I don't feel it's prudent to compare how many techs Toine has with 
anybody.  I feel they hurt the team.  That's my opinion, not a personal 
attack on him.  Just because Malone is a jerk at times, albeit a great 
player, doesn't mean that we should be making comparisons.  Toine would 
need to have a tad more longevity in the league before any such 
comparison should be made.  I personally hope he's with the Celtics long 
enough to eventually make them.

And what's with this Celtics Pride 90's Style stuff?  If player choose to 
show a certain swagger, they should be able to back it up IMHO.  This 
team, though improved over last year, is definitely not in swaggering 
position yet, and even if they were, I'm not sure that it should be done 
so overtly.  There's a difference between Red lighting up a stogie and 
Antoine wiggling and jumping on tables.  

I'm glad he's enthusiastic enough and all, but to me, it backfires by 
giving the opposition fodder for retribution.  
Remember what Jordan said after the Celtics beat them in the first game.
