GAME THREAD??: MIN-MIL

[abrewbro68]

Not at one point in this entire game did I really think we could win tonight. Never got that impression. It's remarkable how anti-clutch we are. We got about six looks at a basket in the last two possession and couldn't make a shot. We need a lot of changes. I don't even know if Darko wlll be here in two seasons.

The amazing part was....we didn't seem to run plays for Mike or Love. Yeah Love had the look from 3, but it's only because Mike threw it out top for him.

Why does Luke and Darko try to be people they are not? The last possessions should of been all for Mike and Kevin.

Heard one of the national media guys talking about Darko and said if he ever cared he'd be a heck of a player. I'm starting to believe that. He's got a good BBIQ, understands defense, and passes well. Yet he doesn't have a go to move and seems tentative. I think he'd be alright in a lineup where you had 3 or 4 strong players, but right now with only Beasley and Love offering anything consistent we need more out of him than he's providing.

Wes didn't shoot great, but I liked his aggressiveness. If he can keep this up he'll be alright. Had some shots that rimmed out that should've fallen. He was a bright spot and looked like he was putting the effort in defensively.

Maybe just a bad game who knows. Would just like to see him be a bit more consistent.

I missed most of the game (the pie has been so unreliable lately), but Darko only took 6 shots, he had 5 boards, and 3 TOs. The stats don't indicate that he killed us in any way. Care to break it down?

Still soft, can't finish at the rim, stupid fouls, surprisingly gets worked down low not just by Bogut but even Brockman was muscling his way inside even though he's a bum. He looks lost out there sometimes & when it's not going his way he gets frustrated but doesn't let his game do the talking.

Darko's always had problem focusing, something I could always relate with.
I'm surprised though, lately he's been fairly solid.

Basically we need a center with some balls. Like this guy!

ONE GAME? and we all hate Darko? he's had a ton of soliddddd games! Where's Darko Miliminutus to back me up?

[The J Rocka]

It's not that we are "hating" just making observations & it's been like this for sometime. Like I've said already I like Darko, it just gets frustrating at times. I guess I have higher expectations for him.

[teven_1]

yeah fair enough but he came into All star break with some good games if I remember. We shouldn't let this game slide, we should demand more, but I dunno if we should give up on him either.

If we're acting like he's a rookie he's just hit a slump every now and again.

[Grits n Gravy]

i only saw the second half but he played great d and played with great energy there, offensively you could say it was a shocker but we've had this problem all season, beas, love and darko can never have good games when there all on the court. i was really impressed with wes doing the intangibles, playing good d and crashing and helping on the boards..his jump shot still seems broke but at least he was giving extra effort in other areas that can help us win, this has been sorely lacking with him lately.

[Calinks]

Well I have always been leery of Darko but my comments about losing faith are more about the team as a whole than Darko.

[Klomp]

personally, I'm more upset/disappointed with Wes' 5-14 than Darko's 2-6.

[Breakdown777]

I don't know if this was mentioned or not, but if we make the same number of FT as the Bucks...we win this game.

I'll be back to spam this board again once I become a jobless bum again. Sounds like a tough loss, it seems that nobody really had a great game, average numbers or so for Love, nice return for Beas but apart from that we're clutching straws. As for the downer on Darko very harsh, as we always are on players who're being a bit inconsistent. I like him and I think he'll be well worth the money we're paying for him.

[fleet40]

It's safe to say that Bill Laimbeer at the ripe old age of 50+ (heart attack not withstanding) would be a better defensive presence in the middle for this team than any of the guys who are employed to play the game at C.

Sad really.

ONE GAME? and we all hate Darko? he's had a ton of soliddddd games! Where's Darko Miliminutus to back me up?

Right here brother...

There has been plenty of reasons for people to be down on Darko, i thoroughly understand. But he he's got a lot to build on, and he's also given a lot of reasons to be up on him.

He absolutely has what it takes!

Darko will be an all-star, as a member of the Wolves!
