Mmm, interesting how the difference is even more clear cut for the captains 
than for the team as a whole. Intuitively and from watching the games you'd 
figure as much, but interesting to see it verified. Of course it also 
points out the fact that there **has** to be someone else scoring too when 
they win for those guys to get the extra assists. A fair number of Walker's 
may be passes to Pierce, but I'm pretty sure the reverse is not true.

This nudged me to finally go back and put up files for the first few 
boxscores, that were missing. So, if anyone else wants to play, the season 
to date is all there in excel spreadsheets. If anyone on the IGTC list but 
not on the Yahoo group wants them and can't get at the files on the site, 
yell offlist.
