Six games into the season, the Boston Celtics stood at a woeful 1-5. The Boo-birds began to inhabit the Boston Garden, Attendance dropped and the local airwaves were aflame with people calling for the GM's head. Staring over the edge of this precipice and seeing the tarnishing of the marvelous legacy of the Celtics in the future, the General Manager made a risky move, and replaced the ineffectual Eric Williams in the line-up with scorer Chris Carr and moved the suprising DerMarr Johnson to the Small Forward position. The Celtics responded by winning 10 of the next 16 games and getting to .500 and into the playoff race. Suddenly the Garden was packed, fans were enthusiastic again and the GM's job was secured again. With certain knowledge that his teams fortunes would improve, knowledge which was latter proved correct, the GM took a trip to Atlanta for a family event. However, on arrival in Atlanta he discovered that Atlanta has absolutely no street signs and the number of competent drivers can be counted on one hand. Thus I pronounce a rivalry with the Atlanta Hawks for this slight. You're goin' down. Oh, Can I get the stats for Johnson, Carr and Ratliff please? ------------------ Charles Barkely on the Raptors defeating the Knicks in Round 1 :"I think it was the Lord.

Cat, Just wanted to post this here as well as in the lineup thread to make sure that you see it. _C - Mutumbo/McCoy PF - Robinson/Funderburke SF - Russel/Mason/Elliot SG - Jones/Elliot/Russel PG - Snow/Daniels/Anderson Defense: 1/2 court ------------------ Ambition is a poor excuse for not having enough sense to be lazy. [This message has been edited by RunninRaven (edited May 27, 2001).]
I want my team to only play defense on one half of the court, so when the sides switch baskets at the half, my team will no longer play defense at all. I meant 1/2 court trap. Thanks for catching my blunder Heath... I wish you hadn't quoted it... now I can't pull a StroShow and edit it out and pretend like you are crazy. ------------------ Ambition is a poor excuse for not having enough sense to be lazy.
It's now you can pull a StroShow as I quoted him also in my reply so it was easy to see that he edited. Wanna go for it? ------------------ The CC.net NBA Sim Board/Homepage
