Good big men are hard to find, he could work out well, after all the Celts
have a few years to strenghten their team. Kandi will have time to learn.
Swingmen are a dime a dozen. I like the deal, but think the Clippers can do
better than Pierce and a few bench players. I hope we get him. Nothing like
youth.
