This particular awful jump shooter sure had it going last night on short jumpers around the basket.

Further, the Pistons drafted Darko for his range. If you wanted to use him like Sheed, to jack up a bunch or threes, I bet you would find him more than capable. (Of course, instead Darko has had a series of coaches who will not let him shoot outside shots. Not that Darko was being picked on or anything. Hill in Orlando made Howard quit taking any jumpers.)

I have personally seen Darko drain threes on the run, like it was nothing. On many occasions. First try. Yes, he can shoot the ball.

There you go, maybe he needs to be running when he shoots? Actually I have not seen Darko play all year. Have not really thought about him much.

You are missing out on watching quite a basketball player. Like I said, NBA League Pass is great.

I love watching the Griz. Strange i know. I still have love for Darko, and Rudy Gay entertains the hell out of me. I also like their quick PG's. I'm curious to see if Crittenton turns out be good.

As bad as BBeen, on the offensive end, that's a low blow.
Grizz have no I.D. the whole org. will suck for years. Darko or no Darko.
