RE: Trade Billups Soon

[Dan <dforant1@nycap.rr.com>]

Don't misunderstand my point, I really hope Billups comes around. If he
doesn't it also insinuates the Celts staff has not done it's job in the
draft again. Don't think we are going anwhere's this year either, but we
better be going someplace next year. There's not that kind of talent in the
NBA because of expansion, so, with our staff and players, I see us making
the playoffs next year, without a doubt. I "hope" Billups is part of the
team.
