Darko Watch

his offense could work against SF's but on defense he is way too slow to gaurd other Sf's

hed be wasted at SF...too tall for them so hes better at pf or c.

as for prince, hopefully detroit can sort out the contract extension and we wont need another one

I wonder what will happen once Darko's contract expires.

He'll get the same contratc/trade offer as Kwame Brown got this year but this time Darko'll be worth it

I wonder what will happen once Darko's contract expires.

If he shows any basketball skill for a whole year then hes gonna get an extension.

I wonder what will happen once Darko's contract expires.

i rekon some other team will go after him, and will get him. unless he gets playing time this season - if he gets time he will stay.

anyone catch darko's nasty dunk tonight?

a dunk over Diop, 9pnts (4-7) in 22mins, including a nice 3.

Kid looks confident.

I wanna see Darko leave the Pistons... It's been a while since a big name player has switched teams. 6th man of the year or most improved for Darko?

lol, deff not 6th man.

Darko atm is a big name, he needs to attach "player" to the end of that.

He's showed some big strides last night. He had range and he was a good rebounder again. Things are looking up.

his dunk was awesome the commentator had a heart attack lol

I kno. On FSN Greg Kelser was going wild, it was D's best play ever in the NBA. That dunk or the game tying 20 footer he hit versus Dallas, either one.

Is Darko the future of the NBA?

hopefully :p unless pistons trade him, then he can go to hell

lol

i think this should be an appropriate picture to summarise the Larry Brown era

How much playing time will he get? If the Wallace brothers play 34 minutes per game each and McDyess once again gets 23 minutes, that leaves 5 minutes for Darko. But then again, they could play with a lineup of three bigs for couple of minutes each game, which would make more room for him. Or perhaps Saunders will try to rest Rasheed and Ben more. They're not getting any younger.

I think it'd be good to cut the Wallace minutes to about 32 a game. If they play as much as last season, they'll be worn out as was evident in last years playoff run. McDyess minutes don't really matter that much, i mean the 23 or so he'll get won't wear him out.

I'm sure there will be opportunities for Darko, especially if Rasheed gets called for 2 early fouls which happens just about every other game.

I'd like to see saunders play some zone (a 5 minute stretch or so) and have this team on the floor

C Ben Wallace
PF Darko
SF Rasheed
SG Prince
PG Billups

that'd be great to see. The perimeter D looks good, and the offense won't be compromised either.

I don't think Rasheed likes to play the 3 spot. He wasn't comfortable playing that position when he was still in Portland, Randolph became the PF then.

well it'll be in spot minutes. and if it's a zone it doesn't really matter because your not guarding anyone in particular. On offense he likes the perimeter though.

I wonder what will happen between Shaq and Darko tonight.

Darko dunks on Zo, and tonight against Mavs registers 7 points, 6 BLOCKS and 3 rebounds......ownage.

zo is fucking garbage, i'm so glad darko dunked on that fool. flex on that, pussy.

6 blocks!!!!! darko is fucking awesome!!!

(get him now on salary cap challenge if you play it hes a blocking champ!!!)

zo is fucking garbage, i'm so glad darko dunked on that fool. flex on that, pussy.

yeah i know, next time he flexes a kidney might pop out.
