Adding Duhon solves nothing

Duhon is going to get a chance to start for the Knicks. The club doesn’t mind putting its faith in a player that had some clear off the court issues last year and isn’t known to be strong defensively. For some reason some people don’t get that to win championships, the starters need to be solid players offensively and defensively. Teams are going to attack Duhon and paring him with Jamal Crawford doesn’t appear to be a duo that will be any better than what the Knicks had last year. It’s baffling that the Knicks weren’t seriously reported as being interested in trading for Kirk Hinrich. He seems like the best potentially available point guard, although if a smart general manager would pair Hinrich in the backcourt with Rose. Hinrich would be nice complement offensively and he would be able to take ball handling pressure off the rookie. Plus he’s a defender that’s, at least, willing to get dirty.
