    You guys are right that he's not going to be able to grab too many offensive rebounds being a stretch 4 but he looked good tonight. Thanks to the op for posting this-it's nice to see it on a good clear screen instead of a choppy stream with a barrage of pop-up ads.

    He should have some post up opportunities esp when they run half court sets

    That behind the back pass really really impressed me. I like his game.

    I didn't watch the game, but I'm more excited to see highlights of Aaron Brooks' homecoming

    Yep, instead of the "Harden takes the ball down, screen nothing, screen nothing, step back and take contested jumper" offense that seems to be our gameplan for halfcourt a lot of the time ... D-Mo would seem to be our best scoring option in those situations. Hopefully as his conditioning gets better and McHale trusts him more and more that will become a major part of our clutch time offense. Dude has no problem scoring with his back to the basket that's for sure.

    Motiejunas seems to have the complete offensive package. Cannot remember the last time I saw a legit 7 footer drive the basketball. That behind the back pass sequence is special. Name me another 7 footer that can do that. Surely not the "Son of Patter".

    Give this guy the playing time the rest of the year combined with an off-season of strength training, weight gain and defensive coaching.

    We haven't even seen them go heavily to him in the post. Save that for the playoffs.

    I'd like to see them post up DMo. Really take advantage of his size and skill set.

    Same here. It is easy to take it for granted, but a running hook with your off-hand is very impressive.

    McHale's gonna get his post game ready for the playoffs, no worries.

    Just a quick note, sorry I'm not trying to take away from this thread.

    I just wish somebody would have told me this earlier in the year. If you can stand watching the games about 5 minutes after each quarter is finished you can download the game quarter by quarter from the link below in high quality video and you don't have to deal with all of the spam that comes from streaming.

    I have downloaded every game from here this year except for the few I went to and about 10 games I streamed at the beginning of the year.

    D-Mo is creeping up on Chandler Parsons as the 2nd most untouchable Rockets player (after Harden).

    I agree. However I think he'll get ready in practice. I don't think we'll see it much in the regular season. That way it'll be a surprise for the playoffs.
