Re: Celtics benefit from three-way deal

[Warwick <giants@eisa.net.au>]

I was thinking about what the Celtics would get if they traded Kenny

I presume the Knicks would be a team that would be interested and their
dying for Marbury who wont be going there [he has said that he doesn't want
to but would rather stay in Minn.]....

I'd suggest Marcus Camby, but I wouldn't have any clue on what the C's
could get for him....
