RE: Spurs Are Really Outclassing The Celts

["John Lyell" <Jlyell@concentric.net>]

I have to agree with Way on this one. If we think we are really in the
middle to upper echelon, we should at least keep the game close. As far as
Holley on the VP trade,  can anyone really say that this trade has improved
us any at this point ?  I don't see VP doing anything Andrew didn't do, and
it cost us a first round pick that, even though the draft was weak, we could
have at least traded it for a veteran leader, which we still do not have.

Portland will be another test, last year Grant killed us.

I know they may be the best - Portland/Sacramento, etc. might
have something to say about that, but eventually the C's
have to beat teams like this. And when the C's C/PF positions
are so outclassed, then you question how much longer the
process will take and how good really are guys like Pot, Battie,
Walker, etc...
