Re: Ray, take 2!



Just as you would chide me not to get too carried away with the
pre-season
or one lost, I say, don't go too overboard with one victory over a team
that didn't take the Celtics too seriously. Let them win four or five in 
a row against quality teams or even average clubs, and I'll then believe 
they can make the playoffs.
