I still think we should have made a move for Christie in the offseason . He
has good size athleticism and is a veteran. He is a great fit at the 3 and
can play the point also. Does anyone really want to start over again with
draft picks ?  Will next years crop be any better than this years or the
Mercer/Billups/Battie draft ?
