i remember the atlanta game that was the one game that darko was aggressive offensively. that's the game that showed me darko was the truth. he was hitting from outside and doing hooks in the post. darko has offensive game i think he just needs a green light. right not he is just letting tay and dice do the scoring.

Bogut is also 7 months older than Darko.

Its a long season. As it goes on Darko should start bring more things that he has been working on in practice the past 2 seasons onto the court.

Deflino should start getting more time and I would not be surprised to see Maxiel make an impact. Lot of things can and will happen between now and April. You know someone is going to hit somekind of a milestone or whatever.

I'm still not entirely clear on the setup, but here's an article for those interested:

Saunders said "The guy here", which implies the statistician stays at the location. This makes sense; I doubt the league pays for plane tickets to rotate the stats guys. Does the NBA pay the scorekeeper's salary, or does the team? I don't know. Either way, it is a hometown scorekeeper who works every game for the same team. Bias can be expected. I've seen nothing to indicate that the league hires them. The only statistics directly affecting the outcome of the game are score, timeouts and time on the clock. Probably the officials monitor those and no one cares overly about the rest.

Edit: LanierFan, thank you for finding that article. Very interesting read.

I wonder if there is a review process after the game... where they can adjust stats.
In baseball errors get changed on the fly... Hockey routinely changes assists and goals... but you don't hear about the NBA changing final stats (at least I can't recall)

They really should.

A team just has to send in a request to the league and ask them to review tape on something.
