You would think that the great Darko would shine in situations where there is no Dwight Howard on the court to limit his touches and rebounds. So does this mean that if you put Darko in a postiton where he is with an inferior cast of players he won't excel. Seems to me that this is the type of scenario that exposes who the dominant players are. Stick them on the court and see what leader emerges from the bunch. Maybe its just me but I'm partial to the players in the league that do things like score, grab rebounds, get assists, shoot 3's, shoot a high field goal/free throw pct. etc... Just imagine how amazing Darko would be if his block numbers were down too! Then we could celebrate how good his numbers would be if players weren't so intimidated by his shot blocking prowess. With luck, Darko can be the first player to make the allstar team that averages 8 pts, 4 rebounds, and 1 blocked shot a game. A new era in basketball compensation will emerge, one where stats have no bearing on player salaries. Darko, the trend setter!
