but i knew it was bound to happen. i thought maybe we could get 5 games from nate as a starter. but it’s obvious that nate is unfairly held to a higher standard.

…Shit is shit.

Start em, sit em. Back and forth. How the hell are you supposed to gain and or maintain any continuity this way. I know this year is a real challenge from a coach’s standpoint – to put together a winning team with many expiring contracts – but this is getting to be too much for me to watch.

Remember during the offseason when NYK were looking for a new starting PG and Duhon kept crying and couldn’t understand why the Knicks would be looking to replace him? Well this is why. In stretches, we have seen Duhon be an effective player. In fact, the story of the Knicks this season has been as Duhon goes, so does NYK. But what I am fearful of is that Duhon is hitting a wall. In his first full year as a starter, we saw this from Duhon. His expanded role and increase in minutes led to a late season burn out and he was inconsistent and downright bad. This year, I see a combination of that and a frustration with the idea of him knowing that in all likelihood, he will not be the Knicks starting PG next year.

In reality, the Knicks are only a handful of games away from the 8th seed in the East. With an effective Duhon, the Knicks may be able to make a late season push. The question is, how realistic is that opportunity and when does the Front Office and Coach D’Antoni decide to showcase our future (ie a Lineup of Douglas, Chandler, Gallo, Lee and Hill)

tomorrow is Jewish Heritage Night at MSG and Coach Pringles thinks Duhon is Jewish because he went to Duke and has a big nose.

And he sucks at basketball and his hair would look like Seth’s if he grew it out.
