OT: How will Darko do with some PT and a new home?

Now that Darko is out of Detroit and in Orlando where he should get some playing time, how do you think he will do?

I haven't seen him play.

I can't expect that he'll be worse though....

I dont expect much from him. There's a reason why Brown and now Sanders didnt give the kid any playing time... he must not be all that good.

Did you learn nothing from Jermaine O'Neal? He COULD be allright. He was playing behind Sheed, Ben and McDyess. Now he's playing behind who? Dwight Howard? The kid'll get some PT and probably produce a little. 3 years of practice with the Pistons is a hell of a start I'd say.

I would say that he'll be a good starter and a borderline all-star.

Re: OT: How will Darko do with some PT and a new home?

Of all the Jermaine O'neal comparison, this one is probably the most valid. I watched Darko in some preseason games and he looked like a player. But he has not won a spot in a rotation that includes Rasheed, Ben, McDyess. Just like Jermaine with Wallace, Grant, Sabas. I think a good future comparison is Mehmet Okur. A euro who got a lot better after a few years in the league.
