C's Roster

["Cecil Wright" <cecil@hfx.andara.com>]

Now that the dust has settled, I wonder who will start tomorrow in Seattle?  Does Kenny automatically start because he is an experienced veteran player?  Or does the start go to Tyus Edney, allowing Pitino to ease him in gradually?  I suspect it will take some time for Kenny to become familiar with the Celtic's defensive scheme (For those of us who believe in defense), therefore would it be in anyone's best interest for him to start?  If he doesn't start, will that cause him to feel embarrassed or humiliated?

 

I say if he doesn't start tomorrow, he'll definitely start on Sunday evening against his former team.

 

Dana Barros, by the way, is showing how wrong some of us can be in our predictions.  It wasn't long ago that some  were screaming for him to be traded for a slim jim.  We should be giving the man his due credit, for he has played very well over the past while.  Well enough to convince RP that he can do more than merely shoot the rock.  I will be man enough to admit I'm wrong if Anderson proves such.  I think Dana has proved that his critics have leaped to conclusions. 

 

While I'm at it, let's give DQ some props.  This guy couldn't hit the broad side of a barn early in the season, but, and I pray I don't jinx his butt, he has obviously been working heavily on his shot and his free throws.  If they all work at their weaknesses like him, there'd be little to complain about on this list.

 

Finally, I don't know about you, but when I see BB launch an outside jumper, I cringe.  He is currently a poor shooter that should shoot only as a last resort IMO.  I know he was perfect from the floor a few nights ago, but we all know that is not the norm.  I even feel bad for him on his free throw attempts because I believe he feels the pressure most when he's at the line.  Plays solid fundamental defense though and that means an awful lot to me.
