[Stein] Rockets Latest DMo offer "multiyear starts at a fully guaranteed $7m in Yr 1"

Dude he blocks shots!!! Advanced stats are for fatties who never played the game like Morey .

 

This is very important - good positional defense is better than someone that can jump through the roof - DMo is our bigs version of Shane Battier.

Used to be. We have very little idea what he is NOW. He had a very rough recovery season and hasn't played for 7 months after that. Since the time DMo was big version of Battier, he went on 10 months surgery/rehab without basketball period, then super rough 5 months of playing bad, rehabing some more, playing better/ok in glimpses then 7 months without basketball and counting. He's not going to be the same he was 2 years ago, because for 2 years he was through so much with so little basketball experience. One thing for sure, he's not going to return better than before, he's unlikely returning same as pre injury, most likely he's coming back worse. Only question how much worse. And how much longer can his back hold.

In before "Dekker made DMo obsolete" thread

 

He also had a good game every other month, that really boosted his value to where he got a league minimum

That's actually not true, it's just that the lowest that showed up on the page was 50%, I pointed out a 20 million dollar a year PF on the roster that was over 70% at the rim.

The point is that DMo is better than both Nene and Ryan Anderson when it comes to defense at the rim even if we don't look at what the numbers say.

 

Regardless of stats, where is Dmo?
I would think he would have signed the day that the new offer was made.
He's really showing himself to be both greedy and foolish at the same time.
The offseason should have already provided proof to him and his agent that he is not in demand in the NBA
He's not endearing himself to the fans (at least not THIS one)

 

Foolish maybe, but greedy idk. He wants to get paid what he thinks he's worth. That's not greedy. If you felt like you should be paid x amount of money to perform job x would you go perform it for a lesser value if you didn't have to?

 

Expect DMo to wait until 11/23 to reach agreement. The reason to wait is if one of our bigs gets a major injury, DMo will have leverage and get paid more.

 

Why were else is he going to play? He is a Rocket whether he likes it or not. He needs time play himself into shape before the transferred line.

 

Who said it was a new offer?

This reads like the Rockets are "LEAKING" the offer as a PR stunt.

But but but... he boxes out really good.

 

Am I incorrect that the Rockets upped the ante and threw more money on the table?
Is that not a new and different offer than what they had originally been riding for so long?

 

You'll note that I replied to someone else talking about a non-DMo issue. I would think that you'd appreciate me keeping my TJones fantasy comments in this thread rather than creating a new thread in the Dish about his fantasy basketball competence.

Spare me your condescension. Thanks.

 

I will note nothing. Evidence is right here, good sir! You doth not get spared for no condescension! You doth receive extra condescension, good sir! No one know nothing of your fantasy, good sir! Keepth your replies within the confines of good sir-dom! Quoteth your challenger or face a good chewing, dear sire!

 

Dmo is just peed that Ryno is making 20 million and the Rockets can't offer him a lot more. I think he feels under valued from the Rockets organization, especially when they tried to trade him and it got voided.

 

I don't think I've ever had a better reply in my entire history of replying. That was solid.

 

Nice editing skills - almost like it's your job! Multiple replies too, nice way to stay on topic in this thread. That's very important, you know!

 

Season is now 10% over and honestly I have no idea what Dmo is doing anymore.

Better deals aren't coming. He is doing nothing for himself by holding out.

Sign the non-guaranteed deal already.
