Would be nice to have Dmo when Harden has to go to bench to rest and/or foul trouble. Even Tyler Ennis can't mess this up can he?
Yep. Shocked he still is holding out. Just sign the one year deal, bet on yourself and then leave next year if your back holds up
As such, the price Morey will have to pay is only getting higher day by day. If you're DMo, after watching what the Rockets aren't getting from Anderson for 20 mil a year, why settle for 4.4 mil? How much longer are the Rockets going to be willing to hurt their team just to save a few bucks? I'd hope not much longer....but then again I'd have thought Morey would have caved by now already. He'll have to answer to Les if this season is a disaster.
lol no. its comical for you to even think the rockets believe Dmo is some answer to their problems. That's just plain hilarious and delusional. Oh yes Dmo is just sitting at home thinking oh this is all great for me. Please he's losing money by the day. In no way does this make his price higher. That absolutely makes no sense. So sad with all that is happening you Dmo homers are still in denial
It's not surprising that someone who long thought that Terrence Jones was the next great PF would fail at player evaluation. If you can't see that DMo would help add quality depth to the Rockets front court, an area that absolutely needs it, well then that kind of says you should exclude yourself from the conversation and let the big kids talk.
you try and use the same exact post for every single person that has an objective view on Dmo's situation. Must have it on copy and paste. In which case has absolutely zero worth while also trying to make yourself like some tough guy behind a computer. I guess If that's what you need to make yourself raise your self esteem. It's one thing to say he adds depth but another to believe he's this savior that someone needs to break the bank for when no one in the world has even tried anything close to what the Dmo homers thought he would. From day 1 you've been off on Dmo's situation and it still continues into the 2016 season when he is currently not playing.
LOL "objective view" I guess is the new way of saying "foolish view". If you were paying attention, which I doubt, you'd know that I never suggested that DMo would be a "savior", I suggested that he is very much needed depth on a flawed team. It's just hard to take you seriously when you've been proven wrong time and time again on the subject but you keep sticking to your guns. Also, no one is talking about "breaking the bank", that's what Morey did for Ryan Anderson. 8 mil a year is going to be the new MLE, paying valuable depth at or slightly over the new MLE isn't "breaking the bank". He's not bargain basement garbage like your boy Jones is. Anyway at this point I should probably just put you on ignore because if you haven't learned your lesson now, you likely won't ever.
your DMO post for the past year and half says it all. Says the guy who believes the GSW wouldn't make the playoffs and turned right around to break the best regular season record of all time. Yeah you have tons of credibility around here. NOT
Morey's not budging because NO team values him at higher than 4.4 million. He practically just got done failing a physical. He's only harming himself. If he wants to make more money he has to play and--sorry, but he's a RFA--he has to play for us. If Morey wanted to be a jerk he could say the price is only getting lower. I expect he's looking for a way to make it work for D-Mo, here or elsewhere, but holding out doesn't give D-Mo the upper hand. He is not valued by teams at the price he's demanding. He has one way to get them to value him: PLAY BALL. He is still restricted. He can only get his value up by playing in the NBA and he can only play in the NBA here. He can sit out or do Europe all year if he wants. He still has to come back and prove his value with us unless our front office finds a trade they like. The front office has all the negotiating power here and D-Mo/B.J. have none. They're going to have to budge unless he's planning on retiring. The only question is how much money is D-Mo going to lose before they cave. *Nothing I've said in any thread about D-Mo comes from any knowledge I have from knowing DM. It's just common sense.
If D-Mo has ANY confidence in his abilities why would he want a multi-year deal at his current, all-time low, value? If he's worth more, he can take the deal and prove it on the court. At the end of the season he'll be an unrestricted free agent and can reap all the benefits. And I'm sure the Rockets, in that case, will fight hard to keep him. Why on earth would he be seeking a multi-year deal when his value is in such doubt? The only reason I can figure is that he doesn't believe in his ability to make himself more valuable than he presently is over the course of a season, that he sees this as likely being his last contract. And if he doesn't believe he can prove his worth over the course of the season why should our front office give him a raise?
