    I'm not even a big fan of his or anything and Lakers are my team but i had to bring this up. He is the First Rookie to avg. 7ast. per game since Oscar robinson... and then he had 19pts,13ast,10rebs he is going to be a good Pointguard for a long time.

    I didn't think he'd be this good, but it's still early.

    He is good but he didn't have to guard his man at all against the Rockets, he played zone all game long.

    AB would have lit his ass up.

    See everyone keeps telling me that I over-state Wall's ability... but no, I just have a good eye for basketball ability ;)

    John is going to have good and bad games this season, but his raw talent is evident every night out.

    I just wish he wouldn't have played so flawlessly against us last night. His having 1 turnover is his best game so far this season!

    He's putting up some good numbers: 19 ppg, 10 assists, 4 rebounds, 3 steals, and (regrettably) 5 turnovers.

    Reminds me of the sick stat line Francis put up his rookie year: 18 ppg, 7 assists, 5 rebounds, 2 steals, 4 turnovers.

    His biggest flaw is turnovers. Not really concerned with his jumper since he can get to the hole with ease and find his teammates. Sadly he has his best turnover game against us lol.

    Wall is definitely going to be a star in this league.

    I really doubt that, Aaron would have no physical advantage over Wall, which includes speed(something that he usually has over other PG). He definitely would have struggled trying to get his shot over the length of Wall (6'9 wingspan).

    Not to mention Brooks would have been torn to shreds on defense..

    he was all over the place last night. Of course he still has things to work on but the tools are there.

    Dude's killing it for my fantasy team.

    DeMarcus Cousins not so much. Damn you, Samuel Dalembert!
