    Thanks for the kind words; Gene. Interesting that the much maligned (by me) Mark Cofman, reported yesterday that the C's will not try to sign El-Amin, immediately. Thus, contradicting what Leo and Jimmy told me. While I was out chasing the lackeys, "Hash" was out courting the king. Did he get the real scoop? We'll see.
    As far as Palacio, his best play came with El-Amin on the floor handling the ball. Even with Khalid on the bench it was Joe Johnson who ran the offense, although either Milt or El-Amin or Forte guarded the other teams point, until they were forced to play two point guards together, as well.
    With Johnson's size at 6'8", he could become a monster point guard, which would allow Forte or Palacio to play alongside and not suffer a height disadvantage on defense.
