    Chris Duhon is an average PG and those are average numbers he had in NYK.

    I'm not really concerned with what kind of money Felton is making. I don't get wrapped up in that when judging talent. Felton is a starter and around middle of the pack among starting PG's and even you agree with that. That is above average. If the argument was above average for starters, than you may have a point. But, I said above average among PG's. Without a doubt he's above average and certainly a better PG than Beno and Bledsoe which he was compared to originally.

    That's what I've been reading from various Knick/Warrior forums. The general consensus is that he's very talented, athletic, and has a lot of potential but he just doesn't have it in the IQ department. That sounds exactly like Travis Outlaw and Tyrus Thomas.

    Just for clarification its not a low "bball IQ" its just immaturity and prima donna issues. Some of that he should grow out of but he may have some kind of bipolar disorder. Hes no Ron Artest as far as craziness but he looks like hes about to cry a lot and challenges a lot of opposing players. Outlaw doesn't seem like a headcase he just seems like he doesn't have great bball instincts/IQ. That isn't the issue with Randolph its more about his attitude and sense of entitlement, possibly work ethic.
