Hahn: "As Duhon goes, so go the Knicks".

I dont know why it hasn’t happened yet, but put larry hughes in duhon’s spot. i actually liked hughes play at the point earlier in the season… larry had streak of games to where he doesnt shoot well, and gets put deep in the bench.. duhon has a streak of sets of games to where he plays like me on the court.. and he still starts.. huh?!?!?!

dwtdd? l hughes? nate? cmon dantoni.. now is the time to fold the hand duhon has dealt us and let someone else have a try and ruuning the point. we have so many different options here.

I think that Duhon has always been inconsistent with bouts of lost shooting confidence. It’s who he is, despite the skills he sometimes displays and the rolls he gets on. He’s not really helping but what are the options? Hughes? Yes, he has some point guard skills. But he doesn’t want to be a point guard and he’s prone to taking bad shots which is what we’ve seen from him after a good stretch. Douglas looks tentative and not ready and N8 is N8. But i do believe we are headed for a N8/toney rotation.

Du averaged like 20 min a game for his career and we brought him in to play 40 min a game with no backup. The idea was to ride him hard for two years (pause) on a cheap contract then find a real PG. Unfortunately, he’s broken down faster than that.

In limited minutes, TD hasn’t looked like much of a passer. Not sure I’d trust him in limited minutes, let alone extended minutes. Sadly, Hughes might be the best way to go. He can’t shoot worse than Du (he’ll try), and he’s more versatile on D. But, ugh, Larry Hughes

There are no good free agent points this summer.

hes a great backup, but its gotta end there. when he plays more than 15 he becomes completely useless and actually makes ppl around him worse because of the way he stalls the offense and doesnt get teammates the ball in good aggressive positions. david lee has become our best creator, the same david lee who never used to have a single play called for him and instead had to get involved offensively by getting offensive rebounds. now commands the entire offense. i say we take a shot on sergio rodriguez, hes fast and aggressive, 2 things duhon is not. he is turnover prone tho, so maybe veteran t.j. is a better option- hes quick too

He’s tentative cause he’s looking to get yanked everytime he makes a mistake and get buried for 2 weeks. We know what N8 can do we know about NoCanDu. Let us see pretty Toney and his fishcale and see if he can run the point in MSG.

This is on Donnie Walsh. Chris Duhon has always been inconsistent and deficient. He was overpaid for in the first place. He most definitely has skills. He doesn’t use them because he has no heart and no hunger.

Duhon does drive — right by the basket to make guess-passes that often end up in the guests hands. It was a bad acquisition from day one when we needed a quality PG not a back-up from the Chicago Bulls.

Over at Newsday they have been getting trickier and trickier with blocking the Knicks fix. But I discovered a way to view it, not comment or anything, but at least read the entries, and I don’t think it’s illegal.

but its true.

Its not really Duhon..its just who the PG is, cuz if they had a decent one it could help a whole lot.

Nate is probably the ideal one..but he’s just too out of control. If he could be under control, he’s a good 3pt shooter, very fast and can score at the hole..and when he is under control, he can make good passes.

…its a shame, cuz the Knicks ideal PG probably is on the roster..he just refuses to become it.

It doesn’t matter, so long “as Duhon goes.”

Then all will be better.
