RE: Lakers Acquire Rice For Johnson and Campbell

["Odegaard, Greg M." <GMOdegaa@rmc.com>]

Now Mr. Ghost Sir, I appreciate your consideration of this trade and the
possible impact on this team, yada yada, but please do not discount the
overriding reality of any Faker team with the new 3-headed monster of
Clank-Fu/Denny/Kobe.  They are by far the most talented team in the league,
but do we need to go into a long discussion of talent not always winning the
title?  Factors like teamwork (hello Antoine) come into play, and the Jazz,
Blazers, and Rockets are head and shoulders above this "team" in this
critical area.  As I said before, hell yes I will give them credit for
winning a title in the Post-MJ era, as I would the Blazers when they win it
this July, but do not put any proverbial cart before the trophy horse.
Otherwise I would assume you are just a Fakerfan hiding out on our list, and
doing a great service to forward great articles, like you did as Witchcraft
and WayRay.

Of course my certifiable bias and distaste for the Fakers will allow me to
think any other way, but if I can become the biggest Blazer fan on this
list, anything is possible in the new Millennium.

Maybe Charlotte is going to throw in Campbell with Wesley for the deal
before mentioned.  I hip to that,
Greg

It's the start of a new dynasty... Meanwhile on the
opposite coast, Rick Pitino bemoans the fact that he
has a difficult team to coach.  

I'm listening to WEEI and Glen Ordway is blasting Pitino,
for commenting that he has a difficult team to coach.  Ordway
mentioned that Pitino is responsible for it being a difficult
team since he forsook veterans for rookies. Ordway, also
said Toni Battie can't play.  Perhaps an accurate description.
Well, he'll be gone at the end of next season, if not
sooner.
