    They don't need to abuse their big men in these preparation games. And they don't really needs wins yet. The important part is teamplay cohesiveness. They're currently working on their strategy and plays.

    Right as we say that, Dmo has a guy sealed and blows the lay up.

    I'm not so sure that playing in this tournament is going to be good for DMo. Sure getting time playing against pretty good competition is nice, but not when you are playing a really stupid style of basketball.

    Is Dmo's finishing or Belgium's fast break more atrocious? It's really hard to tell.

    DMo's finishing is generally good, they just have god awful PG's who don't give their big men the ball in good situations.

    It's amazing how everyone makes a national tragedy out of a missed basket.

    From y'alls comments during the last game, I thought DMo had a terrible outing. The box score showed 19 pts on 60% shooting (which led the team).

    Of course just as I say that, they set up Kleiza in a really nice spot in the post.....of course he's not good enough to do anything so it was wasted, why don't they set up DMo or Valanciunas like that?

    This game has been pretty brutal to watch. Low basketball IQ, sloppy play, and the crowd blowing on vuvuzelas.

    Kleiza got frustrated because he's a terrible player and picked up a technical so DMo's back in.

    Dmo could end up being a better scorer and rebounder than Horry. Lol

    Yeah, after a season of the brilliantly complex Rockets gameplan that we witnessed last year, I can see why you'd be worried that the European national stage might have a detrimental effect on his basketball IQ.
