If you want to talk about Kenny's performance (or possible lack thereof) 
in previous seasons, or in the season to come, then I'm right there with 
you.  If you want to criticize his on-court behavior, I'd probably agree 
with you.  Kenny's got a good chance to underperform in a big way next 
year, that I will not deny, but to criticize him for not giving enough to 
charity is unseemly at best and probably just a tad bit "holier-than-thou.
"  I noticed Mark seemed to reconsider the post in a subsequent post -- 
good for him, I say.

I saw the article; Kenny spouting off is nothing new, though I'm certainly 
tired of the "selling the car during the lockout" thing.  Look, I'm just 
waiting for Kenny to come off the books -- I'd think Milt (or someone else)
  will become the starter at some point this year, because Kenny will be 
injured or will stink, or both, like last year.  On the other hand, Kenny 
might perform well -- I hope so, but I won't hold my breath either.
