Who will make a stronger case: The Answer or The Suggestion? I'd almost
forgotten how absent Duhon had been until tonight. This is one of his
games. This is not one of Hinrich's games, unfortunately. Duhon can
play with Hinrich, and Gordon can play with Hinrich, but Duhon can't
play with Gordon. Why?
On another note, Tyson was due for an off night, but it's hard not to
loathe him for letting it happen against the likes of Shavlik Randolph
and Michael Bradley. Philly is without the only two post players they
have who belong in the NBA. (Parenthetically, they need this game
badly. So do we. If you're Mo Cheeks, how do you let Dalembert and
Webber take the same night off? He seems like a nice guy, but Mo's got
nothing but charm going for him as a coach. Unless this is a tacit
admission about how much Chris Webber means to this team.)
Skiles seemed prepared to give Sweetney a chance to get back in the
rotation, and again Sweetney seemed eager for it, but he's just not in
game condition, mentally. He gets locked into shots he doesn't need to
take, his form is abysmal, and he flails around on defense. It really
would help if he could make a contribution.
Three minutes left...
