Chicago Sun-Times on Herren



Thanks to Bill Simmons (www.sportsguy.net) for finding this:

Poor man's Jason

Boston Celtics coach Rick Pitino calls second-year guard Chris Herren a poor man's Jason Williams. But Pitino might have an even better player than the Sacramento Kings' exciting point guard.

Herren plays under control more than Williams and is a better shooter. Herren came off the bench Friday to score 17 points in 19 minutes on 5-for-9 shooting, including 3-for-5 from three-point range. He also had a game-high seven assists.

Some have suggested the Celtics' starting point guard, Kenny Anderson, better beware of former Bull Randy Brown taking his job. But now both of those guys have to contend with Herren.
