re-Walker on the block

[Dan <dforant1@nycap.rr.com>]

No way can they trade Walker for Pippen. Walker is young and healthy.
Remember what he did in the 4th quarter of the Lakers game. Pippen, is on
his way down. His injuries are starting to pile up. So we have to live with
a little ego. I remember Bird had one too. Walker is the backbone of this
team.
