    he's playing great.

    just hit a three in the flow of the offense followed by stealing the ball at half court and taking it to the hoop for the slam

    I saw this gem on you tube here.

    I personally think this is the year that D-MO breaks out. He will become the answer we have been looking for. I remember when we first drafted him is work ethic and motor what were being questioned, but those have been his strongest suits and I expect them to start paying dividends now. He looks the part more and more every year, he has always talked the talk. Now hopefully he walks the walk.

    Dmo has skill, but he is just so damn off balance and goofy on the court. TBH I think he could be amazing if he could get body control, idk how he makes any sort of jump shots or any moves with how rushed he is.

    Anyone else watching? DMo just had a fantastic move from the top of the key. When that guy plays with confidence, his footwork can be so awesome.

    He is still a young man and body control will come as he ages. He will age really well. He will also add weight as he ages. He will likely be a more slight version of Ardvays Sabonis.

    Wow! I can't believe I spelled his name without looking it up.

    I'm not surprised that coach doesn't use him much as a post-up option. Can't understand his strategy at all.

    "NotChandlerParsons" means "unintentional master of deception" in Lithuanian.
