[2016-2017] Donatas Motiejunas as a New Orleans Pelican

He also said he may come back here some day. So much for that crippling bad rep we have.

 

Bunch of weirdos camping this thread out and defending their champion dmo till the death

 

Dirty business.

 

Time and poor decisions help one get a better perspective.

So still hope for your posts to get better eh?

How is this even 43 pages long?

 

Anything coming from his agent could be a scam. If I were DMO, I would be very very leery about those words.

 

Is he still with BJ?
Man, why is he still listening to his agent after all of these? I just feel bad for this dude at this point. DMO, get a new agent, seriously.

 

Dmo's role won't change,because nobody wants him LOL. He is the "Brewer" of his team, he's being used as a stopgap in the C or PF position just so the team has a use for him. I mean just look at his performance, 5 pts 3 rebs in 16 mins on 54% FG and 28% 3...that's Brewer level numbers. At this point only die hard DMo fans are still standing up for him.

 

@jopat

WE SAW.

 

How would you rate my sig on a scale of 1-10 clubber?

 

Funny both Ex Rocket hopefuls Asik and DMo are not featured much in their plans.....

They were both starters once upon a time.

and of course the tale of the Jones

 

How many box outs last night?

His most meaningful play was when he dropped Harden to the floor and left a load of butt sweat

 

Hardly even noticed DMo was out there.

 

Felt bad for him out there last night. The body language on that team was miserable at the end and he was out there being a consummate professional.

 

It's like this every game. It's hard to explain how someone can disappear so much, when someone like Dekker and Harrell are impossible not to see, with all their hustle and energy.

I keep saying this from watching him: DMo is bringing absolutely no energy onto the court. No hustle plays. No running the break. No pump-fakes on 3s and attacking. No attacking at all. No crashing the boards. He's just content on standing on the perimeter and giving those YMCA picks around the arc that teammates don't even really want or ask for, and swinging the ball.

I mean there is nothing inherently wrong with any of that, except it is never-ending. That's all he does now. But it's coach, team, role and teammates problem just like Lin.

I can't help but think he's not 100% enough to play balls out like Dekker and Harrell, or he's disinterested in role.

 

his bread and butter are postups and hes really good at it...its mind boggling no team hes ever been on used him that way, perhaps its the way modern nba is...

 

@DaDakota and @Bobbythegreat haven't commented on last night's game.

 

Just like Chuck Hayes before him, no one will appreciates DMO's skill set like the Rockets.
