I suspect piston's management will push Flip to give him some minutes at least early on in the season to see where Darko really is talent wise. Overall though I really don't think he is going to get that many more minutes next year especially with Maxiell on the team now. I guess I could handle Darko sucking right now if he at least had a good attitude and he actually put forth some effort but I guess that is to much to ask of him.
