RE: Mavs now Twan's team

["Adam Patterson" <apat2848@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I wouldn't be surprised to see Antoine turn into an NBA journeyman of
sorts, similar to the way Ron Mercer has. He'll wind up with a role on
the bench and gloat about the days when he 'led' the Celtics to the EC
finals. 

I used to be an avid Walker supporter but now I can see the light-
Antoine was and still is a team cancer. Good riddens.

PS I was slightly sad to see Delk go, that guy can flat-out shoot.

It's just a matter of time until Nellie figures this out. Twan gets his
numbers, and the Mavs score 71 points. It's sad - this team used to be
fun
to watch. What will Nellie do? Plant him on the end of the bench? Look
for
another trade? He's stuck between a rock and a hard place.

Walker
took the ball in the post at a critical point late in the game with the
Mavs
down by three and got stuffed twice by Bosh and ended up with a jump
ball
that
they lost. Mavs lose. Sound familar?

Yeah, he shot a very familiar 6-20 and committed high-even-for-him 9
turnovers.
Less familiar are the 17 rebounds. When was the last time he did that?!
It
will
be interesting to see if he will develop a similar "grasp" on the Mavs
as he
did on the Celtics, and how that will affect that team. I bet the Mavs
boards,
once the initial exhilaration over the "steal" that they got in Toine is
over,
will start sounding more and more like this list did for the last 6 or
so
years.
