Time to get D.J. going

I don't go to Columbus thinking I'll see an upset, but I'm always in favor of the unexpected. Instead, it would be nice just to see D.J. Richardson have a good game and shake this numbing funk that seems to have enveloped him.

A lot of time when a kid goes into a slump, he at least has something he can fall back on, something he remains confident about. In D.J.'s case, he doesn't seem confident in anything right now -not in his shot, not in his defense, not in anything.
