		Undoubtedly a lot of this comes from his days in Sacramento, where playing with teammates like Divac, Miller, and Webber meant that big men were often expected to be the facilitators of the offense.
		When Songaila was signed I knew he could score and had a reputation as a hustle player (if not great defender), but had no idea he could help the offense overall like this.
		Scott Skiles attributed Darius' slow start to not being in shape at the start of the season, due to his Free Agent status keeping him from working out.

		In the Kings first outing of the post-Webber era, Songaila poured in a career-high 23 points on scorching 10-14 shooting to go along with a season-high 12 rebounds and three assists.
		In fact, while he's yet to find a groove this season (11.3 points and 6.6 rebounds), Thomas was very useful a year ago when he averaged a double-double (14 and 10), added a steal per night, and shot 47 percent from the floor.
		That said, we remain optimistic about Songaila's hold on the minutes at power forward, primarily because he has an inherent advantage over Thomas due to his familiarity with the Kings' offense.

		I think if Darius works on his core strength and gets better upper body muscle tone, he'll be able to finish in traffic more often.
		I tend to agree that Darius is a GREAt team players and have noted several times that what he does out there is so subtle you realy have to look for his play to apprecite it.
		Fortunalty for Darius and the Kings BECEAUSE of the NBA's love for jumpers Kenny makes much better trade bait than Darius so I suspect Darius will remain a King for some time while Kenny will for the rest of his tenure be on th eblocks so to speak.
