If you ask me, which I suppose you did, neither could have done it 
without the other.  With the '96 team and coach, Walker could put up all 
the numbers in the world and the Celtics probably still win 20 games.  
On the other hand, hard work and focus on winning only go so far.  There 
has to be some talent there to execute the plan.  Walker was the center 
piece to the plan that Pitino put together.  

So, why did I just post the list saying Walker's not ready for the big 
bucks?  Because all Walker has proven is that he can carry us to a sub 
.500, playoff missing season.  That doesn't cut it with me and, I 
suspect, most Celtics fans.
