    D-Mo better not be traded!!! He is the missing third star we've been waiting for.

    If D. Mo can play like he ha played the last two games I'll be all in on him. I just want him to consistently rebound. He has struggled to rebound in traffic, but he did a good job of fighting and securing balls these past two games. I was very pleased. The scoring is fine, the defense is solid, now he needs to put it all together. This guy has a very bright future.

    I think sometimes he coasts on the rebounds because he knows Dwight has em...

    i thought i knew bball but this guy has surprised me. i really hope morey does not get rid of him.

    dmo starting and a healthy jones off the bench for the next few years could be pretty devastating.

    Rockets 5-1 since DMo moved back into the starting lineup, and 6-1 overall with him starting and Smith on the team.

    Rockets 1-3 with Smith starting and DMo on bench.

    Morey knows how good DMo is. He's not going anywhere. Very interested to see what he'll command on the market as a free agent.

    lol

    Nice comeback genius. Dmo was sucking and got benched until KG was ejected. Just pointing it out. Apologize for ruining your tirade about how much you love riding Dmo's ball sack.

    I thought it was that you don't understand the game of basketball, but now I'm convinced you're just trolling. Well, it's either one of the two.

    And the 1 loss was a total screwjob by the NBA league office. I won't forget that Chicago game for years.

    what is great with DMO is hes so aware and good at anticipating if the defenders is trying to steal the ball... and as soon as he tries to steal the ball DMO is spining the other side and scoring...just beautiful!

    You never get that with Howard... he doesnt secure the ball properly and almost never anticipate defenders going for steal...

    and that soft touch... just great!

    I'm happy to see him aggressively going after rebounds for a change. Boxing out is good, but you can't always assume a teammate has it.

    I also want to see him be more assertive, I think he is too quick to pass the ball. When he gets an offensive rebound he needs to just go back up with that hook. On the post if they do send a double team, he needs to wait a beat to really suck in that defense. If no double team take it himself.

    In short he needs to be more selfish. He's trying to be a team guy, but aside from Harden he's our best offensive weapon, he needs to act like it.

    You might think that, but thea team probably doesn't. Isn't he like 7th or 8th in FGA per game on this team?
