He has a rebound rating comparable to Harden and Ariza, yet he plays C and PF. He is Bargnani level on the boards.
Please, I'd love it if you were right and if X was half as good as you pretend he is. He's not though. And neither are any of your picks, ever. If the Rockets had their way, X = the Pistons first round pick. They didn't get their way, you and Stan got yours. Lovely stuff. Should I post the gif of you laughing and waving DMo's picture around the day the Rockets got screwed?
You can post whatever you want, I am right about DMo he is a good role player that adds a dimension that this team is missing, a guy who sets good screens, plays good positional defense and is unselfish. And the Rockets didn't get SCREWED they let DMO go as a Lux tax saving move - if the ROX care more about winning they keep their better players and pay them instead of flipping them for a slightly worse cheaper option. I like guys who play team ball - that is how you win, look at GS, SA for current examples. DD
He plays less than 20 minutes...that is pretty good production when extrapolated out to starters minutes. DD
You just described a role player for a mediocre team. He would be on the Pelicans and they would still have a similar record this year. He is good enough to help you win a quarter but not good enough to win over several games.
He is a good COMPLIMENTARY piece, a Shane Battier type, but in a different manner. Every team needs GOOD complimentary players - that is how you build championship teams you surround the stars with players like DMo. DD
You are probably right about the perfect role player starting PF would be a hybrid of Beasley with some of Moti's skillset. A little D would be fine as well.
Dmo played a trash second half . The Jazz adjusted to the fact he was destroying Rudy and played booker . Bookers speed ate Dmo alive at this point in his recover . I'm not sure he's ready to play back to backs yet . He looked very sluggish and off balance ..... Indicating his core strength wasn't there . Hopefully it's not a set back and he can pick back up , becuase he was on a nice role of straight good minutes until the second half tonight .
You need him to be better than a good complimentary piece for what he's gonna want to get paid this summer.
Only if you have your multiple foundational pieces in place. If you are searching for those, like we will be doing, the value of those complimentary pieces will always be marginalized.
We have Harden, we can build around him, we don't need to chase every FLAWED cast off like Howard that is out there and available. Let's build the team - and find some folks that might break out - look at Harden he was not a star when we got him......he became one with the opportunity, that is what we should be chasing guys with potential to break out if they get more of an op.

Who are you again? I'll bite though, if rudimentary reasoning is lost on you, sure. Make it somewhat believable and have it coincide with my join date next time---your desperate hyperbole might not sound as bad.
