Re: position wanted



In reply to all the discussion about Walker and Williams true postions.

It really doesn't matter what we call them, or what the Celtics call
them.  If opposing teams continue to defend Walker with the other teams
small forward, and Williams with their power forward, our two forwards'
strengths are negated.

The only way Williams will become a small forward is to develop a
consitent outside shot, thus forcing a quicker player to defend him and
stop his shot.

The only way Walker will become a power forward is to develop the
necessary strength and post moves to overpower smaller people, thus
forcing other teams to play him with their power forward.

I hope that both of these players work hard in the off season to develop
these qualities.  (Walkers bulking up may take a while longer, but he
can start.)  If they do we could have a great forward tandum for years
to come.
