	This is "truth." Our situation at center and Wallace's lack of 
enthusiasm for Songilia, reminds me of last summer at Shaw's, when I was 
touting Jaques Vaughn, to Jimmy O'Brien, who told me that we were three 
deep at point guard. "Do you mean; Milt Palacio, Randy Brown and Kenny 
Anderson (this was before Kenny spent the summer at Lourdes)?" Head in 
sand, or just playing close to the vest?	
	For whoever it was that questioned why I wrote that Wallace was 
kicking this kid in the balls, well, maybe it can't be construed as 
personal, but if you were just drafted into the NBA, arguably the 
biggest moment of your life, wouldn't you want a bit more of a welcome? 
A little inspiration perhaps? "Well you know we have roster problems, 
but we really love this kid and with our thin front court, if he shows 
us what we're looking for he'd be a welcome addition....yadda, 
yadda......just to give him a better feeling about the team and perhaps 
just more welcome.
	 I'll tell you, it would put my chin down to my knees, at least for 
a while and while I'd come back to try and show the "bastard" up, I'd 
really long for a chance to go to another team and "do it to em."
	Is Wallace playing the Harry Sinden to Jeremy Jacobs game?
