According to the ESPN announcers during pregame, Obie wan said Vin's "poor"
defense was a match up problem with the Mavs.  Hell it is a good thing he
didn't play him, they would have scored 150 on us and beat us by 50!!  What
an idiot!!  I guess if he had Shaq, he would sit him on the bench also
because someone might "foul him" and he can't hit his free throws!!!   Troy

This is from the Herald after the Hornets game:

Baker, Brown cited

Celtics coach Jim O'Brien decided to cancel practice here in the wake of Wednesday night's 93-83 win in New Orleans. Upon further review, the coach cited the early defensive contributions of Vin Baker and Kedrick Brown, saying he needs to get the latter more playing time.

``I really think that Vin is really coming defensively,'' O'Brien said. ``In the second quarter when we closed their 11-point lead to one, Vin and Kedrick were in and they were playing defense at a high level. We've got to find ways to get Kedrick on the court to develop him.''

*****************************************************************

If Vin is coming along, why didn't he play?? This situation seems weird. Would he have been torched any more than E. Williams was? Dirk was abusing him. Besides (as someone mentioned) Baker would have been covering Bradley..... Obie must have a really low opinion of Baker.
