Playing him sure doesn't increase his trade value.

And if we sat him completely? Basically just telling other teams he has no worth to their team? I'm not saying I agree with playing Duhon, but I could see politics behind the decision.

Regardless, no one is trading for him anyway.

Final year is only guaranteed for 1.5 mil if waived in summer of 2013. Basically we got him for next year and he's gone.

See Mil going for a big lead with Duhon back

My heart hoped it would be Ish, but my brain knew it would be Doodoo.

Of course no one would go out of their way to pursue Duhon, but he could be used as a filler in a trade for a team that could use a back up point guard. Selling him as that isn't out of the question.

Dumb team is a dumb team :dontknow:

I don't know, I think you have to leave Nelson in for a few more minutes. You can't risk playing Doo-hon 8+ minutes and then however many in the 4Q as well.

I really do find it interesting that our media guys and to a lesser extent the natl media guy never bring up backup PG (or starting PG) as our problem area.

Lol, we are losing at home to the Bucks

Poor Ish sitting on the bench knowing he's way better than Duhon.

Just tweeted Josh Robbins of the Orlando Sentinel:

@JoshuaBRobbins for the love of God and ALL Magic fans. Please ask SVG why Duhon continues to get minutes while Ish just sits on the pine?

Let's see if he has the balls to ask

If you're going to run Hedo/Duhon and Hedo handles the ball, why not run our best defender at PG to cover jennings? Is Liggins too slow, is there no one else on our team to guard other guards?

Ersan Ilyasova looks like Dolph Lungren in the face.

He, and the rest of the O-Magic crew, don't have the balls. I've been asking them all that since we picked Ish up and they never respond/ask.
