Dmo is a way better post player than Dwight! I hope Morrey sits down and Talk with Mchale after this game and give Dmo more touches in the post.
D-Mo may have a better post game than Howard, but Howard gets fouled and doubled a LOT more. D-Mo posting should take priority only when the other team is in foul trouble, Howard is just totally flat, or during close scoring situations where Howard's FT's become dicey.
its crazy we had a borderline all star on our bench all this time and never knew it. He's is literally the type of player we dreamed of adding. Dmo coming out of no where like this, is like finding $100 in your pocket lol
To be fair, until Howard got injured and D-Mo found his mojo through trial by fire and stepped up in a big way, he was mostly a scrub. I am glad to be eating crow now with his huge improvement, but lets not pretend he wasn't garbage before this season.
He was a scrub not long ago, but now dude cannot be considered just a filler in any trades. D-Mo has improved like crazy. Considering his young age, small salary, and potential for more upside, he is nearly off limits irt to trades.
D-Mo has really impressed me this year, he's now a low post threat who can hold his own. In seasons past he was a tolerable sufferance on the court at best, who frequently made bone headed mistakes and lacked confidence in his shot. I think he's improved his game more than any player on the team this year and is a big reason we're only at 5 losses right now in spite of all the injuries. Perhaps the injuries have even been a blessing in disguise as its given him more time and confidence to showcase his game. When T-Jones comes back we will have the weapons we need at the 4 to be successful. Still, I would like to see us add another big who can hit FT's and outside shots, but it's not going to happen.
Fouls on Howard hurts us because of his ft pct And double teaming Howard hurts us because he either fumbles it, can't pass out, commits offensive foul, or turns ball over Can y'all bombard rockets and moreys twitter With something like "PnR Howard, post up DMo"
The proverbial light bulb went off, glynch. Donuts turned out to be the poster child for the old "truism" that big men, with an exception here and there (cough - Hakeem!), can take time to develop. Donatas took time, but he finally saw the light. Hallelujah!
