Re: slightly different three way deal



Why do we want Penny?   Because he has been perenial first-team all-NBA
player since his second year in the NBA...  Because he has played point
guard, not shooting guard, in every one of his NBA seasons before this year.
Because he can dominate in virtually every aspect of the game...  Because he
would fit perfectly into Pitino's system...  I could ramble on, but I think
I have made my point.   If Pitino can get Penny, the Celtics not only make
the playoffs this season, but they have a chance at advancing to the second
round as well.

now why the hell do we want penny, who basically plays the same position
as mercer? unless if we move ron over to the 3 spot, and walter comes off
the bench. penny is also a whiner.
