Stein's article



In nearly every point, it touches directly and indirectly on our newest
development. 
Here's  a tidbit about the Davis trade:

"Jim O'Brien did the honorable thing by walking away from guaranteed money and
telling the Boston Celtics he couldn't coach that personnel anymore. But ...
sorry. If I'm in Danny Ainge's position, I make the trade for Ricky Davis 10
times out of 10. Davis is an undeniable gamble, but Ainge was wise to roll on
the idea that Davis can accept playing second fiddle to Paul Pierce better than
he handled playing in LeBron's shadow. As much as Obie (and Celtics fans) grew
to love Eric Williams and Tony Battie, and as much as those guys are helping
Cleveland, you can reacquire players at that skill level. It's a big if, but
what if Ainge can find a coach in Boston (himself?) who can harness Ricky's
talents?"
