    Must be nice to have something in common with an NBA player.

    I have been calling him a role player all along, he is a super role player a guy that is smart, plays good D, adds a post up dimension - usually is a big plus as a team guy.

    Not sure anyone has ever said he was more than that.

    Being you a low IQ poster, it will be impossible to explain why he is a special player.

    Actually, that's your fantasy world. No one is saying D-Mo is a special player.

    Just like Speights is not a special player. Just like Livingston is not. Clarke is not. Ezeli is not. Heck, even Barnes is not.

    These are not special players. You need non-special players to win. We are lacking in non-special players as much, if not more than, special players.

    It's idiotic at this point to argue against bringing D-Mo back. He meshes well with our star, smart player, hard worker on the court, hard worker in practice, hard worker in the summer, multiple coaches love him. Plus, he's going to cost peanuts.

    I know we're all frustrated, but you should stop lashing out like this.

    Please no, if he cannot play under control even after this many years then there's no hope. Only for a ****ty contract sure..

    Dmo isn't an all star or a super special player. He is a chess piece for any good team. A great coach would love to have a player such as Dmo. Why is everyone hating him? Cause he is having a bad game? Then sit him for a quarter, that is what I would do.

    He could have alt least 5 to 6 assist if Houston could hit a 3 pointer today.

    And once he got out the team collapse.

    The too are one and the same, your starting players are not always STAR players.

    He is a starting stretch 4, who is also a role player.

    It is not that hard to understand, really.

    You do realize that Bogut is the Warriors starting C and is a role player, or Harrison Barnes their starting PF is also one....this is what folks have been saying, people are just butt hurt that Rocket fans like the guy.

    In fairness, the Houston coaching staff doesn't have any idea what the F#$k they are doing. They use beasley completely wrong.

    I agree, but a major problem in Beasley's game is that he is a ball stopper. When he gets the ball, its going either in the hoop or the other way. The only other player you could run an offense through besides Harden on this team is dmo. I would of just taken minutes from dmo and gave them to beasley to play with harden. Then staggered Harden and Dmo the entire game.

    Agreed about Beas. Overall, he's the most dependable 4 we have, especially when you account for talent, range and experience.

    He should have been getting more minutes from the beginning. And, he's not getting the ball in the post like he should. He's a small version of Sheed' in the sense that his turn-around jumper from the post depends on the momentum of his spin, and the space he has to shoot over his defender. We're feeding him near the FT line or all the way out to the three. Beas can hit it from there, but it's not his strength.

    Beas is DEADLY when you give him SPACE to operate. We've seen it.

    If anything, Beas should be the starting 4 on the current team. It doesn't matter with a few games left (if we're lucky), but he's far more talented on the offensive end than any of our bigs. Defensively, he doesn't give you the size, but you can depend on MB for rebounds and contesting shots regularly.

    In hindsight, Morey made a great signing, but JB/MGMT made an epic error by not giving him consistent time greater than 20 minutes each game.
