    But is he better than Terrance Jones now? That's the question.

    Anotherrrrrr DMo thread? They seriously pop up once a year. Why can’t folks who start these threads go away forever.

    If D-MO had a working spine, he would've fired BJ Armstrong and found a new agent long before BJ ruined his shot at keeping an NBA career.

    He had a working spine Morey ****ed him big time.

    Morey lied about his back, then only matched the LEAST amount on the matched contract - the league got sued and had to pay Dmo money as a settlement.

    This could have gone much smoother and he would have been a productive player in Houston for years.....but BJ ****ed up the contract, and Morey bent them over and stuck it all the way in.....

    IMHO - it was pretty poor of Morey's part, but worse of the agents.

    Sengun is what we hoped DMo would be. Sengun can box out AND rebound. DMo could only box out.

    DMo was better than Sengun, he was faster, taller, and could shoot the 3pt shot and pass and was a great positional defender - Sengun hopes to BECOME as good as DMo some day, but he isn't there yet.

    I have a similar analysis. One of the first topics where I saw Morey prefered to be right over the sake of the team. He really had it out for Dmo, and he could have helped a lot.
