Who will I incessantly rip on now?
Matt waxes vitriolic on the end of the Chris Duhon Era in Chicago: "Duhon gets praised as a 'pass-first' point guard. But he's not 'pass first'. He's 'ass first'. His most preferred style of play is to play like ass. Then pass, then shoot. Oftentimes never getting to that third one, crippling your offensive flow, and ticking me off."

He doesn't turn the ball over, can hassle opposing PGs effectively, and he'll give you one game a year where he hits a half-dozen three-pointers. Maybe given limited minutes and strict instructions when to shoot ... he'd be especially effective. But this contract is the second multi-yeared-and-millioned deal he's received in his career, and it's the essence of what is wrong with having ...
