‘Depressing?’ Oh, yeah. How Hornets’ Kemba Walker made Bulls miserable in 4th quarter

I’ve heard Kemba Walker’s shot-making skills described a multitude of ways. “Depressing,” though, was a whole new term.

I get what Chicago Bulls coach Jim Boylen was trying to convey pre-game: There has to be something demoralizing about how Walker, sometimes a foot shorter than the defender meeting him at the rim, somehow contorts his body in a way that gets that ball through the rim so masterfully.

Point guard Kemba Walker scored 15 of his game-high 37 points in the fourth quarter on Saturday in the Charlotte Hornets’ 125-118 home victory against the Chicago Bulls at Spectrum Center.
