Duhon signs with Magic

Duhon goes to a team looking for a backup, not a starter. He could have taken up a spot Raymond Felton's gunning for, tightening the PG market, but instead helps out the other free agents, just like Steve Blake did going to the Lakers.

Duhon career PER 36 stats:

9.8 pts, 6.5 assists, 3.2 rebs, 1.1 steals, 2.1 tov, .393 fg, .362 3pt, .797 ft

Felton career per 36 stats:

13.7 pts, 6.6 assists, 2.8 rebs, 1.4 steals, 2.6 tov, .410 fg, .327 3pt, .782 ft

Felton, in general, is the superior player — but he’s not that much better, as the stats indicate.

Duhon just agreed to a deal worth less than 4 mil per year. Why would Felton command anywhere close to twice that amount?

If the Cats offer Felton 5 million a year again he better take it. He’s a home grown guy who is playing in an ideal situation under LB with a team on the rise. Is it worth sacrificing the sweet situation he has now to get another million per year maybe?
