RE: Luc Longley

[John Lyell <Jlyell@concentric.net>]

I would not call Luc Longley a major contributor on the Bulls team just a 
man in the middle that could easily be Will Perdue, Scott Williams, Brian 
Williams, Bill Cartwright, etc.  Jordan, Rodman, Pippen and the Paxsons, 
Kerrs &  Armstrong have been the major contributors. From memory Brian 
Williams played better last year in the playoffs.   Longley was a top 5 
pick with Minnesota ? that never really lived up to his draft status. 
Agreed a decent center but nothing spectacular, and not the physical shot 
blocker we need.  And I don't see him fitting in the Celtics running game.

I forgot to mention that seeing that most of you guys want to get rid of
all the old guys, Luc would be a good player and role model for the
younger guys on the team. He has been a major contributer (not a 9th to
12th man!) on 2 championship teams.
