Darko's comments have now reached ESPN Quote of the Day Status:
Quote of the Day
"I'm happy to get another chance to play, to see what I can do. In Detroit, it was horrible for me. A nightmare."
-- Darko Milicic, reflecting on 2 ½ seasons as a 7-foot spectator for the Pistons
Yes, winning a championship, making millions of dollars to play a game, and having free courtside seats to every Pistons game...
Sounds like a nightmare.

Makes him sound like a whinier bitch than he already is.Quote:

i don't give a shit if he was busting his ass in practice. he wasn't showing a damn thing during his few minutes in the game. if he busted his ass on the court like he's supposed to, then i'd feel for him. he makes it sound like the organization was out to get him. i'd like to live the nightmare of getting paid millions to play basketball. wasn't he from a war torn country? he should count his pasty-ass blessings that he's not fighting in a war right now. no millionaire barely-an-adult athlete, who's most trying times are getting pulled over for tinted windows, reserves the right to call his life a nightmare. sorry, Sheed, but DMC IS a punk.
i hope Mutombo busts his nose with those legendary elbows next time Darko tries to stare him down.
nightmare....*psshhhhhhhhhhhhhh*
[smilie=angryfire.g:
Man fuck Darko. I hope he ends up chasing after chickens in serbia like that son of a bitch in the nba 06 commercial. I don't have any respect for a pasty ass 7ft softie who made millions by not living up to 5% of his potential.
Here's to a shitty career filled with airballs and posterizations. Drink up bitches.
NBA.com does not have Darko listed on the active roster. What is going on?
Magic fans say Darko is sitting on the bench. HE GOT A DNP-CD IN THE FIRST HALF. Playing behind Pat Garrity and Mario Kasun.
Arroyo 14 min in the first half vs the Nets , 5 of 7 , 10 points, 3 rebs, 2 ass [smilie=shocked2.gi:
Uhhh he sucks?Quote:

You wonder what Darkos thinking right now..."Are you fucking shitting me....maybe i do suck. If im not good enough to play here"
There's a lot of speculation that maybe Orlando was showcasing Garrity and Kasun for the trade deadline. And, Darko has only had 1 real practice and they aren't comfortable yet. So we should hold our judgement until after the next game?
LOL, the kid gets 3 yrs here but only 3 games playing for the best franchise in the world? I'd say that judgement is a little rushed.
didn't Grant Hill just say last game, that the 4 minutes Darko played in the last game was the least he'd play all season?
I thought Brian Hill said that.
But whomever said that Garrity or Kasun were being shopped last night was probably right.
Darko should see more minutes after today's deadline.
They need to improve their draft pick as much as possible.
What do you think the Vegas over/under line is on total elapsed time from when Darko joins the Magic until he makes his first complaint about playing time??
DBTM, u gonna ever change your name?

Milicic blames everyone but himself for his shortcomings
"I didn't come here to sit on the bench," Milicic said Thursday after the Orlando Magic's practice. "I tell myself that everything will be fine here, but right now, nothing has changed. I want to play. I need to play. I learn nothing sitting on the bench."
i starting get the feeling that Darko might not get it. it sounds like he's got this sense of entitlement that he just won't let go of. he won't "lower himself" to just busting his ass and earning his minutes.Quote:
"I was pissed," he said. "It was always the same story, same story. They told me to be ready, and I was. They told me to have a good preseason, and I did. But my playing time went to nothing. They didn't want me, so I needed to leave."
But was his time in Detroit really "a nightmare," as he called it this week before he played his first game with the Magic?
Milicic, 20, found freedom and riches he never could have envisioned as a kid in war-torn Serbia and Montenegro.
"War is bad, but it's something that is out of your control," he said. "Basketball is something that you can control, and when it didn't work out like I had wanted, it became a bad experience. I just want to play basketball and have fun." The Pistons "didn't give me that chance."
LOL @ Him
Doesnt he remember getting minutes at the beginning of the season and doing nothing with them? Fuck that bitch. I hope he bombs and no NBA team sings him. Jackass.
I HOPE A PACK OF DOLPHINS KILLS DARKO AND THEN HIS HOUSE IS LOOTED BY ILLEGAL MEXICANS OR CUBANS OR WHATEVER THE ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT THEY HAVE DOWN THERE.
Everybody needs to move on from the Dark(o) Era.
He is not worthy enough to have a thread stickied for him.
I must admit though:
I'd rather see him play than Garrity.

Darko is already pouting in Orlando:
ORLANDO -- Four days into a fresh opportunity at redemption, and Darko Milicic is already sulking. The name on the uniform is different, but the seat at the end of the bench hasn't changed.
He doesn't get it. And he probably never will.
He can't even play on a team that has given up hope on the season.
"I didn't come here to sit on the bench," Milicic said Thursday after the Orlando Magic's practice. "I tell myself that everything will be fine here, but right now, nothing has changed. I want to play. I need to play. I learn nothing sitting on the bench."

Dont play yourself any longer kid with your puddle of tears. I've gone from indifferent to "somebody whoop this lil' brats ass"
I love it. When I see him still not get it, even with crappy players ahead of him that he should EASILY be able to pass in the rotation with effort, it makes me happy. It tells me that even if we had chosen him over Dyess (ie traded Dyess), Darko still would have been a flop here. It tells me that the original pick sucked, but at least we did the right thing in trading him.
FWIW, over at the orlando forums, they're saying the quote was taken out of context. he wasn't talking about orlando when he said, "i didn't come here to sit on the bench". there's audio of the interview somewhere.
Didn't some "here" as in over the America and the NBA?? So he's playing for free??
He didn't do so bad.... 8 points, 5 rebounds, and 2 blocks in 22 minutes.
How about Arroyo?!?!?!
18 pts. 7-11 FG 1-1 3PT 3-3 FT 4 RB 4 AST 0 TO
Darko also shot 3-4 from the field, 2-2 from the line, had an assist, only turned the ball over once and only had 1 foul.
