whats that with mchale consistently posting up dorsey and refusing to postup dmo?!!?
Are you kidding me?!! the all time great post player addicted to posting up players that suck at postups and refusing to postup dmo whose a master and artist of post moves?!!?

Is he jealous of DMO or what?
is he hiding dmo as a secret weapon for PO or hiding him from trade or simply retarding his progression in order to extend MAX player for change?

another paradox the all time great postup player is never tired of his players chucking 3s but as soon s postu ups dont work once or twice he stops posting up??? holyy ****!!!


you have to remember our offense goes by what the defense give us
opponent is not guarding dorsey in the post
they know about dmo post move
they are not allowing him to catch the ball easy in the post now



Dude is a troll.

nice try but i think it doesnt explain the weirdness well...

better explanations are dmo s lack of confidence/alphamaleness or rockets retarding his progress to extend him for cheap...

here are my comments of your explanations

not correct about dorsey...they are guarding dorsey and hes posting up...its not like we are giving him the ball while he has no anyone on him... we are legit posting him up( which i am not against though but why no gave the same chance to dmo but of course a lot more because hes a lot more skilled)

regardless if they know or not about dmos postup he'll score efficiently when posted up...you aint stopping it...except perhaps if you are de andre or davis(but he proved he can adjust even to davis type)...remember they also know about harden -nevermind we go to him always even when its not working...they know about ariza 3s we do it again and again despite it not working...
no matter how you try to put it posting up dmo is perhaps the most efficient play for rockets...

its not important for him to catch the ball in the post...he proved it he can dribble it easy to his preffered position

so to sum it up...its most probably the politics or lack of confidence...or a hidden weapon for playoffs half-court...
Fact is that momentum in games is a real thing, while not tangible itself, you can tangibly see the effect it has when teams are on runs and how it can dramatically effect the outcome of games when you can generate any momentum.

Heres the stats for those thinking we lack rim protection without Dwight... DMo is amongst the best in the league in defensive impact...

Beverley is also a free agent. If we sign dragic it's doubtful Patrick will want to sign with Houston to be the backup. Not impossible though since there aren't a lot of available starting pg spots available but think he would rather go back up his buddy d.rose than backup dragic. Depends on the money but Houston will have option to match
Harden is still a work-in-progress. He can score, but he can't help his teammate that much - Yao Ming

I like it for the players, but they should have made the trade deadline yesterday so guys can get to their new teams and maybe practice once.

Why we don't use Dmo on offense more? Its clearly we lose games when our offense reach standstill... Perhaps he would have spoiled plans for bringing Durant over then?
