Re: What has Danny said in the past?

[Celtic4Hire@xxxxxxx]

Harlan asked Danny the question again and Danny replied that he thought they 
could use a penetrating point guard, one who could suck away defenders and 
open things up for PP....Note that he also said he thought Delk was not 
playing his proper position. He thought that Delk should be coming off the 
bench as the third guard, who brings instant offense...I have to love the 
traditional thinking. It would be interesting to see a face-off of Obie 
versus Danny of style of play. Lock up the towels...I have to admit that 
Danny has been very complimentary of Obie and how he has gotten everything 
out of the team that he can....

I haven't been surprised of the results to date. We all knew we matched up 
poorly with the Nets. Obie knew that the Nets were essentially the team to 
beat but prefers to play with his present hand. Here is where the lack of 
development of Kedrick and Baker have become so critical. We didn't have 
enough to beat the Nets last year. Why would Obie think we would have enough 
this year without improvements? Here is where I would prefer to lose more 
games in the regular season and develop players(Kedrick/Baker) and team play 
rather than the bottom line wins....

Finally, do you think Obie will make changes or enforce his stubborn will?  
What happened to the up tempo early offense that worked so well against the 
Pacers? Sure I know we can't outrun the Nets but I think it is critical for 
both our offense and defense to get some up-tempo scores. You think maybe 
Battie could set a good enough pick to get Martin off of Walker for a time? 
Going up-tempo is another way of creating irregular matchups. How about some 
Kedrick? The Nets look quicker and more athletic at every position. Maybe if 
Kedrick could shut down Jefferson, things would change. Here's hoping that 
Obie makes some changes.....

<< I don't remember exactly, but it was not positive. 
 
 This news explains the tongue-in-cheek question to Ainge by either Thompson 
or
 Harlan during last night's broadcast and his evasive answer. They asked him
 what he would do if he were running the Celtics. As I recall it, there was a
 pregnant pause, then Danny said, "trade for Kidd and Duncan", and they all 
had
 a good chuckle.
