RE: Peter May TSN Celtics Report

I would not make this move, Williams may not be worth Battie straight up, 
let alone Barros.  Although I have not been a big Barros fan, but Dana 
played very well this year and can be an excellent scoring sixth man off 
the bench, and even played point better than Anderson this year.  I still 
see Mercer & Anderson going,  if we can move him, (still dreaming of Payton 
forcing a trade) Battie could go for Lorenzen Wright.    The key question 
is is Antoine better suited for the 3 or 4 spot ? Not the physical player 
for the 4, but not quick enough for the 3.   Mercer will probably ask too 
much so will probably be moved. If  a Baron Davis is available could he go 
for a high draft pick ?  I have heard Pitino say we don't need any more 
youth, but it may be batter to teach the youth than to teach an unwilling 
old dog new tricks.


Whoever has the early exit out of Miami & New York will look to make some 
moves.  I think Riley has been disappointed in Hardaway lately ?
