Darko (Not Donny)

This article by Chad Ford, one of Espn.com's better basketball writers, reads almost as an elegy for Darko Milicic, now that the Pistons have dumped the kid on Orlando. In a way it's too bad, because I still could see Darko developing into a decent player. At the same time, there's no way he was going to do it with the Pistons, especially not when most of the time he was playing two or three minutes as the Human Victory Cigar. It just seems like Joe Dumars could have gotten a little more than a lottery-protected draft pick and the Green Hornet's side kick.
