    MERCURY NEWS -- Don Nelson is going ga-ga over Dajuan Wagner, plain and simple. This is not subterfuge or false trumpeting on Nelson?s part in the early days of Warrior training camp.

    Thx Mel. We'll see how he does in a real game. He can score, but I don't know about his other stuff.

    He's like a man child against boys, that is so unfair. Once in the nba though, he didn't really stand out like he did in high school. But he's got a nice crossover and explosive leap.

    Anyone have his freshman year college footage? This guy was really hyped. He was supposedly the next undersized shooting guard superstar. Not that quick, but he's got the Baron Davis body thing going on. Has some potential at point, but not sure if he's ever able to play it effectively because he likes to score. The guy doesn't pass and he's not much of a distributor or on-ball defender.

    Sounds like he could be a D Wade type of player. Wouldnt that be nice?

    Woah long time no hear, WFS93. I think DJ will just be a scorer, and that's it. He doesn't really defend well, he's smaller than Dwade, he lacks playmaking skills like other star shooting guards, and he's not very quick like Allen Iverson. He's probably about the same physical body as Baron Davis only leaner and maybe not as long in the arms.
