Having Houston would give us a couple of wins, but who would you rather have? One of Crawford, Marbury or Francis (The way they are playing NOW) or Houston before he was hurt. Yes, the defense is bad, and having him pretty much wouldn't do anything to solve that. However, he's a solid passer (Please don't throw me the 2 assists a game arguement) and he wasn't turnover prone and he was a guy you could count on. We've got none of that right now.

His defense was pretty much average at best, but as TMS said, he was able to do well at bodying up and could play man to man defense against guys his size. But when he had to start fighting through screens, his downfall began. He wasn't any better than any guys we have in that department.

Good leader to have though who just did his job, no excuses. At this point, I'll take him over any of the guys we have besides Q, and I'll take both of them equally. A backcourt of Q and Houston > Sprewell and Houston.
