    Kind of a shame, Darko had a nice little run when in the last part of 09-10 season.

    But all the same, Darko's done. He's pretty much openly stated that he no longer has any passion for the game and wants to go back home, and Adelman had benched him at the end of the season. Damn shame given the talent he had.

    Didn't he get a ring with Detroit?
    Considering his draft class. . . it was surprising if he was the 1st to get a ring

    Is it though? In any draft class, chances are that there's a rookie who will win the ring sitting on the bench. All teams usually have at least one rookie under contract every year. Norris Cole and Roddy B the last two years?

    I think Kahn compared Darko to Webber, which pissed off Webber. But I don't remember.

    Hopefully, the Rokets will pick him up. He's a better center than anyone we have now. Even if we acquired Bynum, he would be an excellent backup.

    True, but what has that got to do with improving the Rockets' center delimma?

    One of the biggest busts in NBA draft history considering the draft class that he was in.

    Sad that a #2 pick's best highlights were in his hair?
