No, Dave, make it even clearer......

Try NBA, Dave or do you want to ignore that?
You overlook a heck of a lot in order to *try* to make the Celtics' immediate 
future look bleak. They've got a damn good base to work with AND even if they 
lose most of the 10 players that they have eligible for free agency, there's 
still quite a bit of good talent that's going to be available next year 
through free agency (Centers like Brian Williams and Travis Knight are going 
to be too expensive for their former teams while Gheorge Muresan might find a 
home away from home if the Wizards decide to utilize Webber as their main man 
at center). The talent THIS year won't match what's coming out next year, 
however, it's good enough.

Puhleeze, Dave. You certainly have overlooked a lot of facts in order to make 
YOUR assessment. The San Antonio Spurs are proof enough how much a team can 
spiral because of injuries AND next year, they'll be proof enough about how 
much a team can bounce back (along with Boston) when they overcome those 
injuries. If you look back through history, what happened to Boston AND San 
Antonio last season has happened several times (though not as badly as it 
happened with San Antonio).
