He said some pretty good things about Kenny...what did he say that was 
disloyal?
And..he might be right about Baker. Sure it would be nice if he could start 
but I wouldn't count on it. 

The guy should only start if he can play. Screw his bloody "confidence." 
Confidence comes from playing well...and working hard. Thats all he needs to 
do to get it back

And for those who say I am down on the Celtics and should cheer the Baker 
trade..
I say the Celts deserve scorn. 

I don't mind if the management makes pretty good moves...and things just 
don't work out..but if a team drops the ball then you should hold them 
accountable.

The Celtics had Pierce Walker Battie and Kenny with his contract about to 
expire...along with four high draft pics.. two years ago. They were poised to 
go somewhere. Instead they have blown it. They have drafted players who can't 
play...and traded draft pics for the very short term. They have turned 
another asset...
Kenny and his contract into a washed up Vin Baker who couldn't make it on a 
small low post challenged Seattle team. Bleh.

I am sick. These kind of opportunities only happen once a decade... at best. 
The Red Sox might screw up..but at least they give themselves a 
chance...thats more then I can say for the cheap Celtics. They are right up 
there with the Bruins.
