CELTS THOUGHTS

[<hartleyo@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

GOOD EFFORT TONIGHT, BUT THEY ARE STILL THE DUMBEST TEAM AROUND.  DOWN THE
STRETCH, THEY GOTTA SHOOT THREES (0 FOR 7)  WHEN THEY HAVE THE LEAD, DID NOT
SCORE OVER THE LAST 4 MINUTES OR SO. WHAT BOTHERS ME MOST IS NOT SO MUCH THE
LACK OF TALENT IN KEY POSITION, BUT JUST BEING MENTAL MIDGETS WHEN THEY HAVE A
GAME WON.

BREMER AND BROWN LOOKED PRETTY GOOD TONIGHT AND HOPE THEY GET A LOT MORE
PLAYING TIME, SO WE CAN SEE WHAT THEY GOT OR HAVEN'T GOT.

NO DELK, NO WILLIAMS - DEEP DOODOO FOR NO OTHER REASON, BUT SCORING CHANCES,
IF THEY DONT GET BACK SOON.

IMO THERE ARE 7  TEAMS THAT WILL MAKE THE PLAYOFFS IN THE EAST; NETS, PISTONS,
PACERS, BULLETS, MAGIC, HORNETS, SIXERS, LEAVING THE CELTICS AND BUCKS
FIGHTING FOR THE 8th SPOT. AS OF TODAY THE CELTICS ARE ONLY 4 AHEAD OF THE
BUCKS  IN THE LOSS COLUMN. I THINK 41 WINS MAKE THE PLAYOFFS.

MY PREDICTION, NEXT 23 GAMES  9 WINS / 14 LOSSES AT BEST IN MY OPINION. I HOPE
I AM WRONG.

ANY BODY HAVE ANY THOUGHTS OUT THERE OR ARE YOU ALL GONNA KEEP CRYING OVER
HAVING  (NO POINT GUARD) (REBOUNDER) OR BLAMING OBIE OR WALLACE FOR
EVERYTHING.
THE TRUTH OF THE MATTER IS WE ARE STUCK WITH OBIE AND WALLACE AT LEAST FOR
THIS YEAR, SO LETS JUST  GET OVER IT AND HOPE FOR THE BEST.
