The new DJ

[Plowright]

i am fully aware it has been just two games, and they have been against to awful teams. However we all know DJ is balling! Just going to say, watch this interview http://www.nba.com/bobcats/video/2010/12/30/101229paulsilasvscavsm4v-1509229/index.html

I will hold my hand up and say i have never seen DJ smile before, its a great thing to see!

Two roads diverged...

Jack's quote on if he had the hot hand tonight:

"My team is constantly telling me to look for my shot first, so I don't have so many turnovers, and tonight I see what they mean by that"

I love his bluntness

Love the way DJ is finally showing why the bobcats drafted him in the first round. Great shot, finally using his talents to the fullest extent. The last two games have been fun to watch.

Jackson is right. He is a turnover machine. I'd rather him take shots than try to be a passer. He also tries to break guys down off the dribble and will often bounce it off his foot or lose the handle. Just shoot, man. Just shoot. Leave the driving to Gerald.

Gotta love how he is responding right now. After all the crap he went thru with LB, it amy have simply made him stronger. Just keep on doing what he's doing, and get better on Defense. Then we have a PG everyone can be happy with as a starter. And keep taking it to the rim!

DJ looks comfortable for the first time in as long as I can remember. I love the Paul Silas interview too.... I know it's only 2 games against crappy teams, but the overall mood around the team looks so positive, relaxed yet confident, and everyone is just playing basketball. Back to the topic though, DJ v 2.0 is a keeper. Yeah he dropped 28, but he also dished out 6 assists and had a few steals. He may not do this every night, but in this system, I don't see why he can't be a 16/6 pg, which I will take and not ship out. That ally he through to Wallace would've been a sportscenter top-10 highlight too, had it gone down. I'm glad we are seeing the rewards of our top 10 pick. I think it's so perfect that Grandpa Grumpy wanted DJ to be his pick in the draft, yet never had Augustin play this way under him... and at 23 years old, he's got many years ahead of him too.

He was brilliant, and I don't want to take anything away from him. However, I hope this translates into winning Bobcat basketball. I think Jax and DJ accounted for a very large portion of our points. We have to keep the other guys in the game.

Again, not taking anything away from him. He's definitely ballin'. (Shooting percentage was bananas.) What will this look like over 40 games?

Hater. Just let him shoot.

Hopefully they'll all grow together and it'll all work out. Silas is a good coach.

Dj is doing fantasically. Keep him and trade Jack for Mayo or Wallace for Melo.

[Ghost Kat]

What happened to all the trade DJ talk? Two games of freedom equals two threads of man love i guess. Keep it up DJ

[Pepperz]

I'm loving the new DJ. I knew he was capable of GREAT things and it was really just a matter of when and not if. There was a reason why I moved him up big in my fantasy league. :)

[kickazzz2000]

How realistic is this Mayo talk? Was it ever rumored anywhere? All I ever see is Chicago rumored to be in talks. Is he even on the block? I know hes coming off the bench now. I guess its a good thing that there aren't any rumors out there...that would just prove to be a smoke screen.

I've had a woody for Mayo ever since the 08 draft....I remember the world where 9th pick and Ammo=Mayo LOLOLOLOL
