 On the bright side, the Celtics have won 3 of 4. And although those wins have
 come against some of the weakest teams in the league, we've shown this season
 we're more than capable of losing to such teams, so I'll take all the W's I
 can get.

I also think that the Celtics should try to get Bill Russel as a coach or 
something on the team to help with young player development, and help 
allround.-Tony
