People fail to realize that Luis was not "big" guy but he was very effective in the post b/c he knew how to throw his weight around. DMO does not have to look like the Old Spice guy, he just needs to build up his core strength and base and he'll be fine. Looking forward to see him improve!

Not much cause it's just the start of preparation. They started playing on court. DMo pick&roll 2+1. [youtube]UayNwBxME1c[/youtube]
lol I feel like there's a good chance that either DMO or Jones will be a starting calibre player for us next season. I'm not too worried about the PF spot for some reason.
Reminds me of that one scene from Dragonball Z, where Piccolo fused with Nail and he's like "YES YES YES! I FEEL GREAT!"
D-Mo has potential, no doubt. I hope everything works out for him, cuz so many in this league has potential but do not get a chance to reach it. Go get it D-Mo!

You'd think he would get plenty of NBA experience starting next to Howard. He can float to the wings on offense for wide open jumpers and much of his suspect defense will be erased. Unless TJones comes out with a 20 footer like 2Pat, its his spot to lose. But Dirk? 25, 000 point Dirk? No.
LIN, Harden, Parsons, Jones, Howard 2nd unit: Beverly, Mr X, Garcia, DMO, Asik. Second unit will be as good as our starting lineup last season. And I am rooting for DMO to be in the second unit, because he's get offensive opportunities, while in the starting lineup he'd only get to defend muscular PFs and no offensive looks. Second unit will be better place to enable PF potential.
Just looked it up, Lithuania will play 12 "friendly matches" beginning August 5: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithuania_national_basketball_team_at_Eurobasket_2013 ...before EuroBasket 2013, which starts September 4, where they will play 5 games before the tournament elimination games: http://www.eurobasket2013.org/en/cid_8Xfg3jZMG1QuJnp6pnUWd3.pageID_EI-YS3FvJ0gM7vvzpX-R43.compID_qMRZdYCZI6EoANOrUf9le2.season_2013.html
