RE: Next signing

[John Lyell <Jlyell@concentric.net>]

Either would be excellent additions to the Celtics, but the defensive big 
man is the major need .  Baker scored at will last night as will Shaq & Zo. 
 The teams we will probably be competing against in 3 years will probably 
be LA, Phoenix, Seattle, Miami, New Jersey ? Is it better to add a proven 
scorer like Baker or Guggliotta and know you will give up points at the 
center position ?  It has worked for Chicago , but you better get enough 
consistent production out of the others. I don't recall Pitino ever playing 
Anderson and Barros together in the backcourt last night.  I don't think we 
can we do this without getting posted up all night at the defensive end 
against the like of Payton, Bryant,  & Jason Kidd ?

I think Vin really likes it in Seattle and unless they have some big 
personnel changes, he will probably stay. but you never know.

sign them both, could we, at least not without including someone else in a 
package.  What's a mother to do?
