Re: Media continues to crap on Milicic
Its too bad he doesn't know how to time his block attempts yet... 5 fouls last night limited him to 17 minutes, he could have played over 20 again. 4 Blocks was nice, but he may have been over-aggressive. Still, I'd rather see him over-aggressive instead of passive.

Re: Media continues to crap on Milicic
Lindsey with the long bomb. Story of the play there was Rip keeping his dribble despite the fall, great ballhandling... but if Lindsey is hot tonight then the Cavs are in TROUBLE. Because when Lindsey gets hot he's a pretty solid sharpshooter. He's a guy that has shot over 43% from beyond the arc in another lifetime (the 90s, haha).

Re: Media continues to crap on Milicic
Cleveland gets up over 20... Ilgauskas with another tip. They're getting those offensive boards and scoring on the second chances. Even when they have to reset they get the points on the second chance (see the last play of the 1st...).

From what i've seen he's got great timing on his block attempts. The problem he showed in the first game is he tried to block every damned shot that went up. In the Houston game he was much more under control. The 5 fouls had little to do with anything wrong with his shotblocking. It was just the way the game was going. Orlando's whole frontcourt was in foul trouble. One of the calls in particular when Darko drove baseline and Yao took a charge was a really bad call ... Darko got an offensive foul and Yao was way inside the semi-circle. It should have been a foul on Yao which would have taken him out of the game ... but he was getting the calls.

Re: Media continues to crap on Milicic
Darko's defense is awesome and since he has joined the Magic is tied with Ben Wallace for avg shot blocks at 2.3. I would like to see how many blocks he gets in a 40 minute game, he is a blocking machine..which reminds me that shot blockers used to be coveted by teams. Not only is he a shot blocking machine, but he can guard PF, Centers and SF.
I don't think the Pistons will win it all this year, they have no bench and could use an energetic 7'1" athletic center/PF coming off the bench. Their starters will burn out by end of the season. I doubt if they can get Darko now as his value as gone way up now. I doubt Orlando who trade Darko even for Ben wallace and change.

Re: Media continues to crap on Milicic
6pt/4reb so far in 9 tonight.
Seriously though, circle April 13 on your calendars. I know I am. Darko always abuses Rasho in international play, we'll see if he can do it in the NBA as well.
-Chris.
please don't use the word rape in that context on this board. thank you.

Re: Media continues to crap on Milicic
12 and 9 tonight, along with 2 assists and 2 blocks. Would have had the double-double, too, but Orlando's coach is stupid.
