RE: Geiger

[John Lyell <Jlyell@concentric.net>]

I read some interesting things in an Article by Marc Heisler in the L.A. 
Times.  He stated most G.M's stated that at one time Pitino had shopped 
 everyone except Antoine Walker in various deals, and when Walker let slip 
that he did not know why he should not get what Garnett got, Pitino then 
began shopping him also.  He also mentioned that for a favor on the 
Anderson deal for David Falk, Geiger another Falk client, might end up in 
Boston.


ESPN also did a piece on players second year stats and compared various 
players like Anderson, Shaq, Mourning, Robinson, etc and showed how their 
stats in their second year were very comparable to their yearly averages 
over 5-7 years.
