Do NOT expect Duhon to be a good offensive player. OK? So save all the "OMG HE CAN'T SHOOT" stuff.

 

He had 22 assists once so he should start over Jameer.

I know all about Duhon, off the bench, behind Meer he will be exceptional for us. He does have the potential to get hot on the offensive end, but really, running an offense and finding guys is his game, he's not a great defender by any means, but he does a good job overall. I like the signing, liked it a few seasons ago too when we were in talks with him.

Solid pick up and should work out better than J-Will did when he kind of ran out of gas as the season went on. Solid back-up who can start if Paul...err...Jameer gets injured.

 

Kind of glad they didn't mess too much with Watson. GS was just not going to let that happen and Otis probably knew it with GS rejecting a pretty good trade proposal last year.

 

Gotta love how Otis snags a guy he wants without the name ever even being linked to the Magic.

Duhon is indeed great. I think you'll see how much his defense will look All-NBA on the Magic. Granted it isn't, he is a very determined defender and gets physical, and while the Knicks displayed an awful defense, the Magic do not...

 

 

He also has a good mid range shot, likes to drive and dish and although not really an offensive threat, he still fits well with the bench because he's a guy that doesn't require many shots (on a team full of guys that do) but works his *** off on the defensive end (on a team full of guards that don't defend).

 

 

Offensively, I expect him to do pretty much what JWill did, except he might be involved in a few more pick and rolls. Defensively, he'll be an upgrade.

 

 

 

Good move. Too bad we're trading him for LeBron James in a few months.
