Shows you the quality of that 15-win Celtic team! :)

Hey, I watched Earl for four years at Iowa. The guy has minimal skills. He
did well in the Big Ten because the league had terrible centers during his
tenure. He physically overpowered a bunch of chumps. I cringed when the C's
drafted him. Big mistake. He'll never be more than a 12th man in the NBA,
if that.
