Pretty strong performance tonight, double double (only 1 TO). The game outcome sucked but Kemba looked good.

We are learning to accept & expect this as the norm from Kemba

That type of inconsistency is the norm for most green NBA players.

I wasn't sold as Kemba as a starting point guard, but for a 2nd year player he has exceeded my expectations and is developing well. Still has area's to improve, as you would expect from a young player, but he is willing and keen to keep growing.

I would already rather have Kemba than Dj as our starting point guard.

We have our starting PG of the future in Kemba. This isn't no flash in the pan. He's legit. Take your pessimist glasses off and realize that we have something special here. I'm already willing to say that he's the best PG that this Bobcats franchise has had so far and he's only getting better each passing game.

Same. Particularly since DJ's shat the bed so far this season. He playing like ass this season, scoring 3.3ppg on 25/22/75 shooting.

DJ looks like trash this year. Kemba looks like a top 5 pick.

This must be a rhetorical comment.

Lol I'd certainly hope you guys would rather have Walker than Augustin. Augustin has been horrible for 2+ years now.

Yeah its not really much of a comment seeing how badly Dj is playing this year.

I was just thinking that 12 months ago, I would have surely started Dj, amazing how much it has changed.

Last year he was injured a lot, but the year before that he was pretty good for us.

With the Brandon Jennings-like game we saw from Kemba last season, I liked the idea of having a more traditional PG like Augustin around, but I don't think anybody realized how much of Silas's fault that train-wreck of a season that was, causing both point guards to have god-awful seasons. Factor in DJ's injury troubles, and you can see why I didn't expect him to suck this season. Unfortunately (fortunately?) it's looking like he's complete garbage.

I really don't know why he's doing so poorly. He's a better player than this, but he certainly doesn't look like it.

DJ has mental problems. No confidence. Was it Bonnell who tried to blame DJs poor season in 2010 on Flip Murray having too much swag?

Let me spell it out for you. DJ is a pretty boy who just isn't tough enough to thrive in the nba.

A shame that we can't win a few more games since Walker is catching up with Holiday in a hurry for a potential all-star berth. Hes been a stud the past 5 or so games.

I think he's finally taking hold on the reins of being the unquestioned leader of this young 'Cats team. His whole demeanor lately has been as if he answers to no one on the court but Dunlap. I still seen some timidness in his first 10 games or so, but not the last 5. It's a good thing to see his maturation
