    I know there was a thread for this earlier but I searched the first couple pages and could not find it.. I know there is a way to search but the way I was doing it was not working, on a sidenote, maybe someone can teach me how to do this? Thanks
    --------

    I watched the whole Charlotte v Miami game today and this guy really makes his teammates better. He see's a lot of things before they develop, and sometimes even passes to a teammate to get the ball to a third teammate (therefore not reflecting in assists numbers). He finished today 10/19 for 27pts,2reb,6 assists.

    I've heard that Charlotte does not want to depart with him but I really feel like this guy plays the game with a mature scope on things, and more like a 26-27 year old even though he is only 21. I know he is small but he still is able to get into the lane and put up layups or dish the ball to a teammate for a dunk.

    Is there anyway to get this guy before trade line? I know he may have his negatives, but do you all think he may be a good fit?

    Forget it because the Bobcats will not trade him. He's their ideal player: Very productive and on a rookie contract. He is gold to them.

    He'd be an excellent fit. He can run an offense and shoot the three. He's also young and athletic. Whats not to like about that?

    Yeh, he's the ideal PG for us. Unfortunately he's a franchise player for the bobcats. He's not going anywhere.

    I've never seen Larry Brown so high on a rookie. Forget it... they will part with Okafor and Wallace before they touch Augustin

    Drafting Augustin= only right move MJ has done. Now if only they could get a legit SG they'd be all set. The irony is they already had J-rich lol

    Wrong, Trading Jason Richardson for Raja Bell and Boris Diaw was a FANTASTIC deal...

    DJ is just amazing. The kid looks to pass before a shot and is a very smart player. He is staying with the team for yrs to come.

    Larry Brown, DJ Augustin, Bell/Diaw-J-Rich trade, trading away Adam Morrison, its been a decent year for MJ.

    there are a ton of scoring pgs out there that can score... Hell i bet if you give Maurice Ager 20 shots he can at least put up 20 points. That doesn't mean he can guard anyone.

    I'm really confused by your post....

    Well from what I'm understanding you say that anyone can score with a huge amount of shots:

    1. DJ is not a scoring PG he is as true as they come.
    2. Maurice Ager is a shooting gaurd not a PG.
    3. Who said that DJ can gaurd anyone? I'm pretty sure he's not
    getting love for his D as a rook.

    That's just comin from what I understood. ;)

    DJ is keeping the Bobs in the game......

    They need to trade Felton pronto and let this guy develop.......
    A healthy Crash would not hurt either...

    I still can't believe the Thunder took Russell Westbrook over DJ.
    Yes I know Russell is having a decent rookie season as well but I'm just a huge fan of DJ's game.
