    D-Mo has a lot of potential and going up against DH12 in practice everyday
    would just be preparing him even more to be the star we are looking for.
    DH12 is the most physical big in the league and if I have a concern about
    D-Mo it would be taking the banging night in night out. He is still slight but
    will fill out. We have a lot of scores and versatility so we need to have a pass first point guard. Machado did pretty good job of running the team after he settled down. He is still is a rookie though and made plenty of rookie mistakes today. With that said we still need to be looking for a vet pg.

    Yeah, since his contract apparently prevents him from being traded.

    all time I was watching, I was sad that... THAT'S OUR WHOLE TEAM. no vets is so hard to watch, but then again, OKC sucked for so long til they mattered. but still, that's our team if we didn't get Howard or Lin. pretty sad.

    we should waive Courtney Fortson tonight. seriously, send him back to LA please. HE JUST SUCKS SO BAD. it's so hard to watch Lil Wayne, aka Fortson.

    DMo can't be traded for 30 days, so, no matter what happens in Dwightmare to Houston, he is staying. That being said, DMo next to Dwight? Hellz to the yeeah!

    True, but for how long? This may drag out a while, since Orlando may want to see these guys play a few games..

    One good summer league game, that's it. D Mo is frail. Who knows how he would fair in an 82 game season against monsters like K Love, LBJ, etc.

    Like Chris Weber said, show me you can do that consistently against top level talent.

    So far I like D Mos game though.

    Not overrating just stating D-Mo needs a vet to work through/Earn his time for a year or two before being handed the title Franchise Player. If you have that type of potential On a rookie contract that you can control for 4 years, why resign DH12 for 5 at 20+ million per season. Let him come here and be a stop gap while your young stud gets better & stronger. While you find your pg and shooting guard of the future. They are playing the game smart and with the new CBA were teams control players for 7 years I think the Rockets have mapped out there strategy. We will see.
