    DMo plays so small. Not surprised, because on the Lithuanian national team, his coach couldn't trust him either.'

    At least he doesn't talk tough anymore.

    Keep him if he resigns for the vet minimum or whatever. Let him work on his game another year or two if he doesn't get any better than trade him. I will trust the coaches if they still think he can turn into a decent rotation player some how

    Now if we could actually get a late first or a top second I would not be upset if we traded him.

    Until we can get another big man I guess he still has a bit of use until we can get another big guy. Papa and Black will start eating his minutes as they should.

    Too bad we can't send him to Europe for another couple of years for development to see if he can get it.

    He has already gone into the woods and he has already chased after Dwight every day.

    :p

    Black is two years removed from beasting.... Now he is one dimensional and not rebounding much... He needs development.

    Says a lot that now he might be averaging 2 pts and 2.8 rebounds a game.
    We don't have a tough guy that can play on the bench

    Has Dorsey turned into a tourist now? Why isn't he playing?

    I saw Capela seated behind the bench in the Jazz game. I hope he can speed up his recovery and start playing. We need some rim protection on the bench unit.

    Cutting Adrien may come back and haunt them.

    The Curious "Face" of Donatas Motiejunas

    Yeah he just dribbled the ball off his own face.

    Yup, saw that too.

    So sad to see how much he's fallen off.

    I think we can officially close the chapter on DMo experiment.

    He still cannot rebound.

    He is still physically weak.

    He is still soft.

    He is still a liability on defense.

    I am just not seeing any improvement.

    The only reason he is still getting playing time is because of our PF situation and because we dont have anyone else to throw out there once Howard sits.

    Relax and take a Valium. It's only the 3rd game, which is not even complete yet. The melodrama and player hate is ridiculous.

    DMo does not look like he can do a single thing well on the court.
    Well, I take that back. I am certain that he leads the league in number of times on the floor.
    DMo + filler for Hayes.

    Dmo is good. Only 3 games down this season. Like how he got fouled right away when he got the ball in the post. Surprised they didn't go to that again. Very good at moving the ball and quick feet.
