i don't believe any of us have stated that expectation. its the fact you keep talking about him like he IS putting up 20 and 10 that leads us to rebut.

so you consider darko an important piece of that 04 championship? thats interesting.

i don't believe i've seen darko ever put anything close to a 15-10-5-3-3 line. If I had, he'd definitely be on my fantasy team.

dude, theres only 1 steve nash, and out of all 500 or so NBA players out there, only 13 or so are lucky enough to play with him. you can't compare every PG to nash because that is silly.
and if you are referring to billups in that comment then its irrelevant because darko was never on the floor at the same time as billups. if darko was on the floor that meant it was
garbage time. which means chauncey was resting on the bench after working damn hard for that 20 point lead.
arroyo was never a chucker and garnered more pleasure from assists than scoring. he put up 7 assists in 15 minutes, so which chucking PG's are you referring to please?
i don't think i've ever seen darko sweat. ever. i guess that means he's really fit.
