ESPN chat with Nazr Mohammed

["Jim Meninno" <jim_meninno@hotmail.com>]

The Celtics were mentioned a couple of times...

Daryll Campbell: Congratulations on being selected in the first round of 
the NBA Draft. My question to you is do you feel betrayed by Rick Pitino 
and the Boston Celtics organization for them not selecting you with the 
No. 10 pick and taking Paul Pierce? 

Nazr Mohammed: No, because he went for who he felt was the best player 
for that team at that pick. 


Celtic Pride: Can you explain your relationship with Antoine Walker? Was 
he disappointed you were not drafted by the Celtics? 

Nazr Mohammed: We're close -- he's one of my best friends. We both would 
have loved the opportunity to play together. He wanted me there in 
Celtic green. 


Dan: Has coach Pitino spoken to you since draft day, to congratulate you 
and give you any advice? 

Nazr Mohammed: No, we haven't had the opportunity to speak yet.
