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.
No, it doesn't get swept under the rug.... everyone shoves that down my throat any time I suggest we play the young guys.... and, that's an overrated excuse.... Ish has watched about 30 games already.... all he needs is Stan telling him look at this play you see what he did there, don't do that, and do this instead, etc. obviously, it's one thing to see it and another to do it, but, he's seen enough.... there is no reason to play J-Poor and Doo-hon, there is absolutely 0 reason, no reason at **** all.........
Yeah, I think the number of games excuse can only take you but so far. We only need the backup to play ~18 MPG, and it's not like we run set plays with the bench anyway. Ish is more than ready to supplant Doo-hon from the rotation.
