Give David Kahn his due credit, Mychal Thompson says. Thompson found it unfair that Kahn was second-guessed on Ricky Rubio, as well as some other draft picks and trades. "And even Darko Milicic ," Thompson said. "Milicic is a big body that every team needs. He's not Kareem Abdul-Jabbar or Hakeem Olajuwon . But he's a serviceable center with all the talent that's around him. That was a smart signing by David." 1/29/12
Often-injured Wolves center Darko Milicic played as little as a guy can play -- one-tenth of a second -- in Sunday's truly last-second victory over Philadelphia and then did not accompany the team to Denver because of what Wolves coach Rick Adelman called a stomach-muscle injury. Milicic was used for that one-tenth of a second to bat away the 76ers' desperation lob-tip attempt as time expired. 2/21/12
The Wolves were without starting center Nikola Pekovic (sore right foot), but Darko Milicic stepped in with 13 points and good defense on Griffin, who still scored 26. 3/6/12

Now he's really trying to take over for Goldyblocks!
I expect a great year from Wilcox. I don't expect Darko to be needed unless we need an extra 6 fouls or in case of injury or foul trouble. He's big and he's somewhat athletic and I think he'll be servicable.
Apparently despite not playing much, he still gets hurt a lot.
So he's got that going for him.
: )
But he's tall so he keeps getting contracts. After every disclaimer about him you always see, but he's tall.
tis true
