    What I hated was that when Mchale was here every big strictly had to be a post up guy
    That was the stupidest ****
    Knowing dmo and t jones to a lesser extent could create off the dribble for themselves and others

    Another double double. 24 points & 13 boards. Hopefully he'll use this opportunity playing against these Chinese scrubs to get back into that 2014-15 shape. CBA season ends in February/March so he should be available after the All-Star break if some NBA team wants to take a flyer on him.

    Wow, ****. I did not realize those Chinese guys were riding him like that. It says DMo played 44.5 minutes in that game. Hopefully he doesn't get re-injured.

    So, after watching some Chinese league games, I can say that the best Chinese team would be a bottom feeder in the Euroleague. They're so bad. They sign foreigners (Scola, Brandon Jennings, TJones, DMo etc.) and surround them with a bunch of local scrubs who play heroball and make some of the stupidest plays ever...

    I think some good NBA teams will have an interest in DMo (for a vet minimum) after the all-star break. He's playing better and better every day. It's not a big surprise since he's averaging 40 minutes a game, so he's getting in game shape quite quickly.

    Here are some flashier highlights from his recent two games:

    Love Scola. He might not be in his prime anymore, but he's such a savvy team-first player, always makes the right play. Would love it if Morey signed him and Luis retired as a Rocket.

    I doubt that the players are bad but the teams are structured badly and coaching and everything team strategy wise does not seem to be up standard.

    They actually would profit from playing games against European competition.
