He has become this season’s Darko Milicic, a player with a lot of promise who has yet to fully tap into it because of a lack of playing time. The difference, however, is Delfino actually looks like he belongs on the floor when given minutes. There have been rumors that, once Detroit’s season is over, Delfino will ask to be traded. It’s nothing personal. He doesn’t have beef with Joe D., the organization or Flip Saunders. He just wants an opportunity to play consistent minutes, and based on the fact that Maurice Evans will be here for at least another season and the fact that the Pistons want to start playing Amir Johnson some next season, Delfino may find himself once again buried on the Pistons bench. Like I said, don’t be surprised to see him in another NBA uniform next season.
