Walker big upgrade over DJ

All day the people on 610 radio have been saying . Walker is a big upgrade over DJ.
Thoughts as why if so. Should be a instresting comparing the two...........

Kemba's floor should be around what DJ is now.

He certainly can't be worse defensively.

I actually think his defense will be one of the main areas he separates himself from DJ in. I fully expect Kemba to be a superior on ball and transition defender from day 1.

I have really thought about the rest of the equation and it is so tough to compare a guy who plays in the NBA with a guy coming in who has only played against college level talent. Based on that, I need more time to figure out my stance on who is the better passer and such.

I keep hearing that Kemba is an extremely strong leader. That is what you need from your point guard and I don't think DJ does that as well.

Don't get me wrong, I am no DJ hater in any way, shape or form but I expect Kemba to be a major upgrade over DJ, even early on, based on defense and leadership skills alone.

I hope I am right. Go Bobcats!

I heard that on 610 radio . Was that you??

From all im hearing Walker is being compared to AI. Hes said to be a scorer not a shooter. DJ is said to be a shooter. Walker is said to be a leader . DJ isn't a leader. Walker is said to be much tougher than DJ. If Walker is a young AI THEN ITS NO COMPARING

That was my initial comparison in my head. I was a huge AI fan, Kemba kind of reminds me of him..the only difference I can tell is that AI was a bit quicker and had a filthy crossover. As far as there scoring abilities..I think they are very very similar.
