The Darko Milicic Saga Continues




Posted by Jeff Chan Categories: Athletes, Editorial, NBA,

Darko's got the stuff baby, put him in the gameThe Darko Milicic watch doesn’t stop.  Here at EndScore we are just like 1010 WINS AM news, “You give us 22 minutes, we’ll give you the world.”  Well, this must be the mindset of Darko these days, coach just give me 22 minutes of playing time, I’ll show the world I’m not a bust.  The Serbian gangster has a lot to prove going ahead of D. Wade, Carmelo, and Chris Bosh.  The memories I have of Darko Milicic is during his rookie year playing for Detroit, the time when he was sporting the blond hair.  I was with a buddy of mine right behind the Pistons bench, as they were playing the New Jersey Nets at the Meadowlands.  At the time it was a close game, and during a time out, coach Larry Brown was apparently yelling at either Rasheed Wallace or Chauncey Billups for I guess not going over a screen in a pick-and-roll, or shooting with 5 seconds left on the shotclock instead of 4 seconds, with Brown almost about to have a stroke.  Instead of listening to Brown’s instructions for a diagrammed play (or his incessant yelling, I can’t remember), Darko was just checking out the Nets dancing girls, totally lost in their aura.  Well, Darko is going to prove all the critics wrong (hopefully.)  So far in six games with the Orlando Magic, Darko is almost getting his 22 minutes, he is playing 20 minutes, grabbing 6 rebounds and 2 blocks a game.  You go boy, that’s the Serbian gangster we’ve come to love.  Darko’s getting love from the Utah Jazz press as well, check it out.  I was shocked to read his quotes I didn’t realze Darko can talk either, I’ve never heard the guy speak before.
