Donatas Motiejunas - X Factor

If you're entire season rest on the shoulder's (or back) of D-Mo, you're doing it wrong.

 

Sometimes one good TEAM oriented player is what is missing from the chemistry.....let's hope DMo is that guy.

This. He is also our best Post player. Offense will really benefit from having him out there.

 

as much as i didn't like josh smith's game, i think he was a team oriented player while he was here, so when dmo went down we still had him.

 

Agreed, but Raven's point can't be diminished. If we are relying on DMO to contribute to winning immediately we are asking a lot. Let's hope he is at least 90% of what he was last year and we will be fine. That is tough though coming off back surgery with no real game experience in several months.

I do think if anyone can be plug and play (on any team) it is DMO. I really hope he can play to his level last year and continue to progress as the season goes on.

 

If he can hit his threes, as been reported in practice, he will help a lot.

Dmo for player coach a la Bill Russell

 

Yep. Lawson and Harden both should play better with some more room.

 

Can't change the past. Rockets team don't have enough guys like DMo that can play both ends of the court and shoot.

 

If anyone outside of DMO can hit their 3s that would help a lot as well LOL. Especially when the team as a whole is shooting 3ball at 29% and their current PF TJ is leading the team in 3pt FG% at .357%.

wrong post sorry

 

The team did when Howard was out for 41 games last season.

 

The best part about the garm is that all these posters that are wishing for his quick return are going **** on him when he struggles early on.

 

He's our hardest worker. He's going to have an awesome season

 

Capela and Beverly might have something to say about that

 

Based on what McHale and his teammates said, Motiejunas is a gym rat.

 

It's not even close. His work ethic is unmatched by anyone in the NBA.

 

Sometimes practices doesn't equate in the real time situation, the game. And it's a good chance Dmo won't be in game shape once he do come back.

The GARM is always full of pipe dreams. Let the man get some 5 on 5 drills before saying what he might bring to the table once he's back. Dude could easily have a set back.

 

Says who, Curry work ethic is by far the best in the NBA. So is Lebron and our very own Howard.
