Re: [Celtics' Stuff RE: Sports Guy on the Celtics

Well we had a guy who had some promise at the PG position but he was not
used to playing the position and has taken some time to learn his craft.  As
I type this message, as a starter, he is averaging 16ppg and 6apg.  He also
plays better D than Kenny could ever hope to play.

His name is Chauncey Billups.  Perhaps we will make a similar mistake with
Forte.
