He's not shaking out of this--this has been his consistent play over the last 40 games of last year and the first 19 games including pre-season this year. I really think the Knicks were set to acquire AI and we came back against Indiana and they thought otherwise. Maybe a combination of his back and his personal off court decisions have just brought him from a back up to what should be a guy playing in France right now--and he is our starting PG--Chris Duhon is last in efficiency--in the ENTIRE NBA and he starts PG for us. I cant believe this is DW--this is MDA--I think DW needs to step in here and say enough is enough.

What is scary is that the Lakers were backing off of him and daring him to shoot. That takes away any potential at driving as he just isn't quick enough. Basically, if that is the case, you can't lose anything by letting Douglas start with the ball. Keep Gallo out there to try to help with movement. The only thing that Duhon does at this point is play some defense. He can't shoot, can't break down defenses, and on and on.

Give the ball to Douglas D'Antoni, even Nate to a point. If we want Douglas to learn the position, then we might as well start now. At least other teams have to pay attention to him...

What is interesting is that the Coach is going to be, or rather is, forced to play rookies over vets but for some reason is so reluctant. I think we can surmise that Duhon is not in a slump as it extends to the second half of last year and is actually getting worse.

Sign AI or put the ball in Douglas and Gallo's hands on offense. One or the other.

Duhon must go. He's in over his head.

I guess most of last season was just a ridiculous fluke?

he played really well in november, december and january and then broke down. i thought he could come out of it this season, but it seems more like people have just figured him out. he's only effective in the pick and roll with dlee and he's afraid to shoot - he's afraid to shoot layups.

Duhon's confidence is way down. What D'antoni and Walsh are trying to do is restore his confidence. They feel that Duhon is the key to turning this season around if he can play at the level he played at last year. It's an interesting look at the relationship between Donnie and Mike. If the coach benches Duhon he makes the GM look bad because there is no substitute on the roster. Coach has said repeatedly that Duhon is the best PG on the roster. That's a message to the GM.... get me a better roster.
lol @ being BANNED by Martin since 11/07/10 (for asking if Mr. Earl had a point). Really, Martin? C'mon. This is the internet. I've seen much worse on this site. By Earl himself. Drop the hypocrisy.

Dudu's defense is excellent every game. Every game he limits Gallo's touches.

if Duhon's confidence in shooting is so down, why does he still decide to shoot those 3-pointers that are like 6 feet behind the arc? Dumbest thing I ever saw.

And I think I finally saw him finally make a layup last night. No one was around and he barely got it in and practically fell down doing a reverse lay-in.

Dude has been pathetic for the most part. A few good assists here and there, but that's it.

What does last year have to do with this year? Truth be told he's only continuing his play from the second half of last season.

Makes me sick. I can barely watch the games anymore.

I haven't posted in a while and I want to say Duhon need to go! Knicks are going nowhere with him continuing to start at pg. I'm fed up with Duhon.
Knicks are happening and have a Unicorn.

I actually like when he jacks up a 40 footer with 20 seconds on the clock as his teammates are running up the floor to get in position on offense. Reminds me of a young me.
I just hope that people will like me

I'm surprised there is no in fighting. If I was on the team they would have to trade or release me. I would have threatened Duhon once or twice by now

See? That's why I don't complain. Shandon, Othella, Eisley and clarence weatherspoon where so much worse and less interesting than this squad. New York is always the last contract for bums.

Half our roster is currently playing itself out of the league.

Let it be known: I believe in the Knicks this year-- deep into the playoffs, I swear to you my brothers...
