D Wagner isn't playing for Warriors

The once high school phenom who scored 100 points in a game, has not even left the bench this season for the Golden State Warriors. Even last night, when the Warriors were shorthanded and without star Jason Richardson, Wagner still sat. I guess the reports have been that since his return from a colon operation, he has only focused on his offensive game. Nellie thinks he'll be a defensive liability. Wait, what?...Nellie's teams don't play defense anyway! Wagner is a high powered scoring machine, and would be perfect for the Warriors new up-tempo style of play, this doesn't make any sense. The Warriors haven't played any D all season long, why not put a proven scorer on the floor when you're not stopping anybody anyway!

it looks like J-Rich may miss some games so he'll get his chance. Monta is ready to start and he's only 21 so he has tons of potential.

Monta is playing really well right now, I think he had 21 last night against Chris Paul. Warriors fans should be really excited about his potential and what he's doing right now. J-Rich should only come back when he's fully healthy, its a long season and the Warriors can't afford to have him only able to hoist three's from outside, they need his explosiveness.

monta is good but i wish they'd give this guy a chance.

He deserves a chance with the injuries to J-Rich and it being early in the season.

D Wagner was overrated in high school and at Memphis. Yes, Mr. Ellis is finally ready to shine in the NBA, but he has to learn to be more active on the offensive end with out the ball.
