I swear if I was as bad as Duhon, I would be so embarrassed to even go out there. Stan hasn't even put Howard back in and we're half way through the 2nd. Oh Stan...you kill me.

Q has been solid for us this year. Baby has struggled, but you can't tell me all of a sudden he forgot how to play basketball. Sooner or later he'll get back in the groove of things. So, the only one I can agree with is Doo-hon.

Our bench isn't *that* bad; they're simply mismanaged. If Stan was creative enough to run Hedo more with the second unit and eliminate Doo-hon's minutes, we'd see a huge improvement.


Our bench isn't that bad? League average PER is 15, and Duhon, Davis and Richardson have a PER of 8! Now obviously PER isn't the end-all-be-all, but it is somewhat of an indication of just how poor of a bench we have.


I'm not disagreeing on Doo-hon. He's the worst PG in the league, I'm sure.

Now, to take that one step further: How can a bench lineup succeed when it has no playmakers? Q, for all intent and purposes, is mostly a spot-up shooter. Baby has a decent jumper, but his ISOs leave a lot to be desired. As generic as it sounds, sometimes an easy basket helps to get these guys going. Unfortunately, Doo-hon isn't capable of creating.

Put either Nelson or Hedo with Baby & Q and I'd be willing to bet that their percentages would go up.

There's just something that doesn't seem right in the world when a player like Duhon is getting consistent minutes. There's something just not right...
Dwight Howard on his FT struggles:

"I just think everybody needs to stop talking about it," Howard said. "There's more to life than free throws."

The announcers for the Bucks sound drunk or something.

Not that i'm disagreeing with your overall message, but if you're playing in the NBA you shouldn't have to have everything spoon-fed for you to be able to do anything on the court.

Even in BOS Glen Davis was well below league average PER, and that was with Rajon Rondo and Paul Pierce. Q-Rich hasn't posted league average PER since his last year in LAC, and that was 8 years ago.
