Moving Pictures: The Return

Posted by Rob Mahoney on December 3, 2009 under Video | 6 Comments to Read

When it comes to Erick Dampier, I’m a believer. I buy the company line that he means more to this team than most people realize. I watch him set perfect screens for Dirk, JET, or Kidd. I watch him go to work on the offensive boards, creating possessions where there were none. And perhaps most importantly, I watch closely to appraise and, in turn, appreciate what Dampier does for the Mavs on defense. In this installment of Moving Pictures (which is totally Nets-less, by the way — it focuses solely on Damp’s return to the lineup against Philly), we’ll examine Damp’s defensive values, in ways both subtle and overt.

    Couldn’t agree more on Damp. I’ve always said that many Mavs fans won’t realize what they have in Damp until he’s gone.

    Excellent video.

    Damp is ridiculously underrated.

    hey rob, somehow the video doesnt work for me (maybe it has something to do with me living in Germany)…you know a way I can get to watch it?

  • Phil

    weird, now that I tried it again “in the comment section” it does work, so never mind (I cant delete my post). GREAT WORK, as always!

    @Phil: Glad it worked itself out. I had to use Vimeo rather than YouTube for this one (YouTube was having trouble uploading…anti-Damp bias?), so that could be why.
