    don't look now but if dmo played around 60 minutes a game, he would average 40+ points.
    my new stat i have designed tells me this. it's not flawed at all. =)

    I said that last year. He's ready. Move Morris back down to the 3 to get him some time.

    Big man can shoot, have some fancy footwork, and destroying the D-League. Yea I think he needs his chance.

    he could be the low post presence we've been looking for in situations when the pace drops and teams are shutting down the outlets

    6 minutes - 4 fouls.

    Offensively he's ready, defensively long way to go.

    then in the halfcourt he can pop out for a corner 3 if the defense leaves a soft spot

    Nah, defensively and rebounding wise he would still hurt us. We don't really lack offense.

    I agree we can just slide Morris back to his natural position at small foward. Dmo can def help us he's the one guy on our team who can post up and get buckets. I really like his game and it looks like he's put on weight I was at the game he looks noticably bigger. The one thing he needs to wrk on is his fouling 4 in 5 min is just crazy. Hopefully we can find away to get him in the rotation I would really like to see him get more than garbage time.

    Definitely! Give him a chance to really foul out with 8 minutes!!

    Good thinking.

    I like him, too. But we were up by 30pts when he came in, while PPat fielded a double double.

    And besides, if we give Dmo all the PT, as soon as he has a bad game, the Terrence Jones fans will start this same thread.

    just silly

    Everything is fine. There's a logjam, and he is definitely being groomed. McHale knows how to groom PFs.

    Morris is not a SF, he would be horrible defensively there.

    I like DMO and I agree he should get more playing time, but what about James Anderson? The few times we've seen him play, he is definitely capable of shooting the three AND making plays for his teammates. Sitting him on his ass all day is ridiculous.

    Oh and DMO had 4 fouls I think? So yeah, should definitely work on that..

    I think he can rebound at a similar rate as Morris so I don't think we would be hurt all that much if at all.

    The guy has serious skills, just needs a little beef on his bones to go with 'em.
