Re: Bart Hubbuch: C's Finish 14th in East
In a message dated 10/31/99 8:23:57 AM Eastern Standard Time,
wayray@ix.netcom.com forwards us this tripe:
<< * KEY ADDITIONS: Underrated forward-center Danny Fortson was a nice pickup
from Denver in the Ron Mercer trade, and swingman Calbert Cheaney is a
capable scorer in the right situation. Even so, the Celtics needed to do a
lot more in the
off-season if they hope to break out of their recent free fall.
* KEY SUBTRACTIONS: Trading Mercer to the Nuggets because the Celtics didn't
want to meet his asking price remains something of a head-scratcher.
Mercer's not a superstar, but Pitino needs to keep as many talented pieces in
place as possible. You get the feeling the Celtics aren't as dedicated to
winning as they once were. >>
How the hell can this writer first say that adding Fortson was a "nice
pickup" and then turn around and call the deal a "head-scratcher". Maybe he
has lice.
Another thing - l only wish we were trying to breakout of a recent free fall!
I can't wait until we prove all these morons wrong!
