    They're re-signing him because he complemented Al Jefferson very well.

    But they're trying to trade Al Jefferson.

    Milicic doesn't complement Kevin Love as well as he does Jefferson.

    WTF is going on over there? How can Kahn retain his job?

    If they can not get other players to come to Minny, getting a bunch of midlevel assets is the best you can do....

    Gooden got 32M for 5 years.
    Darko's contract is reasonable. The guy can play.

    Morey will steal Rubio from Kahn...COUNT ON IT!!!

    This has to be the dumbest contract in the history of the NBA along with Jon Koncak's 6 yr 13 million dollar deal... :eek:

    I'm just more puzzled how Darko always seems to get these kinds of deals. He may be a complete bust, but ******* if he isn't the luckiest draft bust I've ever known.

    You know what they say about a fool and his money...

    No wonder Al wants to be traded out of there posthaste.

    The Gooden deal is also an atrocity, but at least he's shown he can be consistently productive when given minutes.

    I thought about calling out the Wolves because most GMs could probably sign two players as productive as Darko for $5M a year, but this is David Kahn we're talking about, so probably not.

    Check his age.

    The "P" word reigns supreme.

    You know, I'm not going to trash them for this.

    ~$5M per for a back up 7 footer with athleticism, a fair touch, and gives you about 8 and 5.5 (and 1.5 blocks) in 24 mpg isn't awful. Marcin Gortat makes more and doesn't even play unless Dwight gets into foul trouble.

    There are plenty of backup F/Cs out there making criminal money that aren't as good as Darko is at this stage. He's only a laughingstock because Detroit took him above Melo and Bosh (clearly stupid). Not his fault. And he would have been a lot better had Larry Brown tried to develop him instead of treat him like unwanted trash.

    Darko has value, I just don't think it's at that level. I would love to have him on the Rockets for a low salary backing up.
