    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">When David Aldridge told TNT viewers Thursday night that the Pistons are taking calls for Darko Milicic, one NBA executive might have been tempted to reach for the phone...if he hadn't already. The Nets have long been interested in the underperforming 7'-1" center, having made several attempts to pry him from the Pistons. Martin Johnson of the New York Sun thinks Detroit would be smart to deal the 20-year-old and suggests New Jersey could be among several serious bidders. </div>

    Interesting. If we can trade him for Marc Jackson, we might have a steal. It's not like Marc is doing anything for us.

    I don't know...I don't think Darko fits any of our needs for a big man. He isn't a very good defender or rebounder, and he doesn't have the bulk or strenth we need either. But, if we get him for somebody like Jeff McInnis, we might be grateful for the trade in the future.

    if you got darko it would be for a SF

    McInnis, Murray and the Clips 1st round draft pic...and theres also a rumor that we might try to get Ruben Patterson from the blazers...Jackson,Zoran and 2nd rounder? Darko is ONLY 20...people tend to forget get...Patterson has a history...but Thorn has took chances before with Kidd and Carter...and Patterson is a great defender...if we can get those 2...it would be a steal!
    we would still need a cheap PG though...

    i love patterson....hes great and i would not mind having darko

    we need a change on the nets...any change i think would be beneficial....

    remember JO in portland? he didnt do ANYTHING but given the right opportunity he blossomed into an MVP canidate....we dont know if that is true for darko but I think he would help out [​IMG] do it! do it! im tired of having the same team...shake things up...were not rollin like we should be

    I woudlnt trade for him if I were you guys. Why would Detroit trade for draft picks if their planning for the future when Darko is only 20(?) years old. They are basically telling the world he is a bust and they give up on him. I feel the same way. Also Marc Jackson is much better than Darko. As a Sixer fan I loved having Marc Jackson on the team last year. Letting him go was a huge mistake IMO.
