    Jim O'Brien on Cat and Franchise:

    "Their backcourt of Francis and Mobley is dynamite," Celtics coach Jim O'Brien said. "There's no better young backcourt in the league."

    Why does everybody keep saying 'best young backcourt'. Why can't they flat out say, 'best backcourt in the league'. It is really annoying me. Name a better backcourt then them, and I don't just mean scoring wise. Iverson and Stackhouse(and their backcourt mates) are ahead in scoring but only because AI and Stack score 30 a game. I think its goning be our 'best young backcourt' that takes us to the playoffs

    <a href="http://www.chron.com/cs/CDA/story.hts/sports/829258">Today's article in the Chronicle</a> has a different take on that with this quote from Jim Obrien:

    "Their backcourt of Francis and Mobley is probably the best in the league," Celtics coach Jim O'Brien said. "Houston can space you and `iso' you, and they caused us a million different problems."

    I wonder when he said. First he says best young backcourt, and then best backcourt, he probably had a good look at the game tape and realized he could do absolutely nothing to stop them. These two are a tough matchup for any team. [​IMG]
