Re: Celtics Need To Get In On This Wallace Action

Walker and Battie for Rasheed? Who would then play center for us?
Blount? 

I like Tony Battie. ''Mr. Invisible'' is underrated because he has never 
averaged more than 25 mpg, 1.5 bpg, 8.3 ppg, 6.5 rpg.  Yet he has selflessly 
served as our anchor in the Harter defense, quietly covering the sins of 
our other defenders. And if Obie would ever design even two plays for 
Tony, he could easily be our third scorer, averaging double figures. 

Is it Walker's shortcomings as a ''classic'' PF that have skewed our
judgment of Battie's worth?

How many drafts and how many of YOUR erroneous draft/trade ideas 
have passed since then? 1000? 2000? 3000? Sometimes it just takes 
a WayRay to stimulate these boards during the deadest Celt news 
period of the season when even the reporters are all on vacation.
