He will get a flagrant foul before getting a technical.

Also, Pekovic vs. Cousins (Cousins will get upset with Pekovic)

Really looking forward to see Pekovic. I think he's got tremendous potential and will be quite good.

I dont get to see enough NBA games to know if Chris Webber ever does any commentating or special comments during games often (i was at Summer League during that fabled Kahn interview). But i'd love to see a game with Chris Webber commentating and Darko having a game where he is raping the court, its mother and its daughter.

Interview with David "I told you so" Kahn after the game and against the Kings. :lol:

Yes and with you putting it like that, it would put a big smile on my face to see Kahn be able to get a few "I told you so" articles published this coming season.

And Milicic/Every team that made him mad. Looking very forward to this as well. Game's against teams where he really has to walk the walk (*shakes fist* "Damn you Darko, waaaallkk iiitttt"). Hopefully he becomes a raging inferno that excited youngsters like Beasley and Brewer can feed off (and Pekovic will probably join the rage cos it just seems to be his thing) and gives us an edge on teams we previously wouldn't have had a reason to be fired up about, going into a game against.

Really like Pekovic as well. For the first time in hundred years we have a presence inside that can push opposing defenders under the basket away instead of being pushed out of the paint. I think if he comes in as a 6th man a lot of teams will have trouble defending him and he could really be a valueable option inside. Not so sure about his defense, though. Hopefully he can at least play average D. :lol:

I'm looking forward to work slowing down a bit.

The Pekovic/Cousins matchup that Klomp mentioned should be fun. I'm also looking forward to seeing if Darko and Pekovic can play together without killing each other.

Wesley out performing Cousins in every meeting, even a facial dunk on him.

I'm most looking forward to witnessing firsthand how one get's the nickname, "The Montenegran Rapist."

I'm also looking forward to seeing:
1. how many 20+ rebound games Love has.
2. a 100% increase in number of dunks per game.
3. an alley oop (seriously, the last one I remember was Craig Smith to Al Jefferson).
4. Darko swatting shots into the 5th row.

I think Beas/Miami isn't going to amount to much. I'm guessing Beasley gets into foul trouble after MIA draws like 3 charges against him.

Also, with a bum hip and surgery...it's difficult to believe Flynn will improve as much as he should have. :(

Kids, puppy dogs, and long walks in the park. Also maybe the team playing an entire 4 quarters consistently.
