    The Wolves fans started chanting his name last night. They are seriously thinking he's turning the corner with them. There has even been talk that he fits the triangle a lot better than Al Jefferson does.

    It does my heart good to see his acceptance with the Minnie fans, players, coaches, and news people. I think he has finally gotten his chance and now it is up to him to make use of it.

    No excuses.

    I have been reading the Minneapolis Star and have articles to submit, if and when you guys want to read them, and if I am sure it is legal.

    There will be no more complaints about the kid not getting his chance, at least not from me.

    Lazy, go ahead and post whatever you like. As long as it is not someone's paid content like ESPN insider, it is fine. You have been one of us since the beginning, and if you want to share Darko stuff, than go for it.

    There is Darko #2 in the draft this year - expected to go top 10.

    Darko is looking solid, but even if he keeps improving the guy will always be looked at as a disappointment because he went #2 in one of the greatest drafts in NBA history. And guess what he has done the past 7 years as the #2 pick? Close to nothing. It's nice to see him finally get a groove going, but it took him too long.

    Based on what I've seen is that he still looks mentally weak. The guy was about to go back overseas because he was riding the bench until Minnesota grabbed him.

    I'm not going to lie though. I'd want him back on this team right now though. We need some size big time.

    5-11 shooting

    13 Points
    9 Rebounds
    5 Assists
    3 Blocks
    3 TO's

    Against the Lakers

    I don't get people's bitterness towards him. It isn't like he ever really underperformed for us, because he never really played for us. So he isn't Bosh or D-Wade, could he help us now?

    I don't get why people keep harping on him about biggest disappointment blah blah blah. Who doesn't know that. Even he knows it. Give it a rest, but I wouldn't mind giving the guy a shot.

    I'd love to have him over Kwame.

    Darko has no desire to join with Pistons, I'm sure. It was he who demanded trade. He was a member of champion team but for him it was not very important...so he burned bridges...

    Get over, folks it does not help.

    He puts up a line and how soon people forget that he is a head case.
