Last year, it was Gallo. It seemed odd to freeze out your best shooter, but I'll give Nate a free pass on that one because Gallo wasn't 100% healthy. This year, it looks like it's Douglas's turn which is pretty odd since he's our PG. The concept making sure your PG never touches the ball just doesn't seem like a winning formula. When will this kid ever grow up? I've just about given up on Nate. Sure he's talented but he just doesn't get that BB is a team sport.

How so? I think it's a serious concern when the three guys we have to run the point can't act as a true PG. Nate is a selfish player, Duhon lacks quickness and imagination and Douglass lacks experience. of the three, Douglas has the most potential, so let's get him the ball when he's on the floor.

Nate is the SG off the bench for the Knicks. He is a scorer not a PG.

I watched the game, Nate brought the ball up and ran the point most of the time he was on the floor. He didn't even look to the side of the floor Douglas was on. We've become entirely to predictable

still, Nate is a scorer, not a PG and MDA knows it. I think MDA must have been upset at something that Douglas was doing/not doing to have him play only 2 minutes. Probably had to do with the fact that he launched himself at a 3point shooter who was falling away or something and fouled him pretty badly.

It's ridiculous because Douglas played 6 minutes

I would hand the keys over to Nate in a second if I thought he was going to at least try to distribute the ball.

Our PG situation is the worst in the league.

Alan Hahn: Nate Robinson has been on a ridonkulous scoring tear lately (remember when he couldn't hit Jerome James with a Big Mac in early January?)

That might be a good question to the ask the coach. It would be interesting to see what he has to say or if he feels accountable at all for this.

Nate will be good some day, and bad-afful another.
Same goes for du-du.
