I gotta say, Duhon has made a couple bad plays, but he's playing much better than before.

i just dont think he has the handles for it full-time. could be similar to Harden though. Harden basically plays point when he is in with Westbrook.

I kind of figured that much... I just wasn't too sure.. .curious what you guys thought... Redick is very crafty with his dribbles I must say... but I agree with what you said

Dwight's been missing a lot of free throws wide left.

His routine is shorter and smoother when he practices.

Another difference is that he, you know, actually makes them in practice.
11/18/2017 - I have officially disowned Nikola Vucevic and branded him a loser.

- Skal Labissiere was my guy in 2016 pre-trade. Whoops, but I still believe.
- Malik Monk was my guy in 2017. Whoops(?)
- Mo Bamba was my guy in 2018. TBD.

He made some nice passes in transition... and made open shots... if he can do that much I'll be more forgiving

i agree with what you mean though. He makes good decisions and is decent with his handles. Many SG's are bigger than him, but not always as quick. I think if he was playing point, he would be at a big speed disadvantage added to his handling.

It's when he's timid and indecisive, that's when he makes mistakes... he forces passes that turn into turnovers, or he picks up his dribble in bad situations... if he can avoid that and just play within himself, he's... okay.... I still don't like him that much, I'd rather see Hughes get some burn at PG... but if Duhon is going to be out there, I'd rather he minimize mistakes

if they play the nets 60 more times they will be.


No, I realized it in OKC game actually. This is like the Magic of last year after the trades. They try to play a fast-paced aggressive game. I remember Magic was scoring around ~20 pts on fastbreaks during that 9 win streak and then they somehow slowed down scoring close to nothing on fastbreaks and everything went wrong.
