He made the mistake of trying to coach them a certain way. You know...I
have to go to work and need to be brief, but as Cousy said yesterday
O'Brien has loosened the reins on Walker. That's a coaching decision.
Reining him in is a coaching decision. If Walker had been traded or if he
was placed on the disabled list and this team immediately went 10-5 every
post would on this list would start with something like, "Thank God the
cancer is gone."

I'm late but...."Thank God the cancer is gone."

Damn...if only Walker could've become a star the way Pitino wanted him to
I'd be so much happier.
