	I couldn't agree more. Ruben Patterson and Shammond Williams, yes.
But you don't go after vastly overpaid players who only play hard when the
the stars are aligned just so.

	You want players who will play hard whether the game is on national
TV or out in the back yard. Veteran role players who play hard every night
and always fill their role are what we need: players like Patterson, Tyrone
Hill, Scott Pollard, Bobby Jackson, Malik Rose, Derrick Mckey, Bryant Stith
and many others. With Walker and Pierce, we've shown we can score. What we
need now our some folks we can count on every game. Not the Vin Bakers of
the world.

	I wouldn't touch Vin Baker with a ten foot pole.  At his
	best he couldn't play defense; now, he's vying with Derrick
	Coleman for biggest cancer in the league -- without DC's
	talent or production.
