He's going to get a few less contested shots this year if teams think he'll nail those freebies.

I'm happy with the FT shooting and I won't say it will eventually go down, because he's actually looked pretty good. But his scoring averaghe isn't going anywhere if he doesn't start actually shooting the ball and stop throwing up what looks like the equivalent of him trying to throw the ball through the backboard.

4. Darko Milicic goes 2/3 from the field in five minutes, pulling down three rebounds... I'd love to see him on the floor more early. Antonio McDyess just isn't getting it done, and Darko is SERIOUSLY as close as Flip Saunders is going to find to KG on this team. If he wants big men playing a face-up game and to get them the ball further from the hoop, Darko Milicic's lateral speed and height would make him a key player out there. GET HIM IN THE GAMES, DAMMIT.

I like what Darko did, and I'm not exactly sure why he was taken out. Al Jefferson was giving him a really tough time, but their big men gave every big on our team troubles yesterday, so it was no need to single out Darko. In fact he should've taken out Ben.
As you can see I was very upset in the way ben played yesterday. I would compare it to the way he opened the season last year.
