RE: Former Celtic Montross (and Stackhouse)

I agree Ratliff & Mckie ?  You would have thought they could get more. 
   Hill and Stackhouse will be a versatile 2-3 combo.  I also hope we can 
move some bodies for a good veteran scorer.

Detroit hit a slam dunk with this trade, Aaron McKie & Theo Ratliff give me 
a
break. I understand that the celtics were also in running for stack's 
services
but looks like pitino did not want to part with next years first rounder.
On a different vein, the schedule now gets tougher and after sunday's game
against the Clips, I won't be surprised if we lose 7-8 games in a row. I 
just
hope that RP pulls of a block buster to improve the quality of players on 
this
team. - Mishra
