I'd like to see Darko get a chance to play too. I was all pumped up after the pre-season, and I think that they should have tried to keep that momentum going with him. That would benefit the Pistons toward the end of the season. |
i disagree that he can produce those type of numbers. he's a big man that can shoot free throws. he has almost 3 point range. i don't see why he couldn't have a 40 point game. if he was on a team that constantly fed him with him being the # 1 option to score why not??
you can build around a shot blocking, play within the offense, 7 footer. it's much harder to build around a 25 shot taking forward that barely plays d. carmello's low shot attempt game to put up that 42 points isn't the norm for him.
carmello is selfish to me. i don't see him winning a championship until he's an old vet riding a young teams bench.

i didn't say darko brought us a championship. i said darko has a championship ring. ask mello if he would rather have a great game or a championship ring. if mello was here he would have been sitting on our bench wearing a ring also. remember lb sat him in the olympics.
