No.

Kemba is more AI than Shabazz but neither is AI.

He doesn't have AI athleticism or handles.

This.

I love Kemba and Shabazz, but people have NO CLUE how good AI was back in the day.

Not to mention Napier plays more D in one posession than AI has in his entire life.

I think it's more likely he flames out of the league quickly than becomes an all star.

To me he seems like a hell of a leader on the court

Eh, they're probably slightly better, but if there's anything he really takes the cake at it's his athleticism. I don't think people understand how freakishly athletic Shabazz is. There was an example in the NC game where one of the twins pump faked him and he skied so high for the block he almost flipped over the shooter. He has crazy hops.

Kemba is the better pure scorer, though.
