Was Cecil Right?

[Dan Forant <dforant1@nycap.rr.com>]

It's looking more and more like Cecil was and is correct about the Celts.
Welcome to Boston Seattle. 4 wins in a row, 5 of last 6. Have the Celts
arrived? Don't know yet but they are sniffing it. They are playing hard
aggressive, enthusiastic ball. Everybody's pounding and crashing the
boards. 60 boards is a lot of rebounds. Fortson got 13 in just 17 minutes. 

All of a sudden the ball is getting moved around, the open man is receiving
the ball and making shots. Cheaney, Williams and Adrian out, and we play
more cohesively, Pitino will have to think this one over. I mean it was
smooth from beginning to end. McCarty gives us lots of energetic stuff out
of nowhere and yet gets 5 pts., 3 boards and 4 assists. 

Overton played some excellent minutes. He should have been playing more in
my opinion.

Pierce may be the best 2 guard around the boards defensively and
offensively in the league. 

Adrian is out shooting but nowhere near ready. 

I have to hand it to ya Cecil. You were firm in your resolve. I'm glad your
were right.
