    Please don't try to kiss him when you present the iPad to him. We'll lose him for sure.

    I think it's all about the money. If the Rockets want to keep DMo they can, but they will have to be willing to pay at least as much as any other team offers. DMo won't be giving the Rockets a home town discount.

    MDA and DMo look like they had a love connection.


    it either has to do with him being restricted or Morey not being present...likely the latter.

    That's where the video and dinner come in.

    When you have the chance to insert Broken Back as your star PF & pay him $11M+/yr, you definitely gotta do it. An opportunity you can't pass up.

    You hit your head or something? I just translated video interview, the only interview DMo gave. Since you don't understanda a word, I did it for you. I have no intention to lie about it, why would I, you definitely have agenda, not me.

    I don't want to lose this guy. I believe in D-Mo. I want him playing heavy minutes with James. I think we would win a ton of games.
