re: Back on the Bandwagon
I for one never left. Heck if I didn't jump off during the Brett Szabo
era I'm here for good ;-)

It strikes me that Jiri has the chance to be to this year's Celts what
Jason Williams was to the Kings in 1998-99. Sacramento plays
beautiful, passing, cutting basketball and the arrival of Jason
Williams -- whose flair for passing (among other things) -- is
generally credited with developing their style. Of course they had the
players to do it with -- Webber and Divac are two of the best passing
big men in the game -- but I think JWill provided the spark.
It certainly appears that Jiri is doing that now for us -- and i
couldn't be happier as I wait for "Snake-Grip Round 1"!
Marc Stein agrees by calling out Jiri (and PP) while awarding the C's
the "Team of the Week"
