re Walker = Pathetic

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

Can't get upset over 1 game. Sure we should have won, but nothing is a
given. When Walker or Pierce have an off nite look out. I mentioned the law
of averages in another post. Pierce had an off game. He's human. I only
listened to the 1st half. Thought the Celts had control of things. Like I
always said, it's the last 5 minutes that count. Only problem I see with the
box is a we got out rebounded by 14. As for the Knicks, watch out. New
coach, new season.
