DMo was open many times tonight but the players keep swing the ball looking for the 3ball. It's just the way the system is right now. Hopefully they soon decide to run more post plays like they were at the end of the 4th quarter. Dmo should get as many post up plays as D12 IMO.
Not at all aggressive enough for my liking, and not as aggressive as he has been the prior couple weeks.
He was the focus of our offense after Harden fouled out. He commanded so much attention of the Wolves' defense the other guys (mostly Terry) could get some space to shoot. If not for him, we would have no chance at all because we had zero play maker on the floor.
Don't blame Dmo for this...it's up to the coaches to identify that they want him to be more aggressive and let him know. That's exactly what happened after Harden went out. I'm going to agree that I would like to see him play like that all game though and the coaches should make sure that happens.
I hope you were kidding haha. I don't think DMo is capable of giving 20/10/5 every night. That is an extremely tough thing to do. And by making that claim, you're saying that DMo is at Aldridge or Cousin's level. He will be a great player for us this season, but in no way does he make Dwight dispensable. Only TJones is becoming more and more dispensable with every game.
I will agree that Dmo was a little lazy today on gaining position. I can honestly see harden WANTING to give Dmo the ball now but in order for it to work Dmo needs to WANT the ball and gain and hold his positioning. During his stretch of awesome play he would get the ball closer to the basket and today he was further out or just wasn't in position.
