Other than the fact that Duhon is shooting well from the 3pt line this season, he is absolutely worthless on this team. I am confident if this was a full season and we were able to get normal practice time, Ish would already be backing up Jameer.
Ish is certainly the type of backup you want behind Jameer. He provides speed and quickness in that position which we badly need.
I did not say that i said Stan thinks he does that is why he plays more and he might be right just because duhon is a veteran but not enough to warrant this torture we have to watch now
ISH>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Duhon
I hear you. I wasn't trying to call you out or anything. I see where you are coming from. What I am trying to say I guess is coming from Stan's point of view which what you expressed earlier. He plays Duhon because he is the safe choice being that he was here last season and at least knows the offensive sets.
However if this was a 82 game season, Ish would have this backup job already cause Ish would be able to get full practices in.We can only hope Stan develops some confidence in Ish and allows him to play. I mean it is pretty evident on the impact he made in this game alone when he was out there.
IMO this fact get's swept under the rug. His naturaly ability makes him better than Duhon but in a long stretch of games as a primary back up, his lack of familiarity of the system would eventually catch up to him and thats just setting him up for failure. You cant take a small sample size to justify a complete change in the rotation. So I think the arm chair NBA coaches need need to lay off of Stan a little bit and let him do his job. Most teams would be a bottom dweller if they had to go through what this team has. Get these guys a full training camp and and I'm willing to bet we see alot more Ish and Liggins next year.
