    I loved the way DMo took over in the 4th on both ends of the floor.

    Appreciate it Clutch! And I'll do my best to provide highlight reels for the rest of the D-League season (especially when Motiejunas and Jones play).

    How did they lose such a HUGE lead?

    He looked like McHale at the 45 seconds mark.

    Thanks!

    Really want the Rockets to give D-Mo a shot. I think his game is NBA ready. His body obviously is not, but given how our other PFs have performed you might as well give him a look.

    Donuts is still developing, this season and this summer and the summer league DMO, ROyce and TJones Develope and they could become very valuable for us in future...

    1. Why is he dancing around near the basket before throwing up shots? Are bigs allowed to do this instead of spotting up for jumpers to space the floor for Harden? It is peculiar and disgusting and clogs up the lane for Harden. Needs to quit with these strange Euro moves and play fundamental basketball and stick to making 3s.

    2. He doesn't seem to have very sure hands. Sometimes he would get hands on a rebound but has it pop loose after getting bumped.

    He has the moves, just needs a stronger, much stronger base. He is bouncing off people.

    Kinda crazy how the guy literally doesn't leave his feet for hook shots. And it has a super low release. A guy 6'5" probably releases a hook shot where he does. He does make up for it with a reallly quick release though.

    Appreciate it!

    Thanks for all the responses though everyone. Will definitely continue to make highlight reels for the Vipers.

    He'd get called for traveling on some of those.

    Repped for crabdribbles!

    Good to see DMo going to work. Defensively, he may struggle a bit in the NBA, but he shows good effort.

    Offensively, he's already our best frontcourt player. He just has great instincts around the basket and can put it in from all sorts of unlikely positions with both hands.

    Jones and D-Mo are both upgrades over the PF's we have now. Morris is a small forward and Patterson, well you know...
