"Won" favorite number of newest Celtic Anderson

      Kenny Anderson proved why he was such a hot commodity in this
      week's flurry of NBA trades as the newly-acquired Celtic led
      Boston to its first win in Seattle in more than seven years with
      a 106-96 win over the SuperSonics. Anderson, who was picked up
      from the Toronto Raptors in a seven-player deal Wednesday, scored
      19 points on 7-of-15 shooting in his Boston debut and the Celtics
      beat Seattle at home for the first time since Dec. 27, 1991. The
      SuperSonics, who hold the league's best record at 40-13, lost for
      only the fourth time this season at Key Arena. Vin Baker had 25
      points and 10 rebounds and Gary Payton added 23 and 10 assists
      for the SuperSonics, who lost for the first time in 11 games
      against Eastern Conference opponents. Anderson reflected on all
      the numbers talk for contract terms, dollar amounts, minutes
      played and points scored flying around the league this week by
      saying, "Numbers are fine, but we beat the best team in the NBA."

Also interesting that Gugliotta is now in the injured list.
Incidentally, so is Ron Seikally.
