Re: Stats

One more surprising stat.

Ron Mercer needs to attempt just 22 more shots than Antoine Walker
over the next 14 games in order to finish the season as the Celtics'
leading shot taker (average per game).

Can you say "contract extension year"?

I think you were pretty optimistic in most of your wishes, though.  Obviously, the one stat that could make us all feel good (except maybe Dan) would be wins.  If they can win 9 of their last 14 they would finish 22-28.  Well below what I thought at the start of the season, but it would be enough for me now.  7-7 would give 20 wins, and just about give me something to hope for.  Anything less that that, and it's going to be a long summer.
