Re: We're Better

Right on, Dan.  There's now so much more balance to the team.  There's a 
dirty work type starter, instead of four prima donnas and V.  There's 
scoring on the bench.  Not only are they a better team now, they're getting 
what should be a very good pick, too.  Anybody out there still think the 
Dallas trade was good?

Potential problems?  Well, Pierce is going to have to make a pretty big 
adjustment, but God, he sure shoots well enough for the position.  And, if 
he has problems there, there's not many other options with Minor out and 
Mercer gone.  If Pierce has problems, there's just too many forwards on the 
team.

After thinking about it, I think it will help Walker.  People are saying 
he's best in the low post, but he's not.  He always looks like he's forcing 
it there.  Now he'll have to be a driver and slasher, and I think that will 
suit him just fine.  Time to start working on that "Scottie Pippen type 
body", though.

I don't know a thing about Fortson, but you guys have me pretty psyched.  A 
rebounding stud.  It's just what we wanted last year.  Popeye, only better.  
Sounds so much like Barkley, doesn't he?  What's his offensive game like?

Eric Williams?  Certainly better than McCarty coming off the bench at sf.  
And, is Denver paying half his salary?  Has that been confirmed?

I'm giddy.

Jim
