Celts to win Atlantic

[Berry, Mark S]

Theo is having back surgery and is officially out for the year, by the
way.

Last night's game was very encouraging and I continue to see some good
things. They need to do it consistently. That's the challenge for young
players. Anyway, Al is for real, Gerald is a mega-talent, and both
Delonte and Telfair looked good last night. Good stuff.

Mark

haven't posted for awhile, what more can be said about this train wreck,
but did you just say theo ratliff would be the difference maker?  Is
alex goldblatt come sort of code name for Danny Ainge?

The only difference Theo Ratliff would make is 5 more fouls per game and
a case of arthritis.

The team has problems, mostly from a lack of bb IQ standpoint.  We
either draft dumb players, have a dumb coach, or a combination of the
two.  Gerald and Al show promise, the rest show Greg Oden (which is
fine).
