he's in Houston.

 

DMo drawing comparisons to Kevin Durant and Hakeem. The comicality is never-ending.

 

Yep. Having dinner with D'Antoni tonight. Time to hear the pitch.

 

Doesn't help that your name is Snow.

 

Edit: Was going to say, stop taking pictures while driving. But looks like he is the passenger seat, based on the wiper pattern, unless he using an extended right hand from the driver's seat.

 

This is not about the players being comparable it is about the situations being similar.

I hate having to explain context to the uneducated.

Please sign with us."

How does DD find all his favorites?

They must be Euros

 

This isn't about analogies, it's really more about things in relation to each other having some commonalities.

DD

 

Durant and Hakeem clearly elite.

We wouldn't take them out to dinner, we'd just give them the max.

 

Hey Donatas...we think you have peaked in value and are worse than a player of Henry Ellenson's caliber, and didn't really want you around anymore....so we got rid of you. Unfortunately that didn't work.

Now we have a coach nobody wanted except the guy who signshould the checks. And it looks like we have few better options, and really neither do you.But if we find one obviously we will go for it.

Hope that clears the air!

Unless someone offers a first round pick again."

Clutch just posted a longer version of this story

 

Everything on social media points to Donatas loving Houston. I think he stays on a 1+1

 

Saw DMO at Uchi last night. My dad yelled at him "are we gonna have a good season" and he said "i hope so"


gotta feel hes coming back if hes kicking it here, right now.

 

Glad the org is wanting to keep DMo, he is a nice role player.

Let's hope lightning strikes twice and we get another Horry like story.

DD

 

Dmo gonna get a $50 million deal

 

If that is the market rate, you pay it.

DD

 

oh and i forgot to mention he was driving a mercedes, which the valet dude remarked "hey you finally got a car that fits you" (dmo being a large uchi fan apparently) .. so perhaps its a brand new car meaning he is anticipating a signed deal fairly quickly.

 

I agree
