There are 165 kids on the court at Kemba Walker’s basketball camp, some as young as 8 years old. What were you like as a player at 8? “I was bad,” says Walker, the Charlotte Hornets’ point guard. Bad as in he’s a bad man or a bad 8-year-old? “No,” says Walker. “Bad.” Obviously he’s past that. Al Jefferson was Charlotte’s best player last season, but Walker was its leader. Walker takes a break Wednesday from directing the kids and going one-on-one against the kids and signing autographs for the kids, and heads to two metal folding chairs set up on the side of the court. He doesn’t walk to the chairs, however. He dribbles across Carolina Courts to the chairs, never in a straight line, the ball always in his hands. Walker and Jefferson were Charlotte’s big two last season. They’ve acquired a third – Lance Stephenson, the free agent guard from the Indiana Pacers. Walker is from the Bronx, Stephenson from Brooklyn. Stephenson’s Lincoln High twice played Walker’s Rice High and Walker admits Rice lost both. They also played AAU basketball together. Walker is 24, four months older than Stephenson. - See more at: http://www.charlotteobserver.com/20...-kemba-walker-excited-about.html#.U9EvJoBdW54
