Another scorer

[Ellie Cutler <ellie@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Remember Josip Sesar, the Croatian guard we picked up in the 2nd round of 
the 2000 draft?  A clip about him says "One of the top scorers in the 
Croatian League for the past four seasons. Changed his role in the last 
season to become more of a point guard, setting career-high in assists. A 
dangerous three-point shooter who has shot over 40 percent from three-point 
range in three of past four seasons."

Dunno when the Cs are planning to bring him over here - he's 24 this year.

I think Kedrick will eventually be an offensive force, but that's looking 
at least 2 years down the line.  Forte, I have no idea what his game is.

As for the rebounder, wouldn't it be nice to find an Aaron Williams type 
somewhere?

The team did a *great* job this year. Who'd have thought they'd be 3 rounds 
into the playoffs?!!  EWill's bum finger has been a huge factor in this 
series. I wouldn't be surprised if Pierce was tired by now - they're not 
used to 1) playing this late 2) playing playoff basketball - much more 
physical and intense. I think that's affecting his shooting. I still give 
them half a chance to beat the Nets, though.
