    svg has said he's not gonna play Thornton as primary backup wing because it will take from S.Johnson development time.

    Why are you always such a biased *******?

    "biased" is not the word you are looking for, unless you mean maybe DD and you comprise a cult or clique of some kind that we can be biased against.

    I like dmo but he's done I think. No way he can't get on the court. He just played 4 games in the Dleague and now is in NYC visiting a back specialist? Wow maybe Morey and company knew somthing we didn't? Just saying.

    You're ass u ming. I don't think Dmo was our savior, I do think it would have been prudent to hang onto him till draft day, and not going for something that was purely to save Les $$$ (don't bring up the pick nonsense, we've given up 14th picks for 2nd rounders which we used to dump salary plenty before). I can't recall the last player that was even offered something past his rookie contract. Carlios Scolandry perhaps?

    Also, I never said you were biased. Sam is an *******, it's common knowledge. Ironically however, by incorrectly categorizing me and what my stance on the situation was, one can only assume you went into this post...biased. ;)

    This is not some new injury. DMo has been ok since the start of February. Van Gundy just sent him to get checked out by a specialist to make sure. He says he's already available to play.

    A healthy D-Mo is extremely skilled, and can be a legitimate low post scoring threat.

    His defense is lacking, though occasionally he can get some blocks.

    The sad thing is that I don't think a consistently healthy D-Mo is realistic. He's gotten better then hurt again. It doesn't seem like he'll ever be able to stay off the injured list for lengthy periods of time let alone season after season.

    just ridiculous how in denial people can be and how they think they know the true condition of this guy. You want to keep trying to state he's healthy when everything says the opposite. What else do you need to see? Him go through another surgery again?
