    Here are DMo's playoff numbers against Golden State.

    Mpg 19.6
    PPG 8.8
    FG% .432
    3pt% .440
    Rpg 5.2

    PER 36 is about 17-10 - not bad for a starting PF who rarely gets the ball.


    Not too bad for a guy that was going to be shut down, probably under utilized to be honest.

    Dmo has proven time and time again that he's not that good.

    He can get as many touches in the post as he wants, he's still a liability defensively & on the boards. That's why we can't afford to play him starter minutes

    He already proved it. Most of last season. And for spurts of this season. If you can't see that, then sorry.

    He may not be that good, BUT he sure as hell better than starting Brewer at PF, of Smith!

    His numbers against GS prove this to be incorrect, per 36 at 17-10 is not bad.

    Damn a per 36, I watched the actual game. When Draymond got serious he basically got any shot he wanted with Dmo guarding him

    He was the same player this season as he was last season. Mediocre. A flash here and there.

    Chill Frosty. Getting Vucevic would have ruled out getting Howard. Nice try though.

    Dmo is a great positional defender. He'll never be a shot blocker but he can be what Chuck Hayes and Battier were in taking charges. Many different ways to protect the paint.

    I'm curious...Can anyone get his numbers when he's played heavy minutes for his entire career? Let's say every time he's played over 32mpg and average the stats.

    Maybe he just doesn't have the stamina for it? No idea why he never gets heavy min.

    he got heavy minutes in many games last year when he averaged just under 30 mins in his best season and still didn't wow you with anything special. he can be a solid player when hes healthy. that's it. nothing more. people thinking he's some double double guy using per 36 is just laughable or that he can just carry a load offensively is just delusional.
