draft and next year

[gene kirkpatrick <gk_tyler@xxxxxxxxx>]

Okafur has committed to Connecticut for another year.  Blake, Maryland PG, is as good as Heinrich, IMCO (in my considerable opinion), but I'm rather sour on the Celtics and young players; I don't want my favorites to be wasted in Green land, so I won't get all hyped about the draft as long as we're ruled by the current regime.

I would like for us to keep Pierce, Battie, and Bremer and reconstruct from there.  Add Collison or Cook and Blake in the draft, trade Walker and others for a rebounder and a big, defensive guard, bring back Songaila, and pick up a few fallen oldies.  Give them an offense that allows a point guard to operate, highlight Pierce but not every time down the court, allow Battie to shoot, Bremer to drive, and is this too much of a fantasy to continue?  Probably.

Cheers, Gene
