Re: playing favorites too much
I agree 100%. There deserves to be repercussions for games like
the one on Sunday. I'd like to see the Celtic's go with the following
lineup in their next game:
C - VP
PF - Battie
SF - Minor
SG - Mercer
PG - Anderson
Just for one game, to let Walker and everyone know that this
terrible play is unacceptable. For the season, Walker is 41% from the
field and 47% from the line. Something has to be done to wake him up.
Ron Harper's comments were right on.
