Duhon, is terrible. There's no getting around it and it isn't going to change. He is who he is. Otis really struck out on this one, that signing just really baffles me, especially considering the fact that he hand picked this guy on two different occasions!! Terrible.

Seriously the next time people direct the subject of their posts at describing in a negative light another poster I'm telling Howard Mass....

but seriously, cut the call outs, use the ignore feature more. You're going to make me cry.

Hakeem "enabled" Dwight. Many of the skills were already there, either naturally or through working with Ray/Ewing but Dwight couldn't access them on a regular basis. The work with Hakeem goes beyond physical skill and into the realm of understanding mental development. In other words, Dwight's physical skills didn't all of a sudden get better overnight, Dwight learned some mental skills that now allow him to play in his zone and access his skills that allow for a good performance.

It all actually started before Hakeem when Dwight watched that movie "Peaceful Warrior." If you haven't seen it, its not a great movie but all about Zen philosophy, simplified so people could understand some of the concepts. Once Dwight accepted that movie, he saw the potential of what the subconscious mind is able to do.

Nope it's not . The guy is a 0 on the offensive end. He can't shoot, can't create for others and can't drive. He's just a awful player and person. The guy shouldn't even be in the league

WOW Did Chris steal your GF Pedro, calm down there ese.

I agree. I actually watched the Knicks every now and then last year (still do, to be honest), and he looked exactly how he looks now.
