    The below clip - he's playing with current 2nd year center Spencer Hawks of the Sacramento Queens.

    what's with all the super slow motion. i hate that stuff in bball clips. its not so bad if they play it out at full speed first but everything is in slow motion. so annoying and irritating.

    As zerhoe said, the slow motion was stupid. As Blurr#7 said, nice to see him spending time with the kiddos.

    I'm more impressed with the beats in that video than anything Kemp did. The moves he used would only work on a slow inexperienced center like Hawes.

    C'mon yall, did you guys not see how out of shape Kemp was? He can still get up there and was rejecting Spencer Hawes, NBA Player. Not bad for an old ass dude. Also like the end of the video where Kemp starts to get his swag back. Almost brought me back to the when I was a kid.

    I didn't like Seattle, but I loved how they played.

    this is from may 2008, looks so

    Not the past couple years but before that, I dont get how a guy like Kemp even in halfway shaped couldnt get even a 10-15 minutes a game a backup role. When guys like Tractor Traylor are still attempting comebacks.

    *edit*
    Okay a quick wikipedia reading gave indication why he wasnt picked up. Forgot about all the past legal problems and stuff

    Seriously. Not sure why you want to slow-mo that.

    He was doing a Lerbon impression. He's showing the world that he can still do moves that current NBA superstars are doing. Damn, what a badass.

    I see Shawn Kemp all the time at Starbucks on Highway 6. He lives on Eldridge and Briar Forest. Still in shape. Told me he doesn't plan on coming back.
