Overlooked opinions that matter

[Belanger, Roger]

You can't be serious bringing up the opinions of these guys. Come'on
now, what the heck do they know about winning? Have they ever jumped up
on a table and ripped off their shirt in the middle of a 40 win season?
Have they ever told their team that they deserve to have better players
around them so they can win? Do they even personally know any Celtic
dancers? Would they even know how to properly perform a wiggle in the
midst of a 15 win season? Need I go on??? I mean really! Yikes!!! :-)

"I didn't want them to make any trades," mused the first great Celtic.
"I don't have that kind of confidence in aging free agents, especially
guys like Garnett or Allen who haven't won anything. 
Arnold [Red Auerbach to you] did that effectively when he brought in
players like Willie Naulls, Carl Braun, Dave Bing, and Pete Maravich.
They'd come here and play 12 minutes a game and grab a ring. But you've
got to get lucky to have a Garnett come in and break his tail at 31 or
32 years old. I would rather have seen them continue with the youth
movement and take the kid from China."

"You know what happens when you are making a souffle and you mix all the
ingredients and put it in the oven?" started 
Heinsohn.   "If you take it out of the oven too soon, it flops. 
And that may be what we are doing."
