Or you could look at this from the other side, if SA have a worse
record than us, we can still win the lottery.

=46rom what I hear Duncan is not that sort of person at all.  Duncan is
the sort of person who stays in school, and works hard every night
he's on court even though he could be earning millions right now in
the NBA.

He is also not arrogant like Kobe, instead he is much more modest.
He's less flashy but has a great work ethic and it would be a great
loss if the Celtics don't get a chance to pick him.
