chris bosh is a near 20 and 10 player. and those are not projected stats per 48 or 40 minutes and he didn't do this in the california penal league.
yet this all gets pushed aside because some white guy can run faster or jump higher

some people believe because a guy is the nba's best practice player, he will be the best player ever
"potential' is highly overrated and misused in this forum.

He is bigger, longer and tronger than Bosh (7'1, 260 versus 6'11, 235),
plus he has a better frame. They're about the same in the athleticism department, although I would call Darko a bit quicker (and he trully can run like a deer, considering we are talking about a white 7-footer).
From what I have seen from Darko, he has some very effective post moves and he could be outstanding in that department in a couple of years. Mechanics of his shot are better than Bosh's, as is his range.
Defensively, Darko is beast when it comes to blocks, but he still gets pushed out of the position when he tries to rebound. He also tries too much on that side of the court, trying to block pump fakes and his man-to-man D is still something left to be desired. My point is, Darko DOES have a lot more potential than Bosh, although he (CB) is likely to become a perennial all-star. Perhaps as soon as this year. His destiny is to become a poor man's KG. (Off-off topic - I would take Dwight Howard over these two anytime.)
