The Orlando Magic addressed their need for a long-term backup point guard yesterday when they reached an agreement to sign Chris Duhon to a four-year deal. Let's see what the blogosphere has to say about it:

• Chris Duhon agrees to terms with the Magic - Ball Don't Lie

  Kelly Dwyer of Ball Don't Lie calls the Duhon signing "a good acquisition." He explains:

  But he's also a backup point guard, and often has the ability to work as one of this league's best in that particular realm. He's Chris Duhon, he's below average, and he'll be working for below the league average in terms of pay. Such a deal.

  Dwyer, a Bulls fan who followed Duhon closely during his years with Chicago, cautions Magic fans to prepare themselves "for him to get all Chris Duhon-y on you, in an instant."
