Re: Wow



Since Pitino slobbers all over the Kentucky players,
it's hard to believe he would deal one of them.
Although, if Walker spends the rest of the season being
booed, he could be a Fleet Center basket case and in need
of a mercy trade.  

So I guess Pierce and Anderson are on the outs, but I
don't see either one ending up in Cleveland.  Pitino will
move Walker over to SF, and deal Pierce for a 4.  Anderson
might end up in Denver for a disgruntled Nick Van Exel as
part of a sign and trade deal.

Also, with the way the C's are playing, and Pitino
apparently in full Tank mode {No changes in the starting
lineup planned}, don't rule out the C's having their
own lottery pick this year.
