< However the foul problems don't help and this is where Baker is the 
problem.  Most of his fouls seemed to be reach in's as players drove by 
him or grabs on players cutting without the ball.  That's just plain lazy 
and the fault has to lay with Baker there. > - Tammo

Nicely done, Tammo -  many excellent points including the above. 
Aside from Obiebs stubborn refusal to blend Bakerbs skills into our 
starting unit, easy-going, slow-learner Baker has yet to show 
intelligence either on or off the court. Character, character, character.  
I would rather root for a team of heady Fred Hoibergs and draft one 
solid Shane Battier in lieu of two or three athletic, future upside, 
72 IQ hot dogs.  Okay - so I get off on being one of a dozen fans doing 
the wave for Princeton in their boring little gymnasium vs. being a 
wide-eyed spectator at the high-tech, 4th of July fireworks 
introduction of the latest Las Vegas/Nevada bball parolees. And this 
is despite the background of the fun Little Green Man slot machine
which happily eats my remaining drachmas left over from the stock 
market, and the soothing dancing Nessun Dorma fountains at the Bellagio 
which I love so much. 

Also, Tammo, your analysis of Wolko looking pretty average is 
probably pretty accurate despite my exuberance over finally seeing 
one of our big men actually rebounding.  His reward for 7 rebounds in 
14 minutes against the Nets... a DNP from Obie last night despite our 
soon-to-be-released practice players being granted a couple of 
thanks Obie minutes each.  

Finally, with SG Delk as our starting PG and feisty SG SWill as his 
backup, where are point forward Walkerbs pick-up-the-slack assists 
in these practice games?  Has AW relinquished this responsibility to 
Pierce along with scoring and rebounding? 

Am off to eat a cookie... along with a stiff Sapphire martini.
