me a birthday card.....just an old official/referee with a whistle...."You're Old!"

Hopefully someone doesn't do a bunch of online research on this and then find Popeye and Olive Oil were cousins or something. Scandal in comic strips now..ugh! I can't take it.
Lesser known is the copyright fight over Family Guy's Quagmire's catch-phrase being an alleged theft of Popeye's early hip-hop, Scatman Skiddly Do.....
I hope this isn't some elaborate April Fools prank.
If this is true, from a playing ability perspective, he would absolutely be a worthwhile addition to next season's team: https://n.rivals.com/content/prospects/4070
That Concord team also had Steve Larkin and Maceo Sharp who both transferred from Elkhart Central to build the powerhouse at Concord with Kemp.
I got dunked on once by Kemp at the Elkhart Y.
