Re: "Trader Rick" scares Josh

[jmb@interactive.net (Jonathan Brainin)]

There's really no need for Rick to say anything.  Antoine to Indy
for Dale Davis is as much a pipedream as any of the perpetual
rumors of "insert Celtic player/s here" for Mashburn trades.  It's
old news being rehashed by a bunch of "reporters" who have no 
more credentials than anyone on this lest.  

If Antoine is traded, I guarantee that it will be in a deal that we have 
heard nothing about yet.  None of the major trades made by Pitino
were preceded by more than 24 hours notice in the press.  Most
seemed to come totally out of the blue.  

I suspect that we've seen the major trade for this season.  Barring
a deal that we just can't refuse (along the lines of Duncan for Pervis
and Dana) I think the only additions we'll see the rest of this year
will be a couple of free agent signings.
