    if we're not going to get another backup/starting PG, aaron brooks has to be the main guy next yr. bobby was just to provide veteran help b/c brooks was too young. but we need to push brooks out there. he has a distinct characteristic in quickness that we lack.

    hopefully, aaron will improve his all-around game next yr. he gives me a lot of hope.

    Steve if healthy first.

    AB second.

    Jackson doesn't have what it takes to run as a starting PG. Off the bench he could be great though.

    I like Chris Duhon alright, too. I don't know if he's really starting-caliber, but he has a good knack at protecting and delivering the ball (which is everything to me). He is nice at catch & shoot 3s, but he's weak at taking the ball into the lane and scoring. I'm also a little concerned at how he acted out last year. Pissy is not a quality you want in your PG. All said, I'd take him in a S&T (Francis & Hayes?).

    Seen skip Sunday at Scott Gerdners Sky Bar on Richmond, he was on crutches but didn't appear to be seriously hurt. Sorry don't carry cameras. Wondered if anybody else seen him or did he have some surgery of some sort. He seemed any good spirit like it could have been minor.

    It seems like a rather logical idea. I would be curious to see how well he plays as a starter as opposed to playing as an off-the-bench player. After seeing how other people did at starting in Rafer's place at PG, it certainly wouldn't hurt IMO.

    I am anxious to see how he does in the NBA pro summer league, though.
