I don't know his intentions, only his words.  He's been quoted in the Boston
papers that he wasn't going to play Antoine and Paul 40 minutes per game
this season because they were worn out for the playoffs.

Not too many ways to spin that, Tammo.  Then again, some folks believe that
a lb of feathers weighs more than a lb of lead.  Guess I'll just have to
"get over it", right?

Or is it just another one of JB's "bad days"?
