They said in the one of the first intrasquad games that Flip went out to talk to Darko and told him to smile, relax and enjoy the game, something that wasn't happening under the veteran biased coaching of Brown. Larry had the kid all messed up.
Darko first 2 game averages;
21 minutes per game
8.5 ppg
3 blocks per game
6.5 rbds per game
combined 7-12 from the field
Lookin' good Darko! :elephant
Oh, and tonights game against the Milwaukee
Darko 18 minutes, 10 pts, 9 rbds, 2 blocks
Bogut 21 minutes, 3 pts, 6 rbds, 0 blocks
^^#1 draft pick

Do you really think Darko's NBA experience is better than Bogut's College experience the last 2 years?Quote:

Well, Darko has "experience" in the NBA whether you like it or not.Quote:

He's not in a good new team unless they are healthy..
Darko is the worst player in NBA history, statistically.
Lets compare these two in a year or two. Bogut will be better.Quote:

A Pacer team at 40% took the Pistons to 6 games in round 2. Imagine what a 100% strength Pacers team would do to them? Most likely a sweep. And I know deep down inside you know it's the truth, and it scares you half to death.
It hurts deeply to get your butt kicked in every way imaginable over the last 2 years, yes? :elephant :lol :elephantQuote:

OMFG. I can't believe anyone would ever post this. Rasho wasn't the second pick in the lottery. Doesn't the fact that there's even a DEBATE about that mean that Darko is going to have to work to prove he isn't a bust?Quote:

Precisely my point. Just as though you had said "I would bet you Carmelo Anthony will be better than Hedo Turkoglu" the response would be "I certainly hope so".Quote:

Untill Darko can prove he's better than Bruno Sundov, he's not better than anyone in the NBA. Not even the terrible, overpaid stiff Radaslav Nesterovic.

And here are the Darko, Rasho preseason comparisons
Darko----------Rasho
Age 20----------29
PPG 7.9--------4.3
RPG 4.9--------5.7
APG 1.0--------0.9
SPG .50--------.33
BPG 2.88-------.89
FG% .420-----.409
FT% .778-----.750
MPG 23.5-------20.6
Big edge to Darko in blocks, substantial edge in PPG, future looks much brighter for Darko considering Rasho's age. I didn't know Rasho was 29 :wow
__________________
Do you fucking retards understand that you are comparing a lottery pick to a guy that most people think should be third in line to start this team? If Darko doesn't end up a couple of thousand times better than Rasho, then the Pistons made the worst draft pick in history. 8 points and 5 rebounds a game ain't gonna cut it for the second pick in the draft, so can you shut up already?
I think Darko is going to contribute much more this year. He looked pretty good in the preseason and he has really bulked up. He's most definitely a Center, as big as his body is now.
He's going to contribute more simply by virtue of the fact that he's going to be playing. He had skill, otherwise he wouldn't have been drafted so high. I'm not sure why all the Pistons fans are whistling in the dark about him.
There is a big difference in being an 18-yr. old NBA player and a 20-yr. old NBA player.
Darko is playing behind a multiple DPOY, all-star, former 2nd team all NBA center in Wallace, and two very established, high lottery draft picks themselves in Rasheed and McDyess. If he could even get 10-15 minutes per game and get 4-6 ppg and 3-4 rpg, it would a good step in the right direction. His youth and need for body maturation/development played a large role in his limited play in his career so far. His team being stocked at the power positions and making runs at championships added to the fact his coach didn't feel he was ready also stunted his development.
So, while the question whether he'll be better than Rasho is one not befitting a #2 overall draft pick and more than likely made with tongue in cheek sarcasm, it warrants at least a cursory thought in terms of understanding where Pistons fans and Darko fans are coming from. Many are at least a little bit excited to see that Darko has shown glimpses and flashes of the skill and ability that made him such a high pick. We are hopeful that his development is like that of a Jermaine O'Neal or even a Tyson Chandler in that his really early years are not representative of what he is truly capable of. He has great mentors in Ben, Rasheed, and McDyess. Even Dale Davis should make him tougher.
Does he have to prove he's not a bust? Maybe some people think that way. But, I just think he needs his opportunities to show he belongs in this league. Having a big man with his potential skills and abilities is definitely an asset on any NBA team. Even if he doesn't prove to be dominant this year, he still has several years to go before the Pistons need him to be, when Rasheed and Ben start to really decline.
While critics will continue to bash Darko and the Pistons for picking him, perhaps Joe Dumars' patience and foresight puts Darko's development right on schedule.
For the Pistons' sake, I hope he develops in time for them to actually reap the benefits of his development.
A little stressed out are we? It's just a Darko/Rasho Thread, no need to blow all the capillaries in your head over the discussion. As far as I know it's not required reading.Quote:

We should have a vbookie on who will dunk more this season, Darko or Rasho.
BTW, when do I get some vbookie back, kinda lost it all on the lions. damn those lions.
