I've seen enough. The Offense needs to run through Dmo once he returns.

    Playing inside out may be the only hope for this team this season.

    I don't know about running it through D-mo, but this offense is embarrassing. We literally run no plays, we just stand around the perimeter and jack up contested 3's.

    Hell, at least we ran some pick and rolls last year. I've played in pickup games with more structure.

    I was about to post something similar. I respect Dmo and he is missed but now we are contemplating the team needs to play through Dmo with two so called "stars" on the team. Good Lord. It's sad.

    Without Dmo, the Rockets would've been a 7th seed at best last season. Dude carried that PF/C load for a long time.

    i agree.
    he seems to have absorbed dream's tutelage way better than howard has.
    i don't know about running the offense through him, but he was vital to regular season success last year.
    they need him back.

    McHale lost his job because dmo was injured.

    If dmo played the first 11 games, completely different story

    We'll be out of the playoff race once D-Mo returns.

    It's not just needing Dmo, the pieces don't fit. Too many poor perimeter defenders and poor shooters. Unfortunately the Rockets are hard capped but this roster needs an overhaul.

    When your only hope for your team is to build the team around Dmo and KJ for now and future,

    you know you can put a fork on it.

    Hi, welcome back D-Mo. You are now the center of the offense. No pressure. Hope your back is okay, and that you are ready to be picked out the freezer and thrown onto the frying pan.

    DMo will probably come back around Christmas if we're lucky, and even then he'll probably be on like a 15 min restriction, minimizing his impact.
