The problem with Larry Hughes is that he visibly loafs on the bench when he
feels he is not getting enough playing time. This kid wants to start, bad.
Playing behind Iverson, that's a serious problem. I think the fact that
he's playing so well with Iverson out speaks to this point. He's a great
talent, but i wouldn't touch him unless I needed a starting SG. Pierce or
Hughes? Now that's an interesting topic.
