Okur is a stud.
A stud who happened to play for Detroit during our championship year, coming off the bench. He had the same great touch and shot, and I would say he was defintely an integral part of why the Pistons won it all in 04. He was clutch, a reliable scorer. And he always had this sour look on his face while playing for Detroit. But he was always popular here because everyone knew he had real skill. Now in Utah he has the eye of a killer...it's a remarkable visual change in his demeanor. Where before he had the demeanor of a 6th man, a lesser part, now he looks like a starter on a good team. So we took Darko over Melo, Wade, LeBron or CB4, and then we let Okur go to Utah, and then we gave up on Darko and traded him. Its amazing we haven't turned into the Boston Celtics.
Biggest shock of the week imo: Seattle mauling Phoenix.
Is it time to give Nash his 3rd MVP yet?
IMO, they should give it to him at the allstar game because its a foregone conclusion.
