Tonight Darko had a career high 21 points along with 8 rebounds, 4 assists and 2 blocks in 34 minutes
In the month of Feb, he's averaging:
28min 13.2pts 6rbs 1.7asts 1.85blks 52.9FG% 84.6FT%
Manu was NBA ready and he would get PT even under LB. I can't say anything about Devin, but hey don't forget: Pop was FORCED to play Parker. Pop wanted Kidd in first place!
And yes, LB is even worse with rookies as Pop is.

Darko has no heart. As soon as he gets a decent contract he'll disappear forever.
sheldon williams hawks>darko
Really?
Based on what?
Williams is 2 years older, and played 4 years in a top notch college program. Yet doesn't look much better than Darko right now.
Whereas Darko at 15 was playing in an adults league ....In another country... if you call it playing. He was at the end of the bench. Saw very little playing time.
He was drafted on potential. Sheldon was labeled as NBA ready.
I don't think anyone is able to make a verdict on what Darko may or may not be.
His first 2 years were not only wasted by LB, but probably sent him backwards a year. This year w/ Orlando is for the most part, his rookie year.
Sheldon may be a better defender and rebounder, I give you that. But I still think Darko has the ability to be an All Star in this league. Sheldon has had tons more preparation for the NBA than Darko could even dream of, yet right now, Darko looks to be the better of the 2.
6 rebounds for a 7 foot second pick overall in the draft is just stupidly low.
To his defense Dwight Howard sucks up alot of rebounds.
I thought the disappearing part already happened...
