    And that's why Machado's speed suits him best right now! ;)

    Except I'm not a pro basketball player like you. Go to sleep Machado, and work on your shooting

    What he need the most is to play WITH defensive center like Asik... He will never be a center... Raptors tried to make Andrea a center, how well that went for them? He will be better reb and post player then Andrea, but will never be a defensive stopper...

    Trade him to Dallas, they will make Dirk2 out of him.

    I agree, he won't ever be a center but I think right now he needs playing time and to develop his post moves. I wish Scola was still around as I think he would have been a great teacher for Motiejunas who probably could have picked up a few of his post moves.

    w00t is right. Except for the Dallas part.

    What D-Mo needs is to play PF.

    D-Mo played PF next to defensive center last year in Euroleague and he broke records.

    Everytime he gets in paint he falls down with little contact, he needs to come to the woodlands and powerlift with me for a month

    Exactly. D-Mo + Asik would be DEADLY. One is offensive powerhouse, other is defensive fortress. They compensate each other perfectly.

    He needs a pg like Machado that can pass him the ball in the post. That way he can magically dominate the paint.

    But without a great passer ... I'm doubt he would play great offensively.

    He can create a shot by himself. He seemed to get into position effortless during both matches.

    So that's why I think he would better play with Machado or Lin. Just stick to Pick & Pop at the beginning of this season, more PnR later and finally try to beat the big man with much more muscle in the low-post next year.
