guys, darko isnt supposed to be carmelo 2.0. he's not supposed to be a huge scorer or team swingman. he's there to fit into Detroit's defensive mindset. darko will most likely be a post player...hitting the glass, making some blocks, drawing double teams, and maybe averaging in the low teens in points every night. if he can do that, then detroit's pick will turn out to be very wise.
they really couldnt have drafted carmelo, since they already took a shot on prince. they knew carmelo was good....but if prince turned out to be good as well, everyone would be saying they wasted their pick on carmelo. too bad that prince is turning out okay, but is still captain inconsistency.
