I hope you guys enjoy these highlights. Because once Asik comes back you aren’t going to get to see any more D-mo. He must really, absolutely, literally not play any defense at all. Because his offensive skills should be enough to earn him at least a little playing time. Even the Rockets’ announcers stay stuff like “He just needs to play a little D”.
I totally sympathize with Donatas. It’s hard to play defense. It’s hard to find the energy to contest shots. It’s so much easier to save your energy for offensive. There’s more positive feedback watching your own shot fall than preventing someone else’s from falling. And the sooner they score, the sooner you can get the ball back!
