When you're a rookie on a team that possesses four All-Stars and is coming off a second title in three years, it's hard to steal the headlines. But through the first two weeks of the season, that's exactly what Jordan Bell has done.

In the latter stages of the Warriors' blowout win over the Mavericks last Monday night, Bell turned a fastbreak into his own personal dunk contest. With no one in front of him, the rookie flipped the ball off the backboard and dunked it. Understandly, the Mavericks weren't thrilled that Bell appeared to be showboating in a 25-point game.

A week later, Bell turned in another highlight-reel effort when he followed a missed 3-pointer by Nick Young with a soaring putback dunk against the Clippers.

His early-season showing has prompted some to dream about Bell in the Slam Dunk contest contest during All-Star weekend in Los Angeles in February.

"I'm all able and willing. It's just if my name gets called for it," Bell said on SiriusXM NBA Radio on Tuesday. "I've got some stuff. I got some dunks."

As for the controversial dunk against the Mavericks, Bell addressed the reaction from his teammates and what he learned from that situation.

"They loved it. Everybody loved it. Even [Head coach Steve] Kerr, he told me 'I thought it was great, but you have to understand some people aren't going to like everything you do.' But that's just everything you do in life. There are going to be people that agree with you and people who disagree with you, so you just have to take it. I wasn't doing it to be disrespectful. I was just having fun playing basketball. He said people are going to take that to heart, so they might elbow you on the next play. I caught an elbow the very next play, too," Bell said.

So what will Bell do the next time he's got a wide-open lane on a fastbreak?

"Probably won't throw it off the backboard just because of the politics and all. I'm definitely going to do something special," Bell said.
