For me....Duhon playing at all.
Our young guys, Chandler, Douglas, Hill, and Gallo, just aren't that good...You can't build for the future with role players, and with the possible exception of Gallo, that's all we have...
You're right about that if you compare them with Thunder's Wesbrook, Durant, Green, Harden which are four terrific young players. However, I do feel that Gallinari and Hill were the best choices we had available at the spot of the draft. We have 6'10 in Gallinari that can do it all and with time should be able to put forth 22 pts, 7 rbs ,4 assist an make others around him better. In Hill we have Horace Grant/Dale Davis in the making. There is no doubt that if we bring in a Lebron or Wade here Hill will benefit the most. He has to get stronger but I feel that Walsh did the right thing in drafting him as we had to get bigger with the draft.
This my dream lineup for the 2010-2011 season:
pg Rubio
sg Gallinari
sf Lebron
pf Hill
c Milicic
Bench: Anybody that wants to be part of the New York Knicks and take a paycut.
Lebron would be better at SG than Gallinari.
Gallinari is 6"10 225...not really explosive like Lebron, terrible match up.

This season is already over. You can tell because of contract situations none of the players give a shit. When Nate took the shot on his own basket today it was clear when they zoomed in on D'Antoni and the players, none of hte players respect D'Antoni. IT's not his fault that he lost his team already, it's more the fact that everyone is expiring. That said, hopefully we draft smartly for the future. Somehow i don't believe Walsh when he says Dolan isn't involved in basketball operations.
Also Gallinari angers me with his lack of athletic ability (but i'm more angry because i think he has potential to be great). He's the worst defensive player i've ever seen......hopefully there are excercises to increase explosiveness cuz that is what he needs.
this will easily be resolved next year with the guaranteed arrival of James. :gony:The lack of leadership on the floor.
