    Didn't cost Dwight, would be surprised if it cost DMo.

    We did better partially because he got injured against us.

    Regardless, we could have had him resign for much much less. Actually kept him at the same salary if we decided not to make him a RFA at all. Imagine that, we could have had Ariza AND Parsons.

    Any news on DMO? I haven't read anything about him getting an offersheet yet.

    With the current market he should get at least 15per even with injury concerns.

    Good we kept him. lets develop him more. The guy has potential that we've already seen before his injury.

    No way in hell DMo gets 20 mill a year.
    If he does he will DESTROY our team

    If DMo is the highest paid player on your team . . . .
    Well . . that would say alot about this org

    Dmo has a mix of post skills and average shooting. At his height that will get him paid. The issue is Morey will need to sacrafice 10+ mill a season to keep him

    I talked to DMo yesterday at Cle. He said he wants to stay in Houston. Patrick Patterson also showed up later and went to his table.

    Cool you saw him, and PP met him for all-time sake. I almost thought you meant you saw him in CLEveland. haha.

    Of course, his statement could mean he wants other teams to give offers that they think the Rox won't match...to increase $$$

    2p might be recruiting him to toronto they need a backup PF(Scola is like 50) and a backup C(Biyombo leaving). And DMo provides exactly that...

    Jon Leuer has landed a four-year deal worth $42 million with the Pistons, sources say

    Thats a good news, I think
    Detroit was a team high on Dmo
