Jackie Mac from another board



Didn't hear it myself, but someone posted this to another Celtics board.
Some interesting stuff, especially the much speculated, seemingly confirmed
rift between Wallace and Obie. --- Mark


Jackie MacMullen was on 1510 The Zone yesterday afternoon and was discussing
the Baker fiasco and the ramifications on the Celtics' future...she said
some very surprising things including:

*Obie and Wallace not seeing much eye-to-eye nowadays - they read into the
fact of when the Celtics recently obtained Mark Blount, Obie was asked about
the trade and quipped: "I'm sure Chris (Wallace) studied a lot of film on
him"

*Wallace may very well not be here next season - he took a huge risk and it
obviously blew up in his face terribly...

*Mark Bryant - a long time veteran saying that the Celtic defensive system
is the "most difficult system to learn"

*The despise for Paul Gaston for really screwing up this team after last
season by not re-signing Rogers, Strickland, and keeping Anderson

*Wallace's overrated ability of evaluating talent for the draft

*Pointing out that regardless of Vin's mental state or his dependency on
alcohol it is merely a "cop out" since there are players in every league in
every sport that battle the same issues, but continue to perform on a high
level, unlike Vin
