You have to use Dmo when you need buckets, you just have to...

    Point is Im not harping about ONE game. Its becoming a bad habit. If Dmo is this franchise guy then he should lead by example. On both ends. If he isnt healthy enough to play defense okay, but you cant point fingers at everyone BUT Dmo when the team struggles.

    Scoring wasnt the problem last night was it? Couldnt get a stop when needed, couldnt get a board to save your life. Game over.

    Dmo can play better defensively 'i've seent it' but Im hoping he regains that form fast because the team needs it desperately.

    Dmo seems to be in a rush all the time. He's not smooth at all, he's rushing from his dribbling to his passing to his shooting. He just needs to slow down and go back to what he was,patient

    Dmo isn't as quick as Capela defensively AND they dont want to rush him on offense. Dmo is technically still in training camp mode. Think about how long he went without playing actual games. JB already said they're trying to bring him in slowly and can't just introduce all these variables he's responsible for. Gotta focus on a few things first and then expand his responsibilities with time.

    JBB needs to post this man if this damn team wants to win games. He's way better and more consistent than Dwert in the post. :mad:

    I liked the DMo and Capella combo, hope that is next year's starting front court.

    They play well together. JBB needs to play them together more.

    If it is, at least we can get back the lotto pick that we lost when the DMo trade was rescinded.

    WHY DID JB KEEP DMO OUT FOR SO LONG AGAINST THE BULLS!?!?!?!?!

    Please do NOT TRADE D-Mo! He is the only guy with any offensive skills other than Harden.

    Rockets should consider Starting D-Mo & Capella! D. Howard off the bench!

    Nah, we will probably protect our first round pick by missing out on the playoffs, and Capella and Dmo both FIT Harden's game they move off the ball and don't clog the lane on offense like Dwert does.

    But yeah, maybe we can get Whiteside....and bring Capella off the bench.

    They got us back in the game and the lead against the Bulls. Dmo is the best PF to start but the starters don't look for him and JB won't utilize him correctly. They would rather force feed Dwight to keep him happy even though he sucked all night.

    SOOOO true, Dwight is just not a good offensive player, and refuses to understand where his strengths are these days....

    If Dmo is such a good scorer, why can't he create his own shot like all the other scorers?

    You do have a point there, he is playing unselfishly. Should be more selfish if bums like Bev and Smith take that many shots.

    Did you even read my comment? I'm talking about the coach not utilizing him properly and the starters ignoring him on offense.

    Is that like calling TJones a young Dwight Howard?

    I don't even understand why we're not sitting Dwight the rest of the season. Save some mileage on Howard's knees, give Capela/Trez/DMo more minutes see what will come of it for next season.
