    You shouldn't be defending DMo every time just because you're a Lithuanian, same as him. He played pretty horribly yesterday.

    Dmo was falling down last night not because he was too amped up but rather he just doesn't have his game legs back yet.

    This is normal and honestly I think it should only take 1 more game till this is fixed assuming he can get 15 min against the Nets.

    Every year I played ball in highschool there would be almost a 2 month period from when my AAU season ended and when we would start up for school ball. We wouod scrimmage in that time but still it would take 1-2 games to get my legs back and I'm not even 6 ft let alone 7ft.

    His defense was pretty solid he rotated very well and was in position for rebounds even if he didn't get them.

    It was comical watching him fall all over the court, it happened almost every Time he tried to make an explosive move. Lol

    he was terible, but his decisions wasn't. First shot missed layup(TJ fixed)- will make any player 9 times/10 when in game shape.; Second shot fast break crazy layup- any player shouldn't try that without stop and fake.; thrid one post up- little short; forth- rushed 3' ;

    first TO try post agains RG; second smh dont remember.

    still on D Kings run fast break and DMo was first to stop the atack;

    by the way he still end with +- +3

    At the end of the day I have wake up 3AM to watch the game(Rox or Raps or gsw(its not fare what SC doing)) so will have my opinion on sertain players :)

    But, that's just DMo being DMo. He's always like that. It doesn't take much to knock DMo off his feet.

    There's NO need whatsoever to defend OR attack him. He is a player coming off a serious surgery and only played 6 minutes. Just be patient and give the man a lot of time to come back.
    If you were expecting him to step his foot back on the court and start playing like a star you were deluded. That's all.
    Let's see how he plays in January and then start judging him. So far even him playing is great for me.

    Great to see DMo back. Even though he fell a number of times and didn't do anything spectacular, the stage of that game where we were leading comfortably and with DMo back on the court, really started to feel like our season is finally coming together.
    Had a laugh, probably more so at the commentators. But glad he's back!

    Agree. It's probably going to take him 20-30 games to get his rhythm and flow back with some semblance of consistency. He's missed almost 3/4s of a year with no 5-5 live basketball and what happened to him last night was to be expected. But I was glad to finally see a real frontline rotation and happy as hell to see DMO out there on the court.

    the half life for HGH is less than 12 hours, so that wouldn't be necessary haha
