Yeah, I have been discussing the possibility of trading him on Clutchfans. I think you are right though, he is becoming untouchable to an extent. If you can get a star player in return. Then ship him off, but he looks like he might be becoming one.
Besides developing a mid range jumper I want to see DMo focus on his touch finishing around the basket. His one handed push shot needs to become automatic. His moves are becoming elite. If his finishing improves he will become unstoppable offensively in the post. I don't doubt DMo works hard so I expect he will improve in these areas over the next few seasons.
Defense - check Post up moves - check Passing - check The only thing he needs to improve on is to get better at drawing fouls ( get their bigs in foul trouble) and FT percentage.
omg the potential! that passing! can anyone make a gif out of that pass to beverly then back to dmo then dmo scores around 3:45 in the 3rd?
love demo but he doesn't seal position right. he has to back that ass up. he is too high when he backs down. lex needs to pay barkley whatever money and have charles show him how to do it right. once demo does that he will truly be unbeetabol. 30 years from now your sons will be telling their kids how they watched dmo go into woods.
IMO he still needs to get stronger. He still gets pushed around a bit. Most amazing thing to me about DMO is his dribbling for a center. At th 1:55 mark of the knicks highlights when he drives, cups the ball and does not travel to get the layup and the foul is impressive.
Being extremely skinny/weak and playing on perimeter early on in his junior days probably influenced him developing some perimeter player skills.
It was 17 points not rebounds. Morey would be the dumbest GM in the world to trade Dmo right now. Other teams notice his abilities and size and would love to cash in...
I start to think we need not trade anyone, but get shooting coach! FT- for bigs, 3s for Ariza and even DMo(he was hell of a shooter, when was skinny- must adjust shooting reflex now thou), and with increased % we would hell of team
He was close once. <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/egZc9fcl1Ak" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
