Pitino's Comments

[ChomS@tiac.net (Steve Chomicz)]

This loss hurt and i hope Heinsohn gave it to ref Terry Durham after
the game as he said he would.  The calls were ridiculous.

Pitino, in the press conference after the game said the playoffs are
now out of reach.  They are going to fight for each game but as a
realist, he doesn't see the celts in the playoffs.  He said, with
Kenny out they have no organized offensive game.  Its one on one ball
using motion 1, motion 2, motion 3 plays.  He said he is not going to
play KA because of his knees and KA's not ready yet physically to take
the pitino abuse.  Pitino does not want to physically ruin anything
for KA for next season.

Pitino also commented that the NBA players stand around to much on the
court.  Its a bad habit and he is not going to allow it on the C's.
Motion is th e key to the game.  If you're standing you don't get ball
movement. No ball movement no shot opportunities.
