No way, Gene!  Thompson was a terrible coach even in college;
he's the reason we lost the gold medal and had to form the dream
team.  Anyway, the last thing the Celtics need is a rookie coach.
Give me a stable, proven NBA veteran.  Doug Moe with tough
defensive assistants would be my "out there" pick.

> Guys.  It's been too close to us for us to see it.  John Thompson should
be our coach.  It hit me while driving home a minute ago.  He's about 62,
I'm guessing, and still in touch with coaching, he has a Celtic heritage, he
can handle big men, he can intimidate anyone, he can coach--he's our man!

play knowing that the refs wouldn't call all of them.  They were essentially
bullies on the court, but that doesn't mean he can't coach.  He has my vote.
Cheers, Gene
