All that would be worked out before a trade is made. Dumars wouldn't just bring a guy in who he thought would be a problem. Anyways speaking of the cap all these deals will lap over each other anyway and like I said earlier with the way the GM's are throwing out money you don't think Darko is going to get a good deal? He'll get more if not than same than Harrington and Harrington's already proven he'll at least be worth it. I probaly wouldn't make the deal if we didn't already have 3 big men and a 6'7" big man outplaying him already. I just don't see Darko getting on the level of either of the Wallace's or Dice, so his "production" and "productivity" will be easy to replace.

All I know is Darko better turn into a hell of a player. And maybe me not seeing Darko ever become a 20 and 10 guy has my view slanted a little.
Murphy's law states if we trade him he becomes NBA MVP. If we keep him who knows. It's a risk no matter what we do but thats the fun of it. We have two years invested in Darko, I don't see why to give up at this point. I knew Darko wasn't going to be traded because Flip already give away the answer at his press confernce. The only returning assistant coach is who? Darko's buddy, Igor Kokoskov. Igor of course is on the coaching staff for the same country Darko will be playing for this summer. Nothing against Igor but I don't think theres a chance in hell Flip or Joe Dumars brings back Igor if Darko was on the way out.
