RE: Trade Kenny to LA Clippers

We had a pretty aggressive D last year & it did not win us many games.  You
need a good mix of both, but some people that can come through in the
clutch. I am not sure we have the veteran leadership.

Offense wins games, Defense wins CHAMPIONSHIPS!  Usually every year the
best defensive team in the league will win the championship on any level.
 The offense will have bad nights because of missed layups, jumpers, and
free throws etc..  However, the defense is one constant that can be good
every night.
