Hey all - check out the lede in a story my paper ran

NON-AMERICAN POPULATION IN NBA SWELLS

So, the Warriors' Antawn Jamison was watching an
exhibition game between Minnesota and Boston on TV
last month. And there was this Boston Celtics big man
who caught his eye. The fellow was holding his own
against Kevin Garnett. Posting up. Burying
three-pointers. Got all-around game.

Jamison started wondering, ``Who the hell is this
guy?''

Now, I'm happy to see that Obie is apparently living
up to his preseason promise to sit players who don't
defend and rebound. On the other hand, why give so
much exhibition time to Bruno if you're not going to
play him in the (admitedly, early) regular season? For
that matter, why sign a guy with Sundov's glaring
rebounding deficiencies, then complain that he doesn't
rebound? That's like hiring Vinnie Johnson to be your
defensive specialist.
