Darko not playing isn't the real tradegy. It's the fact you could have any of that draft class's studs besides Lebron and you don't.

I have discussed this numerous times with my friends. We seriously doubt if Bosh would have ever gotten off the bench under Larry Brown either. Carmelo, maybe 10 mpg his first year. We saw how Larry used LBJ, Melo, and Wade in Athens.
The real question, however, is this. Would they have whined and pouted a la Darko, or would they have sat back, bit their tongue, learned the ropes, and improved tremendously, ready to step in at any time, a la Philip Rivers (sorry for the sports x-post).
