	"Vast speculation?"
	LOL.
	While the team has been careful to term the operation; "minor,"  
perhaps to avoid embarrassing the medical staff, 6-8 weeks of rehab,  
suggests other wise.
	Anyway, Shira is not in your army of skeptics.

The Celtics' definition of ``minor" differs slightly from those found
in the dictionary. ``Minor" typically refers to something small in
amount, extent, or size, lesser in seriousness or importance. For the
Celtics, ``minor" apparently refers to something they don't want
drawing a lot of attention or scrutiny...............
