OK, here's an interesting twist to this thread.
Why don't we turn this into a poll, with the question being why is it that Darko has substantially improved his scoring, maintained his superb shot blocking skills, but still hasn't learned how to rebound better than Earl Boykins with a broken leg.
Is it lack of effort/desire?
Lack of experience?
Lack of skill?
I, for one, am going to vote for lack of effort/desire, because shot blocking and rebounding are both about timing. Shot blocking doesn't take a lot of work. Rebounding does. He has the timing to be a great shot blocker, so he should have the timing to be a great rebounder. He simply doesn't want to get his hands dirty and FIGHT for the rebound.
Thoughts?
Darko rebounds like Theo Ratliff.
If that were the worst of his problems, he'd still be a Piston.
What happened to our boy last night in his season finale? Was he just hiding in the corner of the court puffing on a cig?

our current crop of young guys, in delfino, amir, and maxiell are MUCH more promising in their flashes of brilliance that Darko ever was here. good riddance to pornstache rubbish.
Being careful not to break his hand.Quote:

It's because he's a ferner. People went crazy about Memo and are starting to lose their minds about Delfino.
thats bullshit. no one i know went crazy about losing memo(it was expected and accepted). and theres nothing crazy going on about delfino. Muthafuckas think darko is the next big thing. thats something totally different. honestly has less to do with your foreign agenda and more to do with justifying a #2 pick. I dont give a shit about justifying that pick. its some oh well shit. not going to make or break us.
Diddy is the one with the ferner agenda.
He's trashed every foreign player Joe drafted. And I'm not talking a little bit of trash talk.
I'm talking WOD v Mikey, TerrorDome only kind of trashing. The kind of trashing you'd pay money to read.
Diddy ripped into Memo like Shaq rips into burgers.
Maybe Ronzone fucked his Mom, or mabe even fucked his Dad but for some reason WOD hates the foreign kids.
Memo had a fine season, Delfino has shown flashes.
Darko? Time will tell. He's shown flashes of being capable and also shown signs of being shit.
I want to be around for the day ONE foreign kid drafted by Joe actually gets Diddy's endorsement.
It might take a while but eventually it has to happen.
Doesn't it?
