Banks

[Douglas342@xxxxxxx]

Damn, I get tired of this crap every so often.  Banks has played in  TWO 
GAMES IN HIS NBA CAREER and there are those ready to trash him.  Fine, he didn't 
score 20 and get 10 assists, so forget that he's a rookie and cut him now.  
Just get it over with.  Hell, Jumaine Jones hasn't scored a point for the Cs 
either - cut him too!  

Now, I want Kedrick to do well, and still think he can, but I'll concede that 
his viability is certainly open to debate, more than I wish it were.  But 
Banks?  Look at Chicago, where they took the two high school kids a few years 
back.  Brown and Curry?  They are in their third year and are just starting to 
become solid pros.  Yeah, straight out of HS, but if they get three years, can't 
we give Banks, oh, four or five games?  No, I guess not.  Better bring in a 
"veteran leader" like Rod "There Ain't a Franchise That Hasn't Traded Me" 
Strickland.  

Nicknames:  I don't like them.  Give my player an unfavorable nickname, then 
I give yours one, then we start trashing each other.  Is it not possible to 
discuss the Celtics without getting into personal wars?  Evidently not.  How sad.
