Promise and reality

["R. Bentz Kirby" <bocelts@usit.net>]

Walker has a lot of promise and has shown signs of brilliance.  But he
lacks the consistancy to be considered a "great" player.  I don't think
he has a concept of leadership on the level that Bird, Magic, Jordan,
etc. have shown because he is too immature.  But one line of Michael's
post caught my eye:

I thought to myself, if Bird was still in his prime and playing against
AW, who do you think would get the rebound that made the difference in
the game.  Answer:  Bird.  Why, determination to win, not to have his
ego stroked.  Guaranteed, Bird would get to the ball before Walker.
