Your right that I am not at the piston practices but from what I read and hear now from two different coaches that Darko doesn't practice hard. I tend to believe that. As for the few good games from last season it was one. It was against the hawks and that great frontline of Tom Gugliotta and Jason Collier. I am glad he played well on the serbian team too bad he isn't playing against much NBA talent if any. He absolutely sucked during the summer league. He played pretty well during training camp but has now reverted back to the old Darko. He is an excellent blocker but other then that and passing he doesn't have much going for him right now. Again I wouldn't have an issue with him if when he went out there he played with some fire and hustle but he doesn't.
