allen

[steve knight]

as someone who hadn't ever given up on tony allen,
even at his most boneheadedness early in the year, how
sad it is to see him go down like that, probably for
the season. he was quickly becoming the heart and soul
of the new celts. what a bummer. that said, he'll be
back. an acl is no more than a badly sprained ankle in
terms of an athlete's ability to bounce back. we'll
see him by xmas next year. remember how good he was
playing these last few weeks when he comes back and
looks brutal while he gets into his groove. he's not a
kid to give up on.  

i'm excited to see who steps up next. i don't have a
clue. i'm guessing west and jefferson, hoping for
green, gomes and rondo. 

still think the future is bright. these kids are
getting the time they need to figure things out. we
may go 0-fer the rest of the season, but like late
last season, we're getting our kids valuable court
time that will pay off in seasons to come.
