Re: Celtics/Bulls matchup problems



Count me as a believer that McHale would thoroughly abuse Rodman on the
blocks.  There was nobody who could defend his assortment of moves when he
got t the ball there.  And the way the refs like to whistle him especially
after headbutting on of their frat boys, he'd foul out i the first half.
