Re: Darko Milicic to sign with Boston
Damn, they are loaded! But Rondo will almost have to be the best player in the series to take out the Heat; or he, Pierce, Garnett will all have to play like true all-stars, and Terry like a legit 6th man of the year.
Their depth will help them get through the season, but in a 7-game series against the Heat, the stars will have to step it up big time. I like their chances.:cheers:

I'd be surprised if Darko ends up behind Wilcox on the depth chart. I think Jeff Green will probably back up both the 3 and the 4 while Sullinger plays spot minutes for at least the first half of the season.
This is a great signing for the Celtics, KG and Darko could be a monster defensive duo.

I'd laugh so hard if he beats James, Wade and Bosh in a series. Heck, hopefully we can face New York in the first round and he can beat Anthony as well.[/QUOTE]
By beat do you mean run over and start punching? Because i don't see how else he's beating anyone (unless him sitting in his chair counts...)

Yes, a physical beating.

Actually something that bothers me about Darko's career is how the Pistons gave up on him when he was 20. Why not see out his whole rookie contract? Flip Saunders should have spent more time developing him in his 3rd season - he may have had a slightly better career, and would have eventually replaced Wallace as the starting center.

2nd round at best. Too old.
Re: Darko Milicic to sign with Boston
Boston is definitely a contender, I don't see them losing to anyone in the East outside of Miami but they could even beat them imo.
Re: Darko Milicic to sign with Boston
I'm hoping for a Spurs - Celtics finals, so we can see Darko shut-down Timmy D.

Re: Darko Milicic to sign with Boston
I cannot wait to see Garnett rip into Milicic. :lol
Re: Darko Milicic to sign with Boston
KG playing C the whole season is a off for me.
Re: Darko Milicic to sign with Boston
I like it for Boston. Centers tend to do good in their system.
If they manage to do away with the Heat, they'll need his size against the Lakers.

We need to counter Indiana, Philadelphia and possibly Chicago before then. Hopefully he's coming to play hard and listen

And people think the East is weak.
Re: Darko Milicic to sign with Boston
Nice signing. He is a good shot blocker who will be vital for the 2nd unit. Hopefully he will be motivated come playoff time!
