I would much rather had Carmelo but you can't go back. I would rather have Duncan for a center but that's the breaks.

I agree with you on Darko, however, this was our first game without Big Ben. Ben was our team leader, our identity for 6 years. He helped bring a Championship to the city. He put Detroit back on the basketball map. I think its natural to talk about him in the first game thread since he left.

Darko was some kid with a bad mustache that sat at the end of our bench for a few years.

(Yes I know that the mustache was only fleeting... but I couldn't resist.)
