Since November 14, Chris Duhon is averaging 42 minutes a night, without relief in sight.

“Although he told me last night he didn’t want to come out because he’s a warrior. But it is a concern... 40 or 43, that’s too many right now,” D’Antoni said. “I have to pick my spots,” Duhon said. “Get as much rest, hydrate as much as possible during timeouts, get off my feet as much as I can. And I just can’t think about Nate.”

December brings 5 consecutive road games in eight days. As people discuss the future of the Knicks, how Duhon responds will be worth following.

So much for the party image.

Good point and I think he will survive because, as D'antoni said, he is a warrior. His play has suffered because of fatigue and the trades, bus he is still fighting there and right now that's all that matters.

He definitely is a keeper.

We need Nate back, but Duhon is a playing hard and well given the crummy circumstances.

knicks1248 - remember how some people raved about the way David Lee played in the Rookie-Sophmore Game during All-Star weekend?

The Knicks now have someone who can direct the offense and deliver the ball to Lee in prime position to do the same things.

I don't have a problem with that.
