time to bump this thread ....times such as these make some of the crazy looking theories from my article to seem more plausible... btw did you see how DMo took AD to the school couple of times...I didnt watched 4th quarter though to see if he got more postup opportunities...
Chandler parsons got the max... that lowered the bar...Kawhi Leonard -12/6 guy- is also asking for Max....
this was just to get rid of nitpicking readers, nazzi gramarians and others not worth access to higher insights and elightement.... i am a leader not the follower and i make my own rules in this world...i my own man...:grin: i remember reading in a book of an anecdote a father was having with his son... Once his son asked him, 'Dady why dont we leave our flat always to be a mess and untidy with all the things scatered all over the floor? 'Why would we do that, son?' he asked 'Because', said the kid, 'It would be a sign that we always have more important things to do!'
Im I only think that Beard & DMo are best duo on the team? They were winning when half were injured.. DMo set a pick, Harden give pass in post,.. so simple so effective it was..
Kawhi Leonard was the NBA Finals MVP. LOL. He's a proven playoff closer and deserves every penny he gets cuz he's proven it when the cards were on the table.
I don't think D-mo is a budding superstar like some, but I think he has much more to contribute than others think he does. Our half court sets are absolutely abysmal. D-mo in the post almost always results in a good shot. He won't always make it of course, but he usually gets a good shot. I could tolerate us ignoring his post game if our offense is clicking, but we usually end up taking contested shots or making a bad pass that leads to a fast break instead. Beverly is the worst offender. D-mo will have solid post position, and Beverly will completely ignore him. D-mo should get 10-15 post touches every night, I find it inexcusable that he doesn't given the offensive incompetence of everybody except Harden.
exactly, rockets can play through DMo. Not saying Rockets should play through him every night, but if smaller guys are struggling to shoot or make plays, just go in the post. Yes, not every DMo shot will fall, but he can pretty much take good post look on every possession.
what's unique about d-mo on this rockets team is how quickly he makes his decisions, to pass, or post up. with Dwight, Smith....any other rockets big, the ball, and the office just dies when they have it in the post. with dmo, the ball, and the offense keeps moving until someone has an open look. <iframe width="853" height="480" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/MWK8Mu-ka2A" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> that move at the 40 second mark...
I like kawhi a lot...hes 'proven' with spurs system...and hes 'proven' in PO...but hes not proven in RS... i doubt he can be 1st/2nd option on a team carrying a team during 82 games and providing scoring nights in nights out......it will be a huge gamble if team others than spurs give him MAX....huge huge gamble
Dwight turn it over 33% of the times in the post. I just made that up :grin: But you get the point. He has to think before he does anything.
great time to rearead this article....I simply refuse to believe McHale is this inept coach and cant see what almost every clutchfan sees Quote: Originally Posted by BrieflySpeaking View Post they should go to DMO Quote: Originally Posted by Dankush View Post GO TO DMO Quote: Originally Posted by DaDakota View Post POST UP DMO !!!!

Kawhi was the NBA FINALS MVP, he's a proven closer period. System whatever, he was the NBA Finals MVP and the kid deserves the max.
a year before Kawhi become MVP ,were it not for a great choke job by Kawhi in the last minute of the game 6 of finals, spurs would heve been champions and MVP would be Green... but can not expect from Green to carry a franchise....and you not pay green max regardles of what he did in the finals.... perhaps kawhi is clutch but hes only averaging 12/6 in RS... you simply not pay someone 20 milions for 12/6 production.... nba season is not consisting only of playoffs .... playing well through 82 games is more admirable and rare skill...hes also being constantly injured... you do not pay 12/6 injury prone guy max...Kawhi is not proven regular season franchise cornerstone guy....
He's very good, though I'm not sure "elite." If you put him on a team with fewer options and he is forced to face double teams and different looks, I'm not sure that he looks the same, but then again I'm not sure that he doesn't succeed, given time under that scenario, with flying colors. Motiejunas was a highly touted prospect, and it could simply be that he's a late bloomer.
why not feed DMO whole night long in the post against Cavs nonexistent backcourt and instead trying to beat them in 3pts shooting when our 3pt shooters are 1st class brickmasters? Does McHale really dont know DMO is good or?
