His salary wouldve been around the vet min anyway.

I just don't know why they gave up on him.



He is absolute garbage, that's why. Any guy we could sign for the vet min will be better then him.

there's a pattern with Ish that he plays extremely well in the first half but not as well in the 2nd.
I mainly think that's because the ball is in his hands less and more in other guy's like Hedo and JJ.
We'll see.
If Duhon is part of the rotation next game I will cut my wrist.

But Duhon is a better 3-pointer and has a lot of experience.

When was the last time Duhon had 5 assists in less than a quarter played :lol: ... let alone A FULL GAME

You know what's sad? he's still going to be the backup point when he comes back. :cry:


Miracles can happen, just gotta believe... :D

My hope is Duhon is punished for being late twice in a week and hopefully it is for the remainder of this season.

Don't wanna jinx it, but we have only 2 TOs so far. Both from Jameer.

I mean Stan HAS to see what's happening out there....how can you have such a talent on the bench that's perfect for our Pick and Roll system and just let him rot on the bench when we could use him.....

He was waiting to use him just in the POs, so the others teams wouldnt have time to adjust to our new squad.

It's sad to see that it comes down to politics as the reason why some guys don't play.....Ish is easily a better Point Guard and player than Duhon and yet.......
