wuddup yo
ive been busy pretty much since the draft but i thought i would comment on Duhon
i dont really like the move and i feel that we should of used the MLE on a shot blocking big and just let Steph run the point with Nate one more year until weadress a future PG next year. Also Duhon is more of a half court PG and he plays more of the style that Mark Jackson plays not a guy who runs the fast breaklike D'Antoni likes. Also i feel if wqe did want a PG to hold us over in the meantime there was a better crop than Duhon, but Duhon is more of that passfirst guy which is what we would be looking for.
I mean i dont like Duhon at all and i dont really like the move but i can see why we did it. There was definitley alot of good in this move. I read an articlethat compared him to Howard Eisley who was the PG who held things dopwn until we got our PG for the future in Marbury. For the next year or 2 while we haveDuhon under contract, him and Nate make a solid PG core whose styles really contrast one anothers. Nate is tiny and more of a scorer and he is super athletyicand explosive while Duhon is a bigger guard and he is slower and better in a half court set and he is much more pass first. These two will make a nice cobo forthe next 2 years and we wont win too much with them but Duhon will build chemostry whjich is more importantr than wins for our team. Cause with guys that needthe ball like Crawford and others on our team we really just need a PG who can get them the ball. Also Duhon is a solid defender which is a huge plus. Andalthough the MLE is pretty large we only got him for two years so he can run the poi9nt when we are rebuilding but his contract comes off the books in 2010when we start adressing positions to win like signing a big free agent and maybe using the draft to get a PG for the future. What i am saying is that Duhonmakes sense for right now he will work hard and distribute the ball, he is also young and his contract doesnt last so we get what we get from him in these 2years, and if he turns out to be a bust than fine we are done with him buy 2010 unlike the JJ signings. And if he really helps us in the rebuilding effort andmakes us more fun to watch he will play nicely in these 2 years and than some other team can over pay for him.
this also helps us out in that we have a PG top hold us over for the next 2 years so we dont need to give up Lee to trade for a PG likle Felton nor some +#*+.Instead we can keep Lee who will help alot or package him with a bum like Curry or Z Bo to get rid of them and maybe get a solid big man for the future who canblock shots and play D in return which i think is more important anyway. so maybe its a blessing in disguise that we use the MLE on a PG rather than a big sowe can trade a bum like curry/Z Bo for a big better than what we would get for them MLE who can block shots and +#*+.
Overall i think we could of dont better, but its a decent move and it makes sense which is more than what i can say about anytrhing this past decade withLayden/Isiah
