Prediction

["Christopher J. Littlefield" <cjlitt@erols.com>]

Mercer gone for two games minimum (with MRI today.  Cross your fingers). 

Two impressive wins over what could be a horrible team, thus seriously
inflating the value of the team.

Kenny's fragile knees. 

Big hole in the middle.  

Huge and tough Eastern conference, with 10 legit playoff-contending
teams

I say 20 wins and no playoffs, and hope I am wrong like I was last
year.  

But, if Pierce is as competitive against real competition as he was 
against the Raptors, ROY
