-> DN> Well, you CAN..  I just don't think it would be a very good ide
->
->Again, why? This same team won 33 games the year before and they
->had the same  boob for a coach. I don't see them having as many
->injuries plus they'll add an  experienced head coach, who knows
->what he's doing AND they'll add some more  prospects to the mix.
->This is a team with a FINE and IMMEDIATE future, unlike  New Jersey
->and Philadelphia (I'll give Philly credit for their coach, however,
->he's going to have to slice and dice because I don't think that
->Coleman plays  even as well as he did last year).
Philadelphia is a moot issue, I'm tired of hearing you bring them up.  They
stink, they have stunk for the last 5 years and will stink for at least
another five.
New Jersey however...  is another story.  Here you have a team with Jayson
Williams,  Kittles, Jackson, Gatling, Cassell..  not to mention Montross and
Massenburg.  I will make a bet with you right now.  I say that New Jersey is
going to finish ahead of Boston in next years standings.
-> DN> question I propose to you is, do you think they will win more t
-> DN> games next year?  I say they won't.
->
->They'll win *at least* 33 games next year and yes, they could win
->as many as  40. They will NOT finish last in their division, let
->alone 6th.
Well I finally got a solid prediction out of you..  I wouldn't call "could
win as many as 40" games a:
->FINE and IMMEDIATE future
but it's something, and it is possible thanks to having 2 top draft choices.
-> DN> Ok, fine, they have money.
->
->Of course, they have money. EVERY franchise has money. The only
->franchises  that don't have AS MUCH money as some of the rest are
->Denver and Atlanta and  that's because their current arenas don't
->have 104 luxury boxes like the  Celtics do. I don't have the
->figures for last year, however, I do know that  their last season
->at the Gardens, where they pulled in nada for boxes, they  had a
->$16.7 mil PROFIT.
I don't know what I have to do to indicate to you that I've conceded a
point.. it's like you're set on continuous argue mode.
