Re: D'ellasandro: Celtics 8th in east

["Josh Ozersky" <jozersky1@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The last time I looked, how a team performed,
not how its talent looked on paper, determined
how they would do.  Though I admit, I wasn't
thinking regular season record when I was writing
about the Celtics as the 2nd best team in the east.
The Celtics will, I hope, win 48 games and come
in 3rd or 4th in the East if all goes well.  (That's
my prediction, anyway.)
