If he doesn't want to put his money in a bank

that’s his business. I just wish he was a little better at making bank shots.

I love Darko...

god I wish he was good at basketball, because he seems like such a fun character to root for.

That's why he doesn't make shots.

Afraid to deposit!

Actually

I suspect he does use a bank. The “no bank” thing is a rumor he started to increase break-ins at his Serbian fortress where he harvests and resells the organs of burglars.

Yo ho ho and a FirstRow stream!

I'm interested to know

If he is still that way. Casey was his teammate 5 years ago, seems a long time ago to make too much of this story, but certainly adds to the aura of the man we know as Darko!

I thought this meant,

that he never did a bank shot. Seriously.

He doesn't use them...

He doesn’t use them because he can’t hit them – both real-life banks and bank shots. Or, maybe he tried to hit a real-life bank, mixing it up with a bank shot, and that is why he doesn’t trust them… his hand still hurts from his “bank shot.”

Darko is a legend

So he doesn’t talk much and he doesn’t trust banks. I wonder how he gets his salary? In cash? The postman brings him?

He also could’ve lied. He doesn’t talk much, but when he talks, he lies. How badass is that?

The story says that Casey didn't necessary believe him.

Just think how fun crazy Darko would be if he could play consistently good basketball.

Ok, ill stand up in defense of my countryman:

He saves his money under the bed and send it to Serbia by pigeons in small amounts for this: Once his wife read an article about some children in Serbia suffering from some rare disease and who needed the money for some expensive medical treatment abroad. Darko just called journalist to give him those children parents contact. Phone them and said that he will pay for all treatments and for all children (5 -7 of them i can’t remember). Each treatment costs about 150.000 dollars (per group i think, not per child)… He is wierd, i know….

Wow, that's pretty cool

But what about carrier pigeons?

If I'm pissing you off its probably sarcasm

by CoffeeJanitor on Feb 3, 2012 3:32 PM CST up reply actions  

i tried to be ironic about Darko not using the banks

and comments about that how he uses his money, but, my English is not very good :-)
